Happiness is your creation. It begins in your mind and heart, and manifests in your actions. We have so much power and control in our lives that we often take this for granted. We invest the time into whining, and complaining, and being miserable. ... All we need is a change in our attitude. A little space to complain and move on. If we get stuck in the space of misery, everything around becomes this misery. The more we identify with this misery, the likelihood of attracting more of the same is unavoidable. We have to keep moving and returning to the space of gratitude and unconditional love. Always come back home. #manasayoganyc #yoga #ayurveda #psychology

The ego allows you to experience the world through your mind and senses. It is a critically important psychological function. Being on a spiritual path is about creating balance between spirit and ego. It's about being friends with yourself and it is NOT about eradicating your ego.... #manasayoganyc #yoga #ayurveda #mentalwellness #mentalhealth

The word karma is frequently used and is often misunderstood. Karma is a word in Sanskrt language. It is an ancient language and it is taught that it is one of the languages that directly speaks to the Universe. Karma simply means action. To do anything is to take action and, therefore, is to create karma.... Karma begins in the mind; to think thoughts is to create karma. The Universal Law of Karma simply means that every action (cause) has a reaction (effect). It is super important for a true seeker on a path to Self-realization to always be aware of what is happening in the mind. The Universal Law of Karma is the reason why we must be vigilant to not allow any psychological phenomenon to occur in the mind without our full awareness of it. According to yogic scriptures, in order to become Self-realized, we must have 0 karma. So the next time you use the word karma, know that you are using a word from a sacred text that has deep meaning and context. #manasayoganyc #yoga #ayurveda #karma #psychology

The answers you seek are within. No one around you knows who you are or what you need. Know your body. Know your mind. Know your heart. Know yourself. ... This life is your responsibility.
