A long time since I shared my inner world here… I left it on chapter 1 of “Follow my Bliss”. Yes. Last year I learnt a lot through pain and how to find serenity and even happiness in the most difficult moments. For this one, I set up the intention of connecting every day with ananda,<\/em>\u00a0the essence of bliss that is the throb of the Universe, that is my heartbeat.\u00a0It might sound a bit presumptuous, but the same way that most yogic texts start with the highest teaching, why not aiming\u00a0to one of the highest intentions of yoga practice and of life itself? To bring the\u00a0fullest\u00a0happiness to my life. To enjoy the pleasure of being alive, my body sensations, the places that my mind takes me to, the emotions that arise from my heart. To experience happiness, delight, pleasure. And I am not talking about\u00a0ephemeral happiness or momentary pleasure. I am talking about happiness that feels like peace, like fullness, like a huge inner smile; about pleasure that fills your soul and transform you forever.<\/p>\n I meant to write about it and I must apologize (maybe not) for getting lost among traveling, experiences, encounters that kept me away from my computer and more in contact with myself. Wow! The power of intention is beyond question. Days after writing that last blog, I started\u00a0feeling how inner walls were knocked down, old patterns started to\u00a0\u00a0crack, preconceived \u00a0ideas started to dissolve and my life started to change, both inside and outside.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_image admin_label=”Imagen” src=”http:\/\/www.rasalilayoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/surrender-1.jpg” show_in_lightbox=”off” url_new_window=”off” animation=”off” sticky=”off” align=”left” force_fullwidth=”off” always_center_on_mobile=”on” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Texto” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n Now I can write, not only from the intention but also from its experience.\u00a0I have learnt that I have to listen, feel, refine my senses to experience the nature around, but also to refine the inner listening to connect even more with my intuition. That I have to get rid of the “noise” that does not allow listening the fundamental throb.\u00a0\u00a0That sometimes I have to say farewell to parts of myself because there are part of the noise. That each moment of bliss\u00a0and delight bring along a choice of surrender, openness and greater vulnerability.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Texto” background_layout=”light” text_orientation=”left” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid”]<\/p>\n I truly believe that human beings can experience much more pleasure and delight, much more happiness; that happiness is inherent to our nature. But sometimes we have to work with dedication, not to “build happiness” but to let go of everything that does not allow us to experience it. For me, yoga and meditation are key tools to cleanse, to let go, to connect. Also are the Ocean, surfing, love, healthy and nutritious food, inspiring reading…. \u00a0Which are your tools \u00a0for happiness?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Ananda<\/em>\u00a0comes always together with a deep experience of awareness. In sanskrit it is called Cit<\/em>. It is my practice to try to be more aware and question myself every day if my actions are in service of my desire to experience life as\u00a0ananda<\/em>. \u00a0So I often ask to myself:<\/p>\n Which aspects of my life, that\u00a0maybe I even desired and manifested some time ago, are not contributing now to my experience of\u00a0life as delight?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Which of them can I change from today? Am I willing to change them?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Which of them can I change in a long term? \u00a0What do I need to do today to start\u00a0initiating the change?\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Take the reins of your happiness. Do it now. Why do you want to wait? Only the way will already surprise you .<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [et_pb_section][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Texto\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\"]<\/p> Mucho tiempo sin compartir aqu\u00ed mi mundo interior\u2026.

Puede sonar un poco presuntuoso, pero al igual que cada texto filos\u00f3fico del yoga siempre comienza con la ense\u00f1anza m\u00e1s elevada, \u00bfpor qu\u00e9 no aspirar a una de las intenciones m\u00e1s elevadas de nuestras pr\u00e1cticas y de nuestra vida? Traer la felicidad m\u00e1s plena a mi vida.\u00a0Disfrutar del placer de estar viva, de las sensaciones de mi cuerpo, de los lugares a los que me lleva mi mente, de las emociones que brotan de mi coraz\u00f3n. Experimentar felicidad, deleite, placer. No hablo de la felicidad ef\u00edmera o del placer moment\u00e1neo. Hablo de esa felicidad que se siente como paz, como plenitud, como una enorme sonrisa interior. De los placeres que te llenan el alma y dejan huella para siempre.<\/p> Era mi\u00a0prop\u00f3sito escribir sobre ello y debo disculparme (\u00bfo no?) por haberme perdido entre viajes, experiencias, encuentros, que me han alejado un poco\u00a0del ordenador y me han llevado m\u00e1s a mi ser. \u00a0El poder de la intenci\u00f3n es incuestionable. D\u00edas despu\u00e9s de escribir aquella entrada de blog sent\u00ed como muros internos se derribaban, viejos patrones se resquebrajaban, ideas preconcebidas se disolv\u00edan y mi vida cambiaba de un modo notable tanto en el interior como en el exterior.<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\"][et_pb_image admin_label=\"Imagen\" src=\"http:\/\/www.rasalilayoga.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/surrender-1.jpg\" show_in_lightbox=\"off\" url_new_window=\"off\" animation=\"off\" sticky=\"off\" align=\"left\" force_fullwidth=\"off\" always_center_on_mobile=\"on\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\"] [\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_2\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Texto\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\"]<\/p> Ahora puedo\u00a0escribir, no s\u00f3lo desde la intenci\u00f3n sino desde su experiencia.

Que hay que disminuir el \u201cruido\u201d que no nos deja escuchar el latido fundamental. Que a veces tienes que decir adi\u00f3s a partes de t\u00ed mismo que son parte de ese ruido. Que cada momento de conexi\u00f3n con la dicha y el deleite llevan consigo una decisi\u00f3n de entrega, de apertura, de mayor vulnerabilidad.<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Texto\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\" use_border_color=\"off\" border_color=\"#ffffff\" border_style=\"solid\"]<\/p> Creo firmemente que todos los seres humanos podemos experimentar mucho m\u00e1s placer y deleite, mucha m\u00e1s\u00a0felicidad; que esa felicidad es inherente a nuestra naturaleza. Pero a veces, hay que trabajar con dedicaci\u00f3n, no para \"crear felicidad\" sino m\u00e1s bien para deshacernos de todo lo que no nos permite experimentarla. Para m\u00ed el yoga y la meditaci\u00f3n son herramientas claves para limpiar, para soltar, para conectar.
