Ahimsa: Meditate For World Peace

Afghan-ChildWith all the struggle and war in the world, yoga gives us a method to live well and contribute to the upliftment of the world.

It helps us be courageous when faced with fear, find equanimity in times of struggle, and be empowered when things feel overwhelming.

I’ve posted an article which expands on Ahimsa, the first ethical guideline of yoga. This article on How To Create Peace With Yoga And Meditation and offers an educated view of war and what we can do about it.

You will also find a video of a guided meditation for peace toward the end of the article, which means you can close your eyes and listen rather than reading the words of your meditation today.

Awakening the World

How many times have you wished the people of the world would wake up, choose peace, and decide to live happily together on this beautiful planet?

Well, the good news is that the world IS awakening. 

And you are a part of it… 

Yoga is quickly becoming an aspect in the lives of many. 

The physical and meditative practices, uplifting philosophy, and increased awareness of yoga provides support and inspiration, creating an integrated web of open minded, light hearted people who share a similar vision of enlightened existence.

The extended family of yogis and yoginis is creating quite a community. One that comes together to celebrate life and remember their connection with a bigger energy. 

This web of consciousness has been built on the foundation of ancient wisdom and the efforts of every human being that has graced this planet with a life of service and love.

When you step mindfully onto your mat, or sit with awareness for meditation, you tap into unfathomable power. 

Through yoga you can transform your experience of the world, and as you feel more freedom, joy, and awareness of the interconnectedness of all things, your energy ripples out to touch the hearts and minds of others. 

Together we co-participate in the Awakening of the World!
