There are many things in life that seem to damage, dent or even break our spirit. The pressures of day to day existence, natural disasters, diseases, grief of loss, but perhaps the biggest one for me is how people treat and behave towards other people. It breaks my spirit to see humans intentionally causing suffering towards other humans, in this day and age, should almost be eradicated. Whether it’s inside a family home or separated parenting, a workplace, a city, country or between countries. We must do our best to reduce human suffering towards each other. This can be achieved through becoming more conscious of the impact of our thoughts, words and actions towards others. I get it, no one is perfect and mistakes are made, but this is why we practice yoga. To open our mind to compassion, to contemplate on life, to move energy in the body (including hormones and neurotransmitters), to feel steady and at ease in life.
Ministry of Yoga is dedicated to providing you a space to do this, a place where you can come and nurture your spirit back into joy and reinforce positive imprints (samskaras) on your soul. It’s time to focus on spiritual health along with physical and mental wellbeing.
We have daily classes at the studio in Lisbon, Portugal. Ranging from dynamic, invigorating practices such as Rocket, Vinyasa, Flow and Kundalini, to balancing energetic practices like Hatha and YinYang, to meditative and deep release of Yin and Restorative yoga. You’ll find we dedicate all of our classes to the practice of yoga…. nothing but yoga. http://www.moyportugal.com/timetable
