Guest Post: Dealing with Emotions in a Yoga Practice by Jeff Welch

December 21, 2013 By Jeff Welch 3 Comments

Guest Post by Jeff Welch: I’ve been on these roller coaster rides of emotion lately. Right now I feel so happy and grateful. Two hours ago I was kinda depressed and frustrated. A few hours before that I was indifferent. What’s going on with me? “Oh right – it’s called being a human.” These ups and downs are part of… View Post

Confronting the Anger Demon on The Yogi Movement

Guest Post By Kelli Hastings: I recently decided I wanted to go camping alone in the woods for at least one night. I imagined that my campsite would be secluded and surrounded by forest, with no other campers within eye or earshot, giving me a real chance to deal with whatever shadows arose within me during my alone time.

What Is My Life Purpose? How Do I Live Out My True Potential?

December 15, 2013 By Monica Stone 2 Comments

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about karma, death, rebirth, samsara – all of that stuff. I feel like we’re on a constant chase in life. I’m so guilty of it too. I constantly catch myself saying things like, “I’ll be happy when…” Even though I know I have the choice to be happy all of the time, it’s really… View Post

Practicing With Pain: Finding The Balance Of Effort & Comfort

December 10, 2013 By Monica Stone 1 Comment

I know I know, I’m sick of seeing articles about yoga and pain too! It seems like everyone has a strong opinion on how to practice when you’re feeling pain in yoga practice. Some teachers say that you should never feel pain and to rest, and others say pain is normal and to continue practice. I’m sure this has to do with… View Post

Roasted Brussel Sprouts & Leeks – Thanksgiving & Channukkah 2013

December 7, 2013 By Monica Stone 4 Comments

Hi Everyone! Thanksgiving was last week, and since I’m the vegetarian in the family, I have the job of making veggie side dish. Maybe it’s the season, but for some reason, all I could think about was brussel sprouts, so that’s what I decided to make. When I mentioned this to my friends, I actually got some dirty looks because… View Post

Testimonials

  • Jaime ShearerJaime ShearerYoga Student Since 2012

    Monica is dedicated to her own practice and the true path of yoga - the one of personal experience - which makes her an outstanding teacher. She is warm and easy to talk with, and she allows the student to have their own experience on the mat. She explains postures and breath in ways that are understandable so that the student "gets it." She makes yoga real and tangible in ways that truly serve the student. Work with Monica. You'll be glad you did.

  • Jacob AbercrombieJacob AbercrombieYoga Student Since 2011

    have always wanted to try yoga, but was always nervous. Monica took that fear away and made me feel like i was the only one in class with a room full of strangers. She is able to work with multiple students during the same move and still make it a personalized class for one.

  • Serena JonesSerena JonesYoga Student Since 2010

    Monica has been a highly influential teacher to me. She creates a safe environment for learning and practice. I have always felt grounded in her classes, and she pushes me beyond my own expectations. She inspires and motivates! I can't imagine my life without sharing a path with her!

  • Angela OrofinoAngela OrofinoYoga Student Since 2011

    Monica is a caring, wise, thoughtful, and talented yoga instructor. She has an in-depth knowledge of the philosophy and spirituality of Ashtanga yoga. My previous yoga experience had mostly just been at my local gym. Luckily, last year I found Monica. She has been guiding my practice at least once a week since then. As a newcomer to Ashtanga yoga, Monica made me feel comfortable and had the patience to teach me the basics. She also encouraged me to start an at home practice so that I was able to obtain a deeper understanding of Ashtanga. Monica is always encouraging and lets me know in subtle ways when she feels that I am ready to move deeper into my practice. I feel that the growth in my practice over the last year has been tremendous. Not only do I notice the change in me but others around me do as well. I am so grateful to have found Monica!

  • Sasha TamarSasha TamarYoga Student Since 2012

    I’ve come across many a yoga instructor over the years, but Monica stands out as genuinely amiable, as she glows with an infectious inner light, and highly devoted to and passionate about her practice. Her dedication to Ashtanga as a lifestyle is very clear, and creates for a contagious motivating force. Every time I’ve practiced with her, she eagerly transmits her devotion and passion of Ashtanga and meditation to everyone in class; she makes the most fledgling beginner feel at home, and simultaneously challenges the more advanced students. While I only practice Ashtanga with her, I know she provides therapeutic yoga sessions as well as meditation. And, if her methods of guiding students out of the Ashtanga vigor into the more meditative savasana are indicative of her meditational techniques, I’d recommend her to anyone
