I've done a little yoga, not as a professional, and every time I have a good teacher I see the immense possibilities and subtleties in this discipline. It's a little bit like music.

Toddlers are so powerful and so egocentric and teenagers are also so powerful, so egocentric.
Laura Huxley

One asana is strong, then again another is very soft and gentle. So you have this modulation from one asana to another, just as you have from one feeling to another. Then they all, of course, make you lighter, give you space. I feel that space is what I get and receive and like to have - space inside which makes more space for openness outside.

The art of living is simply the art of using energy in an intelligent and creative way.
Laura Huxley
Image
The spine should be empty so that energy moves up and down. I always felt this way as a child.

Everything has to come through the senses, as though the soul is speaking out through the senses.

The unequal distribution of food is one of the world's most tragic facts. Millions of people die because they have too little to eat, and many die because they have too much.

Service or giving is the other side of receiving. Giving and receiving is a full circle: a full circle feels more natural than a half circle.

Our emotions are ever-changing and infinitely varied, but the words with which we describe them are fixed and rigid. Our life is like quicksilver, our vocabulary like steel. Sometimes a consummate poet succeeds in rendering the quality of life in words. For the rest of us, this is not possible.

Morbid attention is when we focus only on the shortcomings that come with aging, which are inevitable, and think that everything that is wrong is a result of aging.
Laura Huxley
Image
If you decide that you are making love to have a child then you are to prepare. Prepare physiologically, spiritually, and know that you have enough money to give him what you have to give him.
Laura Huxley
Image
I believe more in concrete spirituality rather than in a spirituality that is divided from the body and from nature.
Laura Huxley
Image
Yoga is a natural thing.
Laura Huxley
Image
Probably, the secret is to be less complicated. We of course love to make complications - look at the way we live. We have this tremendous amount of information, and probably it is really not so necessary. Maybe if you just drink water, you are kind to people and walk a little bit it's all done already. But we cannot resist this sophistication.

Be a little kinder to each other.

Healthy attention is to improve what can be improved and to accept what we cannot improve.

The preparation for conception to me is one of the most important things, if we are we interested in the general progress of our species.

There is danger in everything that we do.

You can focus your mind. You can respect your body. All of that is important.

Ignorance, according to the Buddha, is our basic difficulty. Psychedelics and the process of aging make that clear to me all the time.

Love your heart. It really is to love yourself to begin with and help everybody else in doing the same. But the heart being the center.
