The Art of Transition

Der Herbst ist eine Zeit des Übergangs. Die Tage werden kürzer, das Licht verändert sich und die Natur zieht sich langsam nach innen zurück. Sie erinnert uns daran, dass alles in ständiger Veränderung ist.

In diesem Jivamukti Yoga Special begleiten uns Abhyāsa und Vairāgya: die beständige Rückkehr zu unserer Praxis und die Fähigkeit, loszulassen. In einer dynamischen Asana-Praxis richten wir unsere Aufmerksamkeit nicht nur auf die einzelnen Haltungen, sondern auch auf den Raum dazwischen.

The Art of Transition ist eine Einladung, Stabilität zu finden, ohne starr zu werden, und Veränderung zuzulassen, ohne den eigenen Halt zu verlieren – auf der Matte und darüber hinaus.

Śrī Kṛṣṇa Śaraṇaṃ Mama ✨
“Krishna is my refuge.”

This September, our Focus of the Month is All You Need Is Love.

Krishna represents divine love – a love that is always present, beyond changing feelings and circumstances. This mantra reminds us that we don’t have to search for this love outside of ourselves. We can trust it and find refuge in it. 🤍

Thank you Mona for sharing the chords with me. 🙏

Practice with me:
Wednesday · 7:30–8:30 AM
Friday · 6:00–7:15 PM

He Govinda, He Gopala,
He Vasudeva, He Nityananda,
Shri Radhe Radhe Radhe,
Radhe Radhe Radhe Shyam.

This mantra calls upon Krishna and Radha through different names. In the Bhakti tradition, repeating these names is a practice of remembrance, of love, devotion, and our connection to something greater than ourselves.

Sometimes it is enough to simply let the sound wash over us and allow ourselves to be carried by the chant.

One year ago, I completed my Jivamukti Teacher Training. At the time, it felt like the end of a meaningful chapter. Looking back now, I realize it was only the beginning.

This past year has taught me that learning never truly ends. The deeper I step into the practice, the more I discover how much there is still to learn, not only about yoga, but also about myself. Every class, every conversation, every challenge and every moment of practice continues to be part of that learning.

I am deeply grateful to @lan_spiritual_bliss for welcoming me into the teaching team and giving me the opportunity to grow within this community. Being part of the Center has been such a gift. It has become a place where I feel supported, inspired, and encouraged to keep evolving.

I am equally grateful for the community and all the people who make this space what it is. Through your presence, openness, and practice, you create an environment where growth feels possible and where I am learning not only to teach, but also to trust myself more deeply.

As I begin my JTAP journey, I am excited to continue learning with my mentor, @truth_tester. I am looking forward to being guided, challenged, and inspired by her experience and wisdom.

One year after graduation, I feel more certain than ever that yoga is a lifelong path. And I feel incredibly fortunate to walk that path alongside such wonderful teachers, mentors, and friends.

Thank you for being part of the journey. 🙏🏻

I always appreciate the Focus of the Month because it gives me an opportunity to reflect and reconnect.

This month, Gopala — the child form of Krishna — reminds me that even as adults, we don’t have to take life so seriously all the time.

There is still a child within us: playful, curious, and open-hearted. A part of us that helps us stay connected to ourselves and, through that, to others.

Whenever I thought about obstacles, my mind used to jump to the obvious ones: hard exams, stressful deadlines, big challenges we can point at. Ganesha gently reminds me to pause.

Because the biggest obstacles are often not what happens outside of us. They live in our thoughts.
In resistance, expectations, and the stories we keep repeating.

When we stop clinging to the highs and fighting the lows, something shifts. The mind softens.
And the path clears on its own.

May Ganesha help us move through life with more trust, presence, and ease — clearing not only the road ahead, but also the space within. 🤍

Bending into the future

Für mich ist der Atem viel mehr als nur Luft, die in den Körper strömt. Er zeigt mir, was in mir los ist – manchmal ruhig, manchmal schwer, manchmal gehetzt. Er macht meine Emotionen spürbar und gibt mir Orientierung in Momenten, in denen ich selbst nicht weiß, wohin mit mir.

Im Leben wie im Yoga erinnert er mich daran, dass ich immer wieder zu mir zurückfinden kann – Atemzug für Atemzug. ✨

Leaning into trust, bending towards the future. Backbends remind us that opening up isn’t always easy – in yoga, as in life – but it’s in those moments of challenge that courage grows. And with every breath, the heart learns to trust a little more – in its own time, at its own pace.

thank you all for the wishes so far, my heart feels wide open 🥲💖
