Ahsram 2

It's been almost a week at Parmarth Niketan Ahsram in Rishikesh. The Kriya Yoga course is really fantastic, great instructors and fellow participants. Save for a little back trouble (lots of sitting and new asana styles) I feel good. Kriya Yoga is intended to clean you from the inside out and help with your concentration in meditation. My meditation has certainly become more focused in the past month, part of that is just being in the magical Himalayas. Really, it's so special here. The weather is turning chilly, very brisk in the morning but still warm and sunny in the afternoon followed by cool temperatures in the evening while we're singing to Mother Ganga on the ashram ghat. I hear it's very cold both in Korea and Seattle. I'm certainly thankful to be here!
