Winter Email Content

​The winter solstice issue of Canadian Yogi posts December 21st.
Our winter issue focuses on yoga and the heart–mind connection. See what our members have to say on this and other topics at canadianyogi.com. Here’s a sampling of the articles you’ll find online:
Picture
In Heart–Mind Connection Violet Pasztor speaks of energetically connecting our hearts and minds to create communities of cooperation.
Picture
Yves Panneton’s Defining Yoga looks at yoga as a holistic practice that reduces the dissonance we experience between the plurality of human experience and the unity of creation. He looks briefly at different types of yoga and their approaches for resolving this dissonance.
Picture
Yoga and the Heart–Mind Connection — Ayurveda Style: Mona Warner frames the body-breath-heart–mind connection within the Ayurvedic tradition and looks at how the eight limbs of yoga open doorways into the body’s channels, decreasing ama and supporting the flow of prana.
Picture
In Move From Within, Samatha Howick looks at the heart–mind–body connection through the viewpoint of the koshas.  ​
Picture
Elizabeth Martin’s article looks at how the physical practice of yoga can be a bridge between the body, heart and mind, rebuilding internal connections and creating The Upward Spiral of Health.  ​
Picture
In Emotions and Your Yoga Practice Charlene Jones explores the need for emotional expression and release in asana practice and the dangers of exercising willpower to sustain and drive a yoga practice.
Picture
Marianne Turner sees love as being at “the heart of the matter”. In Shining the Light on the Heart Mind Connection she says forgiveness and self-acceptance are the keys to awakening the heart’s potential.
Picture
“This to me is yoga — the light to a reality that doesn't colour life but removes the veils of reaching, grasping and non-allowance. It isn't so much that this knowledge frees me but it now connects me to what life brings” — so says Jason Loutitt in The Greatest Distance.
Picture
Vicki Bashista was inspired by our winter theme to create a class for her 5–9 year-old students. Her article A Kindergarten to Grade 4 Perspective on the Heart–Mind Connection outlines that class and provides the children’s artistic response to the theme.
Picture
Yogacharya Dr. Binod Baral provides instruction in a pranayama for activating the centre of inner salvation in his article Yoga–Meditation–Pranayama — Samadhi.
Picture
Cannabis and Meditation is Canadian Yoga Alliance faculty member Yves Panneton’s answer to an inquiry from Weedmaps™ on whether or not cannabis is a good catalyst for meditation.
Gopala Amir Yaffa shares 14 Effective Meditations for Young Children that will engage young and old alike. The holiday season may be the perfect time to practice “Stop and Listen”. 
In Erase the Ego, Heidi Joffe, a long time Ashtanga/Vinyasa practitioner, shares how a serendipitous Hatha class gave her a chance to begin again and reawaken within her practice.
Picture
Marianne Turner’s passion for practicing and teaching yin yoga is the focus of Hello what is Yin?
Picture
In Beautiful People Do Not Just Happen Jennifer Farrell details her struggle with an easting disorder and the roles that therapy, meditation and yoga have played in her recovery.
Picture
Community and Personal Growth is April Bellington’s shout out to all of the people that have helped her find a path away from anxiety and depression through CrossFit, yoga and, ultimately, yoga teacher training.
