....and next week my friends, yours truly is going to Izu for one week(13-19) to fast and detox. This body and mind is so very ready for that powerful experience If you have never fasted I highly recommend it. This will be my 3rd time and each time I am in awe and amazed at the benefits and quick fixes that fasting offers!!! Your body not only begins to cleanse and release the toxins but your mind truly gets sharper, more aware, you feel lighter, brighter and more connected to all that is around you. It also leads one to greater appreciation for things we so often take for granted like water and our food.

Hope to see you in class this week and please grab a friend, spouse, lover , any one you care about and come to this sweet, special and heart centered gathering!!

Peace, Love and Light to each and everyone of you...........Rebecca

2nd Chakra Gathering - The Sweetness of Svadhisthana

2011-01-11T18:35:00.001-08:00

Chakra Gatherings with Rebecca

The Second Chakra – Svadhisthana

I AM CREATIVE

The second chakra is the foundation of the emotional body and influences our ability to feel emotions, sensations and to let go of our emotions. It is our source of creativity and inspiration. Also known as the sacral chakra or sexual chakra, the second chakra is located in the lower abdomen in the area of the womb and involves change. The consciousness of this chakra derives from flow, duality, and the attraction of opposites.

The second chakra influences our sexuality and sensuality, physical force, sexual and ardent love, open-mindedness, and our ability to yield and cooperate amiably with other people. This chakra physically influences the lower abdomen, spleen, liver, bladder, kidneys, sexual organs, reproduction and fertility.

When the sacral chakra is balanced, we feel healthy, open, friendly, imaginative and creative which helps us to focus on our objectives. This chakra encourages intuition, energy and success. This can manifest as:

•Ability to initiate

•Empathy with others

•Generosity and willingness to share

•Genuine intimacy

•Mutually empowering relationships

•Passion for life

When this chakra is unbalanced/blocked, it can manifest as:

•Exhibitionism

•Inadequacy

•Shallow relationships

•Emotional problems or sexual guilt

•Excesses in food, sex and drugs

If this chakra is not working properly it creates negative influences, such as bladder infections, impotence or frigidity and problems with the reproductive organs and fertility. If this chakra has too much energy moving through it, we may become self-centered and too ambitious, jealous, distrusting and cold. If too little energy is flowing then we may become shy, hyper-sensitive, untrusting, confused, uncertain, with a growing feeling of aimlessness to our life.

Aids in unblocking and balancing the Sacral Chakra:  We can help to balance this chakra by dancing, laughing and having a good time with our friends. The person centered in this chakra needs the freedom to be creative. They will tend to indulge their desires.

Dear Dear Friends...........just back from a very sweet SE Asian experience. Jakarta, Bali and Singapore. I was blessed to teach at the first Jakarta Yoga Festival and it was amazing. Everyone was so open, excited and grateful to attend the festival. About 500 yogis attended and much was shared and enjoyed by all. Bali was blissful and so beautiful as always. It is the most creative, artistic and wonder-full place for me. There are endless expressions of beauty and possibilities there. I had a week long holyday with Bruce(hubby)in a stunning villa overlooking the lush verdant green rice paddies, daily massages:):):),many moments of just being!!! Then my old home Singapore. Just 2 days but saw so many special friends and taught class to so many of my first students. All very special and heart warming!

Now home and waiting for all my 4 "birdies"(sons) to return to the Nest for year end celebrations together!!! Feeling so so happy that we can all come together again. When I see the boys all together it just reminds me of the incredible speed of time these days. So guys, stay present, fully in the moment so you don't miss a precious moment.

Wishing each and every one of you a sweet, sacred and joy-filled year end. May all your gatherings, reunions, parties and practices this time of year be infused with Peace, Light and Love..................Rebecca

Heart Song Circle with Kevin James

2010-11-26T22:42:00.000-08:00

Just back from a magical retreat in Kyushu... which I will share with you later.

In the meantime, I'm very happy to announce that I will be hosting Kevin James' Heart Song Circle at my home on Tuesday, November 30 from 7pm.

Please read on for more information..... hope to connect with you on Tuesday!

Weaving ancient Mantra’s from various traditions with his own heartsong, Kevin James’ anthemic songs are an effective platform to dissolve the ego, reconnect to the heart and co-create a positive vibration for the world. Kevin draws upon influences from traditional Indian Kirtan, Celtic and Sufi chants and world music , with his own wisdom and a deep understanding of universal truths.

Kevin creates a free and open sacred space where everyone is encouraged to express themselves through Sacred song and spontaneous dance.

Kevin and his partner Mel have spent the last 2 years touring Asia where their music has been well received. Featuring at the Bali Spirit Festival and the Asia Yoga conference in Hong Kong last year. They have held workshops and retreats in Taiwan, Japan, Kuala Lumpur and Indonesia, with the response being so overwhelming that they have been invited back once again for 2011.

Regardless of your religious or philosophical beliefs, you can find a commonality or kinship with the music of Kevin James and a respect for all paths to God or self-awareness.

