Yoga
The two forces of mind and prana maintain the
rhythm of life and consciousness. Everything in the universe is evolving.
Matter in its ultimate form is energy. The goal of yoga is to turn the body
into solid energy. – Hatha Yoga Pradipika
Namaste means “the divinity within me salutes
the divinity within you.”
Net-Bearer Bond
Jalandhara Bandha
(jah-lahn-DHA-rah bahn-dah)
jala = net (for catching birds or fish)
dhara = bearing, supporting
bandha = bond
jala = net (for catching birds or fish)
dhara = bearing, supporting
bandha = bond
Contraindications and Cautions
Approach the practice of all bandhas and body mudras cautiously,
especially without the direct guidance of an experienced teacher.
Avoid this bandha if you have a neck injury
Sit in a comfortable pose.
Firm your shoulder blades against your back torso to lift your
sternum. Be careful not to push your front ribs forward.
Full Jalandhara requires the chin to rest comfortably on the
sternum (neck flexion). Many beginners make the mistake of only lowering the
chin; in fact your chin should be met half-way by the elevated sternum.
The focus of these complementary movements is the
"crook" of the throat, where the underside of the chin meets the
front of the neck. Draw this crook diagonally up and into your skull (toward
the top of your spine). Your head should pivot and your chin should descend
over this action, which simultaneously draws the top of the sternum upward.
Work on lengthening the back of your neck, releasing your
shoulders, and opening your chest in poses like Sarvangasana and Setu
Bandha Sarvangasana. Never force your chin to your sternum.
If you're a beginner, don't hold this bandha continuously
throughout your practice. Begin your inhalation with your head upright. Apply
Jalandhara as you near the end of the inhale, hold during the retention and the
exhale, then raise your head to a neutral position for the next inhale.

There is another sky by Emily Dickinson
There is another sky,
Ever serene and fair,
And there is another sunshine,
Though it be darkness there;
Never mind faded forests, Austin,
Never mind silent fields -
Here is a little forest,
Whose leaf is ever green;
Here is a brighter garden,
Where not a frost has been;
In its unfading flowers
I hear the bright bee hum:
Prithee, my brother,
Into my garden come!
Ever serene and fair,
And there is another sunshine,
Though it be darkness there;
Never mind faded forests, Austin,
Never mind silent fields -
Here is a little forest,
Whose leaf is ever green;
Here is a brighter garden,
Where not a frost has been;
In its unfading flowers
I hear the bright bee hum:
Prithee, my brother,
Into my garden come!

Don't Cry Out Loud lyrics
Songwriters: PETER ALLEN,
CAROLE BAYER SAGER
Baby cried the day the circus came to town
'Cause she didn't want parades just passing by her
So she painted on a smile
And took up with some clown
While she danced without a net upon the wire
I know a lot about her
'Cause you see
Baby is an awful lot like me
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
Learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
'Cause she didn't want parades just passing by her
So she painted on a smile
And took up with some clown
While she danced without a net upon the wire
I know a lot about her
'Cause you see
Baby is an awful lot like me
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
Learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
Baby saw that when they pulled that big top down
They left behind her dreams among the litter
The different kind of love she thought she'd found
There was nothin' left but sawdust and some glitter
But baby can't be broken
'Cause you see
She had the finest teacher
That was me, I told her
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
And learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
And learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost made it
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
And learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
They left behind her dreams among the litter
The different kind of love she thought she'd found
There was nothin' left but sawdust and some glitter
But baby can't be broken
'Cause you see
She had the finest teacher
That was me, I told her
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
And learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
And learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost made it
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
And learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
