Hello Parents and Teachers -- Happy New Year! I hope this finds you well. Our focus in January, which is National Creating Balance in Life Month, is on CREATING BALANCE! We juggle work and family; as parents we walk a tightrope between being too firm and too passive in disciplining our children; we strive for harmony with our spiritual, physical and intellectual selves. We all seek balance. Enjoy the opportunities, ideas and stories in this issue to help guide you towards equilibrium and to help you find the "flow". As my gift to you in the new year, please print out the new 2007 Parent's Top Ten List . CLICK HERE or on the icon of numbers below for your list. Three teleseminars this month also provide new ideas and skills, all on a difference aspect of balance. Wishing You Well -- Maggie |
Shri Yogi Hari is a Master of Hatha, Raja and Nada Yoga. He is internationally known and respected as an inspiring teacher. In 1975 Yogi Hari retired from the worldly life and spent seven years in the Sivananda Ashram where he immersed himself fully in Yoga Sadhana. Yogi Hari says, "Today's trend is to fragmentation, getting lost in one detail and losing sight of the whole. When applied to yoga, this tendency is a great waste. My teachings of Sampoorna Yoga are meant to help you to discover the fullness of yoga and how to use it in order to access the fullness within you." As stated so well on his website, "Sampoorna Yoga is the fruit of Yogi Hari’s tireless striving for perfection in his practice and teaching. It is the yoga of fullness that intelligently integrates Hatha, Raja, Karma, Bhakti, Jnana and Nada Yoga. His approach is deep, simple and practical and helps people from every background to live a richer, happier life based on lasting yogic values. The basic teaching is that health, peace and joy are already within you." Please visit www.yogihari.com for more on all of the offerrings at Yogi Hari's beautiful Miramar ashram, a place to restore balance. |
Life lessons can come from unexpected places. I have learned much about myself from the game of racquetball. In fact, I have learned a great deal over the years about all aspects life and living on the racquetball court. Here are some of the more important lessons that have come from the court: 1. People play better when they are encouraged. It's true in life, too. People do better when they are encouraged, rather than criticized, condemned and judged. 2. When two or more people occupy a small space, they should learn to share. It goes for planets, too. 3. The only way to get better is to practice. And in life, the only way to improve relationships, learn courage or be happy is to practice. 4. Pay attention. Those who lose their focus, lose games. And those people who are too distracted by yesterday or tomorrow will never live today fully and joyously. Focus on the present. 5. There are always people who will do better than you. But your job is not to be the best, it is to do your best. 6. Attitude really is everything. When you believe in your success, visualize it and work toward it, you are more likely to succeed. 7. Losses are lessons. When I lose a game so badly that I am humiliated on the court, I thank my opponent for the free lesson. Failures are not endings; they are valuable opportunities to learn. 8. It isn't over until the last point is scored. Many victories are snatched after one comes back from almost insurmountable odds. So it is with life. 9. Work can be fun, but fun should never become merely work. Life is to be enjoyed. 10. The only way to score is to serve. Individuals and institutions that make a difference find ways to serve others. Additionally, those people who are happiest and most satisfied with their lives have learned to serve. Great lives are built on service.
