About the Notebooks
Foreword
Being an aerospace designer by trade, and traveling to yoga conferences, work-shops and retreats for personal growth, I have had the great privilege of attending the classes of some wonderful and passionate yoga teachers. This notebook evolved from the many notebooks that I filled with my own insights during my travels, taking notes along the way. Since this work is comprised of common quotes, classroom teachings and original thought, it is practically impossible to accurately designate authorship quote by quote. I have included all historically documented sources. All of the rhymes and word plays are my original Yoga musings.
Designed to be practical and useful for years, the covers are laminated to resist moisture and the useful quote pages are printed on ivory colored paper for quick reference. The entire notebook is 8.5 inches long by 3.66 inches wide, designed to fit within your yoga matbag. The notebook has 2 binding rings that will release to facilitate the addition of more pages or your own additional information.
NOTE - If you do teacher trainings, this book is great take-away item for your new teacher trainees. Also, I am willing to work with you if you would like to create your own version of this notebook.
COPYRIGHTED AND ISBN - This compilation of quotes and original thought has been copyrighted and has an assigned ISBN tracking number for ease of warehousing and accounting.
Using the Notebook
Choose only a couple of selections from each section before teaching, then inject them into your class in a timely manner. Quotes have been repeated if applicable to various sections and the information itself has been approached from a variety of perspectives to facilitate absorption. The extra and backside pages are provided for your own memorable yoga thoughts.My rule of thumb is: Write down anything that you hear or think of that rings true or provides a revelation.

Quotes that are in my Yoga Notebooks - Enjoy - Go to this
websites online store if you would like to purchase one. Before Class and Mental Prep
Perceive your practice as an offering to the moment or body prayer.
Empower your yoga as a study in movement potential.
Realize that the first step along the path of growth is acceptance of where you are.
Refocus your awareness from the external to the internal prior to practice.
Breath and Bandhas
Interweave the unbroken continuity of breath with conscious movement and relaxation.
Realize that yoga without breath control is stretching.
Allow the breath to emulate the ebb and flow of waves gently caressing the seashore.
Perceive the Bandhas as the core from which all movements and perceptions emanate.
Points to Ponder During Class
Yoga isn't about self-improvement, it's about self-awareness. -Patanjali
Seek the balance between effort and comfort.
Allow yielding and non-resistance to create fluidity.
Do not force your practice, let it unfold.
Diving to Deeper Levels
Release your clenched fist of self-definition to reveal the emptiness within.
What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matter to what lies within us. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
Perceive the body as the manifestation of consciousness.
When the mind focuses on the past or future; the present is obscured.
Facing Challenges
Satisfaction lies in the effort not the attainment, full effort is full victory. -Mahatma Gandhi
Don’t let what you cannot do interfere with what you can. -John Wooden
The last difficulty in any posture is to make it look effortless.
Savasana and Closing Thoughts
Cultivate
within yourself the serenity to accept the things that you cannot
change, the courage to change things that you can and the wisdom to know
the difference. - Reinhold Niebuhr
Bring peace to the mind’s turbulent waters by finding the stillness underneath.
Success
is not to be measured by wealth, power or fame, but instead, by the
ratio of what a person could be and what they actually are. - H.G.Wells
The only Journey is the Journey within. - Rainer Maria Rilke
Favorite Metaphors and Jokes
Michelangelo
Story - When asked how he created such wonderful statues he replied -
"The statues are already within the stone, all I have to do is remove
the excess." Your own statue lies within you.
Joan Rivers quote on forward bends. "If God had meant for me to fold at the waist, he would have scattered diamonds on the ground."