“There is a renaissance of people who are more interested in celebrating what we have in common rather than our differences.” And this is what is captured and felt through this music.

“I believe we are taking a huge leap in consciousness, things are changing so fast for everyone and now is the time when it can be beneficial for us to look back, in order to move forward. Devotional singing has been a part of almost every culture and religion of the world throughout recorded history. It reconnects us to our centre, brings balance and peace to the mind and a break from the ego. By devoting our attention to a greater power than the conceptual self, we can expand our awareness beyond the ego, to enter the bliss of the heart.”

Kevin believes it’s all about holding space and being an empty vessel for every one to unite or unify.
“Within every song there is room for freedom. Where the different choruses can overlap and it’s my intention to lead the group to a point where there is no leader anymore. A space where everyone is guided by their own heart, where we are all singing as one voice. This leaves the participants feeling empowered and part of a unified whole.

Energy exchange: up to you!

October Classes

2010-09-30T01:38:00.003-07:00

Oh the delicious bitter-sweetness of Autumn......... as we move into Fall, the season of breathtaking colours, Thanksgiving, and greater awareness of change, I feel myself opening ,even more, to doors closing and new ones opening.

I have always felt very sentimental (who me???) about autumn. It has always been my favourite season. Growing up in Chicago I remember raking big piles of leaves in my backyard and then jumping into them. In those days we even use to burn the piles of gathered leaves and the smell was so beautiful. I always found it so magical how those intense green leaves would change colours and transform

into flaming jewels on the trees......and you know how I love jewels:). Anybody remember "Taffy Apples"???

So.... as the leaves begin to fall go to the parks my friends and let Mother Nature crunch under your feet..........it's great for our souls and our soles!!!

Class Schedule for October:

Mondays......4th, 11th , 18th from 10am-11:30am

Wednesdays......6th, 13th, 20th from 7:30pm-9:00pm

What a summer this has been!!!!! I spent almost 6 weeks in the US, Chicago and NYC. I started at my Mother's home in Chicago, in the home I grew up in from the age of 8, so many memories and feelings arise when going back to our childhood homes, powerful! My Mom is now 84 and is a constant source of inspiration, and joy to me. She truly is a natural yogini in that she doesn't hold on to any thoughts or feelings that do not serve her well. Now she does this as she smokes 2 packs of cigarettes a day between 10 cups of coffee........who's to say what really works? I pray I have her genes!!!

I spent 7 days in Chicago going to a course with Andrew Harvey, the founder of a beautiful and important movement called "Sacred Activism". Please take a moment and look him up on utube or his website under his name. He has many powerful ,poetic and relevant messages to share.

I then flew off to NYC, spent some wonderful time with Jake, my eldest son now living in NYC. I do love that crazy, vibrant off the wall city. I went to several Broadway show, ate at far too many yummy restaurants and even went dancing in a very "colourful" gay bar one night..........the best place to dance!!!

Then attended 2 powerful retreats at Omega Institute, a really good place to know about. 6 months of the year they offer wonderful holistic programs in a beautiful natural surrounding.........highly recommend that place. Spent one week in a "Goddess Bootcamp", what a blast and then a week with my Kundalini teacher, Gurmukh........big blessings, all of it!

And now back home in sweet Japan. I really do love this country. It is blessed with a very gracious and sweet energy. I love to travel but love to call this country home now.

A WINTER WONDERLAND

It was such a treat being in and seeing so much snow...................I think it's been 15 years since I was last in so much snow. These photos were taken in Nigata at Mt. Naeba. As I was watching the snow fall, which it did for 72 hours non-stop I had this wonderful thought...........OK I'll share it:):):)

Dearest Friends.........a very blissful and warm hello to you from beautiful Bali!!! So much has happened the past 21/2 weeks since I've been traveling. I feel I've been out of Tokyo for at least a month. I had a very powerful and amazing fast in Koh Samui. I'm in awe of how quickly fasting helps us to regain our health, balance and well being. I highly recommend fasting, at least once a year. Maybe next time we will all go as a group together!

Then had a very special time in Singapore, teaching, seeing my old students and friends and revisiting places I had often gone to during my ten years living there.

And now I'm in beautiful, blissful Bali. Such a special, sacred, artistic and unique place. It's such an honour to go to a country which blends their spiritual life with their everyday life in such a open, honest and heartfelt way. I always feel very re-energized after I have been here.

SO now my friends I want to take this time to wish and pray that this New Year of 2010 will bring to all of us, to our families, friends and Mother Earth so much Joy, Love , Harmony and true inner Peace. May you each remember and experience your perfection and reconnect with your Highest Self...........

I have missed you all and look so forward to sharing, being together in community and creating sacred spaces together in 2010. Our next class together will be at my home on: Wednesday the 6th at 7:30 pm Thursday the 8th at 2pm. I will post more info soon about others classes etc.

MAY THE LONG TIME SUN SHINE UPON YOU
ALL LOVE SURROUND YOU
AND THE PURE LIGHT WITHIN YOU
GUIDE YOUR WAY ON

PEACE TO ALL....LIGHT TO ALL....LOVE TO ALL
