Fall Happenings and Summer Memories at Dani Scher LLC YOGA
"If your yoga practice isn't making you a better person, then you are doing it wrong."

The book of the month is "Silence: The Power of Quiet in a World Full of Noise," by Thich Nhat Hanh.
"Mindfulness is often described as a bell that reminds us to stop and silently listen. We can use an actual bell or any other cue that helps us remember not to be carried away by the noise around and inside us. When we hear the bell, we stop. We follow our in-breath and our out-breath, making space for silence. We say to ourselves, "Breathing in, I know I'm breathing in." Breathing in and out mindfully, paying attention only to the breath, we can quiet all the noise within us-the chattering about the past, the future, and the longing for something more."
"...What does "I am here" mean? It means, "I exist. I'm really here, because I'm not lost in the past, in the future, in my thinking, in the noise inside, in the noise outside. I'm here." In order to really be, you have to be free from the thinking, free from the anxieties, free from the fear, free from the longing. "I am free" is a strong statement, because the truth is, many of us are not free. We don't have the freedom that allows us to hear, and to see, and to just be."
DANI SCHER LLC YOGA'S MONTHLY LIFESTYLE BLOG
This month i have continued my obsession with essential oils even further and will now have essential oil posts that are separate from the monthly lifestyle blog posts. Essential oils are so fantastic and there is so much to be said about them that I could literally use oils every month for this blog posting...but instead i will keep them separate.
I absolutely love the Gaiam Yoga Mat Wash. It is phenomenal.
For all types of purposes and uses...the AHAVA mineral body lotion in this larger size (go get it at Century 21...they always have it marked down to a very very low price). This lotion is great on its own or as a carrier for essential oils. It is a great value for sure.
Rituals' Sensational Soft Cleanser is just the perfect fix to an irritated face. Too much sun in the summer can cause major irritation and burning but this cleanser is so comforting and soothing.
DANI SCHER LLC YOGA'S MONTHLY LIFESTYLE BLOG
This month I have been ALL ABOUT essential oils. Oils are my fascination and hobby and now part of my business as a doTERRA lifestyle consultant. My business partner gave me this diffuser when we decided to start working together selling doTERRA products and creating networks. She is amazing and this gift is wonderful!
At the office, while you travel, at your kids’ games. No matter where you are, this small, compact diffuser fits perfectly in your work bag or purse. Great for times when you need aromatherapy– quick!Of course...I have now been obsessed with the entire doTERRA family of products. Single note essential oils are great to mix together and use in the diffuser.

Read MoreClosing Cycles..."Warrior of the Light," Paulo Coelho
"One always has to know when a stage comes to an end. If we insist on staying longer than the necessary time, we lose the happiness and the meaning of the other stages we have to go through. Closing cycles, shutting doors, ending chapters - whatever name we give it, what matters is to leave in the past the moments of life that have finished."Read More

This is the time and this is the place for me to share some of my favorite songs I play during class. This is not a complete list by any means but it is a start and one of many music posts. Enjoy!

Yeah, I couldn't get this song out of my head. So I took the hint (Especially since the graphic to the original track was Major Lazer lying in the lap of Ganesha). I originally started recreating the entire track from scratch as a personal study in ableton live.

Read MoreCOMING "HOME" →
Life is hectic. Life is tough. Life is destabilizing. There is something very special and important about viewing your yoga practice as if you are "coming home." What does this mean? When we take out all of the bullshit that runs in our brains to try to justify not hitting our mat we are left feeling naked, vulnerable, and overwhelmed. These are my 3 suggestions to keep you on your yoga mat regularly so that you always feel safe in your practice and to use it to fight those feelings of being naked, vulnerable and overwhelmed.
Read MoreA REFLECTION ON DAILY PRACTICE:
A wonderful long day of teaching… Now much-deserved self practice. I don't want to think of life in ways where we ,"deserve" something because it brings up a negative connotation of entitlement. But we must not forget that we do deserve good things for ourselves. We are worth something. We are worth the time and introspection that comes with a yogic daily practice.
