I adore the community and having the opportunity to interact with it. I follow photographers, fashionistas, videographers, designers, news outlets, artists, and of course,\u00a0<span class=\"s2\">yogis<\/span>.\u00a0Their posts often inspire me creatively, make me laugh hysterically, and warm my heart. It\u2019s the only social media that I really like.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">It was my dad actually who showed me, though, that the very images that I saw as strengthening the community also weaken it. \u201cI\u2019ll never be able to do yoga,\u201d he said, pointing\u00a0to photo of me.\u00a0I asked why not. \u201cI am 65 years old and I\u2019m not flexible,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019m not going to be able to tie myself up like a pretzel or learn how to do a handstand, nor do I want to.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">I was taken aback to learn that after all the years I\u2019d been teaching he still thought yoga was just about how well you could do fancy poses. And then I realized that a lot people probably don\u2019t see #inspiration and #yogalove in all the stunning images on social media but something more like #wtf #nothanks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-419\" src=\"http:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/AlexCrowInstagram.png\" alt=\"AlexCrowInstagram\" width=\"798\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/AlexCrowInstagram.png 798w, https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/AlexCrowInstagram-300x169.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>What You Can\u2019t See In a\u00a0Selfie<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">The problem, of course, is that a pretty pose pic doesn\u2019t even scratch the surface of <span class=\"s2\">what yoga really is<\/span>. Over the next couple of hours I gave him a lecture, covering everything <i>but<\/i> asana. I told him about concentration, <span class=\"s2\">being in the moment<\/span>, <span class=\"s2\">untangling your ego<\/span>, working hard to burn through bad patterns so you can replace them with wise ones, and trying to find ease in this impermanent world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Then I explained how the poses are really a vehicle to teach all that <span class=\"s2\">philosophy<\/span>: Because some poses seem easy and some seem hard, your ego often gets involved and labels which ones you like and which you don\u2019t. It also sometimes encourages you to try to keep up with the person next to you and leads to injury. It\u2019s also there, telling you to give up, <span class=\"s2\">when a pose scares you or intimidates you<\/span>. By learning to pay attention to your tendencies on the mat you can learn a lot about what you do off of it in your regular life when faced with similar challenges, I told him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Then I told him he could get all those same benefits without ever stepping on a mat and doing what we consider \u201casana.\u201d I explained that by <span class=\"s2\">learning to meditate<\/span> he could gain all those same insights, learn to pay attention in the moment, ignore the thoughts that are useless, and keep the ones that are wise and helpful. He was thoroughly intrigued and asked me to teach him how to meditate and provide him with a plan on how to work on this yoga thing. <i>I was thrilled.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>\u201cYoga Is Now\u201d<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">Patanjali\u2019s first <span class=\"s2\">sutra<\/span> pretty much says it all. My favorite translation of it is: \u201cYoga Is Now.\u201d He doesn\u2019t say, \u201cYoga Is Asana\u201d or \u201cYoga Is <span class=\"s2\">Crow Pose<\/span>,\u201d he says it\u2019s \u201cNow.\u201d Being here now\u2014not in the throes of your mind\u2019s painful stories, judgments, and patterns\u2014that\u2019s it. Since none of us can be here now all the time, we need practice to strengthen our skills of concentration first. The poses help us do that. When it becomes easier to see our minds\u2019 stories and patterns, we can begin to eliminate the parts that cause suffering and amplify the parts that bring us ease, presence, and connection to ourselves and to others. That\u2019s yoga.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong>To keep reading visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yogajournal.com\/yoga-101\/patanjali-never-said-anything-yoga-selfies\/\" target=\"_blank\">YogaJournal.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-195\" src=\"http:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/practice-makes-progress.jpg\" alt=\"Practice Makes Progress\" width=\"804\" height=\"804\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/practice-makes-progress.jpg 804w, https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/practice-makes-progress-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/practice-makes-progress-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/practice-makes-progress-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/practice-makes-progress-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/yogaphysics.com\/yp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/practice-makes-progress-200x200.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 804px) 100vw, 804px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patanjali Never Said Anything About Yoga Selfies Originally posted by Yoga Journal on October 28, 2014 I love Instagram.
