Yoga for Grown ups

Location Google Map: Tagbilaran, Bohol, Philippines

Turn Out
Concurrent with Kids Yoga, I was also conducting Adult Yoga for the working types. There wasn't much traffic, usually just 2, sometimes none. But towards the end, more showed up - Berlyn brought friends along. Princess and Ville were M/W regulars. Kat and Kim joined in the latter part of the program - I wish the other teachers and facilitators did too (Summer of Growth).

  • INTRODUCTION

  • Class introduction: Manipuraka chakra (navel)
    <--#include virtual="/yoga_class/intro_manipuraka.shtml" -->
    This class revolves on Manipuraka Chakra. The mudra (mandukasana / matangi mudra), mantra (RAM), asana (mayurasana, hamsasana), pranayama (kapalabhati) and everything else will revolve around the Manipuraka.
  • FULL LECTURE: Manipuraka Chakra

    Manipuraka
  • Manipuraka Chakra / RAM chanting
    <--#include virtual="/yoga_class/c_manipuraka.shtml" -->
    Explaining Manipuraka (navel chakra) together with RAM mantra, including features and related topics:

    1. Statement - "I have a strong body and a strong mind. I don't get sick and I am determined. I am a doer. I make things happen. I will dominate, assert and manipulate to satiate my thirst for power and respect. But is this all there is to life?"
    2. Features

      1. in accordance to the Buddhist concept, kundalini resides in Manipura (not at the Muladhara) - until the level of manipura (not muladhara), because this is where expansion of consciousness begins
      2. the intensity of the pranic energy at the Manipuraka is like the dazzling power of the sun
      3. there is an intelligence in the Manipuraka that guides us, "My gut-feel is...."
      4. in the womb, the Manipuraka connects us to our mother via the umbilical cord. As an individual, the Manipuraka connects us the universe at large
      5. meditating on the Manipuraka (navel chakra) gives us complete knowledge of our body and allows us to diagnose our sickness
      6. activating this chakra cleanses the nadis and allows prana to flow freely throughout the body, eliminating disease and sickness
    3. Famous people - Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos. These are powerful people who will bend reality to their will. But they're not yet spiritual.
    4. Mantra - RAM
    5. Sitting Pose - vajrasana
    6. Asanas - backbends and navel contraction/extension/fortification
    7. Pranayama - kapalabhati
    8. Bandha - Uddiyana bandha
    9. Blockage - shame (what are you shameful of? what in your past causes feelings of shame? Accept as fact of life and move on)
    10. Activation - chanting RAM, Mandukasana, Nabhi Chikitsa (oil on navel), Kapalabhati,
    11. Element - fire (thumb)
    12. Mudra - mandukasana and thumb tip by the base of the little finger, then close the fist / matangi mudra
    13. Warning - a lot of powerful people get stuck here and just amass wealth and power all their lives. The others evolve and realize that the world is not just about them - they explore humanity and discover love and compassion (this is when they move up to the next chakra, anahata)
    14. Body / Physical - navel
    15. Location - navel
    16. Form / Color - lotus flower with ten yellow petals
    17. Enhanced Human Qualities

      1. all organs of the body optimally functional. Strong body and strong mind - no physical or mental afflictions can happen. Cannot get sick
      2. one begins to seriously question his attitude towards life and his place in this universe (as a genesis to his eventual spiritual path)
      3. able to face any disaster or accident with mental fortitude
      4. determined, unwavering, a shaker and doer
    18. Super Human Qualities (Siddhis)

      1. develops divya drishti (divine perception)
      2. you begin to realize that you are not the totality of your human perception (you are not your thoughts, memories, feelings, biases, etc.)
      3. experiences the singularity of time
      4. can enter the body of another
      5. power to create and destroy
    19. Manipuraka perspective vs other chakras

