Becoming A True Spiritual Community – “Call it family, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family. No matter what you call it, whoever you are, you need one.”
It’s time for us at Desert Yoga Therapy to thank you for being a part of our community. Last week we celebrated our first anniversary at our studio in Rancho Mirage. In some ways it feels like we’ve been there a long time because there’s been so much experience over the last 12 months.
Becoming A True Spiritual Community
It’s fun to think about everything that happened last year: Ayurveda workshops, chakras, auras, understanding, interesting dances, children and pre-teens; teacher training programs with two 200-hour classes, continuing education and restorative yoga; weekly yoga classes (total attendance over 6,000); 1-1 yoga therapy and 1-1 pilates. We have teachers who build their businesses at DYT and are passionate about what they do.
Inner Wisdom Experience + Sounds True One Annual Membership
For those of you who have visited our studio, you have commented on not only how beautiful it is, but how welcoming and safe it is, a sanctuary for us to be part of our health journey. One of the goals my husband Ed and I set for this place is for it to be a place where people can be part of the community, no matter who they are or what’s going on in their lives. We want this space to be free from the “outside”, a place to reset our thoughts, a place to process, move and breathe. We are proud that you have given us the opportunity to serve you in this way.
To understand what this anniversary means on a personal level, I went back to some old blogs I wrote about finding community. Two blogs, written in 2011 and 2015, stand out in particular. When I left Australia and moved to America in 1997, I left behind a community I call my “heart family”. These are the people in our lives who have witnessed our journey and embraced us with compassion, support, and unconditional love. I thought I would find it when I returned to the United States, but instead, what I was looking for was nowhere to be found. I had a few false starts with groups of people I liked, but who didn’t have the depth I was looking for. Ultimately, I’m looking for a community of people who also seek a connection to a greater purpose, who are willing to share their weaknesses and support each other to find meaning in our lives.
Something in me called for this, and since it wasn’t easy for me, I thought maybe part of my goal was to build a community. You know the saying, “See and they will come,” which is certainly true with good intentions, but I’ve often been left sitting in an empty yoga studio waiting for someone to walk through the door. It was a long, slow growth that required persistence and determination. I maintain the attitude that no matter how many people come to work, I will give the same energy. And now, near the end of our first year in our new space, I’m really seeing the community-building mission unfold. I love being in our studio for many reasons – the purple walls, the beautiful flooring, the soft natural light… but most of all I love the people who walk through the door. We often bring some panic or sense of responsibility, and I’m lucky to see the effects of what happens in classrooms and classrooms. People leave smiling and relaxed. They cooperate with others and form lasting friendships.
My teacher, Judith Hanson Lasater, has a saying about our role as yoga teachers: “bring out the best in people.” I know that when I look for community, I look for people who show me that, and when I get that out of my head and start focusing on how I can serve others, that’s when it happens. My light shines, other people’s nature comes back to me.

I want us all to shine and shine, attract the attention of those who do the same, and give our hearts to the rest of the community. May God make this year a year of peace and stability. And we will continue to find our own path with the support of those close to us.

In 1978, Thomas Ashley-Farran traveled to India for the first time, where he impressed the local spiritual community with the perfect art and practice of mantra. a specific sacred sound for spiritual and physical transformation.
Now, 20 years later, he shares his mastery of this ancient spiritual art for the first time
Here is an introductory audio tutorial in English that teaches you how to use mantras to enhance your thoughts, influence your mood, and deepen your spiritual practices.
Spiritual Connection: Being Part Of Something Bigger
In 12 interactive sessions, Thomas Ashley-Farran teaches a traditional library of mantras that apply to all areas of your life. From work and health to love and enlightenment, here are tons of great songs that millions of people use every day to spark their creative energy.
The power of mantras does not come from the meaning of the syllables, teaches Ashley-Farran, but from the direct vibrational effect on the structure and energy of our body. He also taught that Sanskrit is an energy-based language and that mantras are spiritual techniques for working with that energy. Their purpose is to remove obstacles in our spiritual progress and help us move forward for the better.
You can start practicing these powerful chants to heal and transform your life with the first mantra you chant. It contains a 37-page study guide.

A good CD for those who are not familiar with the sacred mantra and its practice. The information contained on this CD is powerful and relevant in these difficult times. It is also highly recommended for open-minded people who want to find new solutions to old problems.
Some of the mantras are nice to hear, but the concept is too religious and insufficiently scientific and educational.
I have been interested in mantras for many years and currently do not have a teacher.

Thomas’ presentation on this CD set (from the local library in Katanning, Western Australia) is very well presented. Very good advice.
