Kundalini Yoga
with Cynthia Male

Resolve, Resolutions and Relationships

Resolve: to find a solution to a problem; to be firmly determined to do something

Resolution: the quality of being determined or to have purposefulness

Relationship: the way in which two or more concepts, objects or people are connected

These three beginning of the year Kundalini Yoga classes reference the relationship we have with our resolution.  Be it our New Year’s Resolution or just our firm determination or purposefulness, what is our relationship to the activities or qualities we aim for. 

Flat out, your relationship with all things must come from your highest self, that self that is informed by and serves your God, whoever and however your God explains itself to you.  If your expression comes from this aspect of yourself, you will succeed.

 Your best support group is your very own Authentic Self.

From the Apple Head, Soldier of Love himself,

“We’re on a mission in the everlasting light that shines,

A revelation of the Truth in chapters of our minds

We’re gonna shake it and break it up.

We’re sharing light brighter than the sun.

We’re here to stimulate, eliminate and congregate.

Illuminate!

We are here to change the world.”

I love you MJ

Keeping the Faith

Class #1 - Creating a relationship with our authentic self, our best support group.

• Be clear to self- what needs to get done
• See yourself at the end – what needs to change
• Observe the friendship you have with your higher Authentic Self
• Nurture it as you would any relationship that is valuable to you.  Talk to Self and Listen
• Become attached, be passionate, be intimate with your Higher Authentic Self. 
• From this space you gain security, fearlessness, determination and will

Oya Orishna Goddess of Change (Congo, Haiti) / Kali Goddess of Death and Destruction

Oya swivels her hips with nine scarves that create winds of change as she moves.

You cant expect change too fast or you create a hurricane and destroy what you have built from.

Class #2 – Compassion for yourself not only keeps you from wasting time and energy reliving unsuccessful attempts at change, but also you heal the past so that you can stay firmly rooted in the present.  All compassion for others comes from the foundation of compassion that you have for yourself.  Compassion replaces sympathy and any other type of emotional compensation you may have for another, thus allowing you to move forward and stay focused.