      1. Muladhara: "I need food clothing and shelter to survive"
      2. Svadhisthana: "sex, drugs and rock & roll"
      3. Manipuraka: "I, me, mine - the world is my oyster"
      4. Anahata: "I have love and compassion"
      5. Visuddhi: "Instead of fighting with life, I begin to flow with the current of life. I perform at a high level of competence. People naturally move towards me because I can do things beyond their understanding and abilities."
      6. Ajna: "My intuition is accurate. I have psychic abilities. I see things without the cobwebs and clutter. I see the world in black and white with a very minimal shade of gray (uncertainty, doubt, indecision). Nothing can touch me, nothing can disturb me. But experientially, I still do not feel the spontaneous ecstasy of life."
      7. Sahasrara: "I am the convergence of energy and consciousness. The self, the universe and God become one"

Release the uddiyana bandha, relax the entire body, while keeping awareness on the navel. Hold the breath as long as possible.

    Inhale coming up, and briefly engage all 3 bandhas while visualizing a ball of fire burning hot in the navel. Exhale while chanting RAM.
  • MEDITATION

    Meditation: Manipuraka Chakra
    <--#include virtual="/yoga_class/m_manipuraka.shtml" -->
  • Meditation: Manipuraka > Fire

    In Matangi mudra, visualize the Manipuraka Chakra residing in your navel...a yellow lotus flower with 10 petals.

    At the middle of this flower lies a small fire. Concentrate on this fire. Feel the heat. As you maintain focus on this fire, visualize the fire getting bigger, more intense and hotter. Feel the increasing heat.

    As the body heats up, feel the body getting stronger. Feel the mind getting equally as strong as the body. The mind is steadfast, balanced, unwavering and determined. With a strong body and a strong mind, you make things happen. You are a doer. You act on your excitement. You do things giving your 100%.

    Energy flows through you. Vitality and strength flow through you. Sickness cannot even come close. You are impervious to any disease.

  • CHANTING: RAM

  • Ending Thoughts
    Grown up Yoga was a counter-balance for me after teaching kids. Teaching kids can be draining while teaching grown-ups is always invigorating. It was my playground. I could develop sequences in different arrays towards a common theme.

    Now that the program is over, when I get back from Cebu, I'll conduct yoga classes where the participants pay less/head with more people joining in - that's the plan. Maybe Kat's place is still available. That would be ideal as she would likely participate if it's her place.

    Bohol Travel Info/Tips

    Bohol FYI / Tips

    • the tourist area where most of the hotels, restaurants, ticket offices, tour operators are, is located within the Alona Beach area
    • the tourist attractions in Bohol are far apart and spread-out. It would be difficult to visit them all using public mass transit. Better hire a van (P3500/day) if in a big group, or rent a motorcycle (P400/day + gas)
    • Bohol relies on its tourism for revenue. As expected, everything they can capitalize on from tourism is extensively used and developed

    Tagbilaran Port to Panglao

    You can charter any tricycle from the port all the way to Panglao (~P300), but if you want to do it on the cheap,
    1. don't take the tricycles lined-up inside the port. Walk past the port gate and immediately outside, you'll see many tricycles. Take one to the bus terminal in Dao (~P15)
    2. in Dao, take the jeep that plies the Panglao route (~P20)

    Things to do, Places to go in Bohol

    1. Chocolate Hills - this is a clustering of more than 1200 hills within a 50km2 area. They range in height from 30-50 meters. What's unusual is their near-perfect conical shape resembling an individual chocolate chip. No one knows how they were formed. Entrance is P50/pax.
    2. Tarsier Conservation Area - located Upper Bonbon, Loboc. The tarsiers are no longer being played at by tourists as circus props, but instead, visitors now view them in cordoned-off areas in their natural 6ha habitat. As they are territorial and nocturnal, they are predictable on where they can be viewed. P50/pax.
    3. Alona Beach (Panglao) - Alona Beach is the tourist hub of Bohol. It has 1.5 kms of white sand beach lined-up by bars, hotels and restos. Alona is also the jump-off point for Balicasag Island, a world class dive destination.
    4. Danao Adventure Park - located in Barangay Magtangtang, 72 kms (2 hours ride) from Tagbilaran. Adventure activities include river trekking, tyrolean traverse, rappelling, bouldering, rock climbing and ziplining.
