The thing about yoga is that it starts creating energy flow in areas where energy may have been stagnant for a long time, and it could bring up old emotions. It’s neither good nor bad, it just is. But the practice then goes a level deeper when you start figuring out what to do with these emotions when the appear. . I’ve always never felt like I fitted in anywhere. Indians don’t consider me truly Indian. Malaysians don’t consider me truly Malaysian. I’m not “foreign enough” to be considered a foreigner either. Even in the yoga world, I’m neither traditional nor mainstream. I love the practice as a whole, but I’m not a strict Ashtangi, Iyengar or any other yoga classification, and so my journey hasn’t been as linear or common as most practitioners. Sometimes not fitting into these categories bothers me. But the practice off the mat is reminding myself of ‘ahimsa’ - the practice of non violence. Besides the obvious, for me, ahimsa also translates to accepting myself fully for who I am. There isn’t a need to cut off a piece of me in order to fit into an acceptable cookie cutter shape. These jaggers pieces that stick out are also me, and they are just as beautiful. . Learning to love starts from within. Once it’s lit from within, then it starts shining out naturally outward. . . . . . #practiceahimsa #practiceandalliscoming #yogalessonsarelifelessons #yogaoffthemat #scorpionpose #vrksasana #vriksasana #adhomukhavrkasana #thankfulforinversions #handstand #scorpionhandstand #invertorbend #igyoga #yogisofig #yogagirl #yogajournal #yogajourney #ahimsa #igyogacommunity #yogalove #beachyoga #yogaphotography #yogagoa #goayoga #yogaeveryblessedday (at Aswem Beach, Goa)

If there's anything that Instagram does not need more of, it's pictures of handstand. This is not to say handstands are not beautiful poses. This is not suggesting that the tapas (fiery discipline) involved to achieve handstand is not admirable. This is in no way implying that handstands are less "yogic" than any other pose. Handstands are great! Handstands have purpose and intention and are a great tool in the physical practice. • However... I've recently been struggling with the two sides of ego. There's the ego that says "you're flawless! You should do all of the hard things all of the time!" The ego that says "I am a handstander" instead of "I do handstands." Even "do" seems too rigid. To practice something and to let go of always doing it (and the outcome) is something I will save for another post. • The other side of ego is the one that holds you back. That cares only about the "serious" practice. If I'm being being honest, it's kind of a spiritual high horse. The "I don't need to do ____ because I do ____." Not practicing because it's not good for your body is one thing, but not practicing because of your image is another. • So here is my handstand photo compromise. Something Instagram DOES need more of: acknowledgement of the student/teacher relationship in the practice. With YouTube and books and Instagram, it can seem like you can do it all on your own. But the guiding wisdom of an outside perspective is so important in combating both sides of the ego, and I don't know where I would be without it. • Inquiry: do you handstand? Why? Which ego do you identify with? Tag a teacher below that has elevated your practice and how! I'm tagging my mentor @shannons6 whose continual dedication to all parts of practice (and teaching) inspires me daily. Also shoutout to @yogajoel @beckamargaret Heather Peterson and @amy.opielowski - leaders of my @corepoweryoga 300 hour training! #cpy300hr • #svadyaya #yoga #yogateacher #handstand #adhomukhavrkasana #teacherstudentrelationship #inversion #armbalance #tapas #ego #properrespect #mandukaambassador #manduka @mandukayoga #summerinasnap @anthropologie @anthro_minnesota #anthrocontest (at CorePower Yoga)

First hike of 2017! 🌲🌲🌲😎 grateful to a couple of my students from Larkspur and Mill Valley who took me to this wonderful trail at Lagunitas Lake. They are the kindest sisters and dedicated Iyengar students. I feel blessed to share the practice with them. So good to get some of that Cali sunshine this weekend ☀️☀️☀️ #yogalife #yogahike #marin #lagunitaslake #fairfax #naturechill #adhomukhavrkasana #fullarmbalance #inversionjunkies #sirsasana #iyengaryoga #yogizain #funinthesun #namaste (at Lake Lagunitas)

#welcomingmarchwithstrength - Day 10 - #adhomukhavrkasana #handstand . This was ridiculously difficult to shoot. Spidey's balance was extremely precarious. He could hold the handstand for 30 seconds and then fall over for no apparent reason. After he fell, he would be out of alignment and have to start all over again. I couldn't quite match his handstand and he couldn't match mine. And fingertip handstands are still pretty far in the future for me. #toyproblems (at Burbank, California)

Have to practice these handstands by straightening my form to hold this pose against the wall 😶 Sponsored by @omstarsofficial Clothes by @aloyoga @mapleleafs Mat by @byoganow Photo by @marakbai #yoga #yogachallenge #handstandprep #handstand #adhomukhavrkasana #inversion #inversionjunkie #inversionsmakeyouhot (at North York)

Day 14 of #WallCall this is #handstand or #adhomukhavrkasana I want to be able to hold this pose without the help of a wall but this month it's all about wall (at Springfield Lakes Reflection, Chandler, Arizona)

Sometimes, you see a spot and immediately think, “I absolutely need to practice handstands there”. 🤸🏼‍♀️🌴 P.S. - thank goodness for @peegepsu’s burst mode prowess 🙏🏼 #handstand #adhomukhavrkasana #yogaaroundtheworld #vinyasatravels #puntacana (at Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort)

Day 28 of #ayearofyoga2017 this pose is #adhomukhavrkasana or #handstand. I used to be able to hold this on a four foot tall four inch wide balance beam and now I can barely hold it long enough to take a picture on the floor. I know yoga isn't supposed to be about competition or being upset with your progress but I can't turn off my inner gymnast. I always want to be the best with balance and flexibility so it's the reason I'll keep doing yoga because I'm happier when I can feel proud with my abilities (at Springfield Lakes Reflection, Chandler, Arizona)
