Energy Clearing Workshop

With Juno Burger

06 December 2020

Whenever we think of liberation, peace or healing it is about the absence of that from which we apparently suffer; no more thoughts, conflict, or pain. But what if true healing and peace do not come from the absence of what you think you suffer from but from the absence of that in you which is suffering?

Love is what we are; we don't get it from somebody, we can't give it to anybody, we can't fall in it or fall out of it. Love is our true Being.

- Krishna Das

"Yoga is the process of ending the definitions of the field of consciousness."

- Translation by Sri. K. Pattabhi Jois, in Yoga Mala, Mysore, 1997

Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky. Conscious breathing is my anchor.

- Thich Nhat Hanh

Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.

- Rumi

A single event can awaken within us a stranger totally unknown to us. To live is to be slowly born.

- Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Meditation is not a way of making your mind quiet. It is a way of entering into the quiet that is already there.

- Deepak Chopra

It is better to live your own destiny imperfectly than to live an imitation of somebody else's life with perfection.

- The Bhagavad Gita

You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it is better to listen to what it has to say.

- Paulo Coehlo

"Healthy plants and trees yield abundant flowers and fruits. Similarly, from a healthy person, smiles and happiness shine forth like the rays of the sun."

- B.K.S. Iyengar

We are not going to change the whole world, but we can change ourselves and feel free as birds. We can be serene even in the midst of calamities and, by our serenity, make others more tranquil. Serenity is contagious.

- Sri S. Satchidananda, The Yoga Sutras

"Yoga is the practice of quieting the mind."

- Patanjali

Undisturbed calmness of mind is attained by cultivating friendliness toward the happy, compassion for the unhappy, delight in the virtuous, and indifference toward the wicked.

- Sri S. Satchidananda, The Yoga Sutras

"Yoga is good for man because the physical body improves, the nervous system improves, the mind improves, the intellect improves..."

- Sri K. Pattabhi Jois

The body is my temple, asanas are my prayers.

- B.K.S. Iyengar

"To live fully is to be always in no-man's-land, to experience each moment as completely new and fresh."

- Pema Chödrön, When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times

"If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."

- Wayne Dyer

Stop measuring days by degree of productivity and start experiencing them by degree of presence.

- Alan Watts

The body benefits from movement, and the mind benefits from stillness.

- Sakyong Mipham

"We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace within ourselves."

- Dalai Lama

When you arise in the morning think of what a privilege it is to be alive, to think, to enjoy, to love.

- Marcus Aurelius

“The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.”

- W.B. Yeats

What you really long for is a deep intimacy with your own experience—the deepest acceptance of every thought, every sensation, every feeling. And that cannot come from outside of yourself.

- Jeff Foster

In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.

- Buddha

Yoga is not about touching your toes. It is what you learn on the way down.

- Jigar Gor

"In the practice of yoga, one can emphasize the body, the mind or the self and hence the effort can never be fruitless."

- T. Krishnamacharya

When you love, love as if the person is a god, not less than that.

- Osho

You should sit in meditation for 20 minutes a day. Unless you’re too busy; then you should sit one hour.

- Old Zen Saying

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.

- Helen Keller

The mind is like water. When it's turbulent, it's difficult to see. When it's calm, everything becomes clear.

- Prasad Mahes

Do not feel lonely. The entire universe is inside you.

- Rumi

“We’re fascinated by the words - but where we meet is the silence behind them.”

- Ram Dass

"While praising, may we of strong and steady limb enjoy the life given by the Gods Om Peace, Peace, Peace"

- Shanti mantra from the Rg Veda

Your vision will become clear only when you look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams, who looks insides, awakes.

- Carl Jung

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

- Alan Watts

Be like a lotus. Let the beauty of your heart speak. Be grateful to the mud, water, air, and the light.

- Amit Ray

Peace comes not from doing, but from undoing; not from getting, but from letting go.

- Swami Satchidananda

Step into the fire of self-discovery. This fire will not burn you, it will only burn what you are not.

- Mooji

Tell your body that it is strong, tell your mind that it is strong, and have unbounded faith and hope in yourself.

- Swami Vivekananda

Waking up this morning, I smile. Twenty-four brand new hours are before me. I vow to live fully in each moment and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion.

- Thich Nhat Hanh

One is never afraid of the unknown; one is afraid of the known coming to an end.

- Jiddu Krishnamurti

"Simply let experience take place very freely, so that your open heart is suffused with the tenderness of true compassion."

- Tsoknyi Rinpoche

Don’t move the way fear makes you move. Move the way love makes you move. Move the way joy makes you move.

- Osho

Every emotion is connected with the breath. If you change the breath, change the rhythm, you can change the emotion.

- Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

The mind can go in a thousand directions, but on this beautiful path, I walk in peace. With each step, the wind blows. With each step, a flower blooms.

- Thich Nhat Hanh

Normality is a paved road: It's comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow.

Do your practice and all is coming.

- Sri K. Pattabhi Jois

Accept–then act. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. This will miraculously transform your whole life.

Anything that is troubling you, anything which is irritating you… that is your Teacher.

- Buddha

Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured

- B.K.S. Iyengar

The happiness which comes from long practice, which leads to the end of suffering, which at first is like poison, but at last like nectar - this kind of happiness arises from the serenity of one's own mind.

- The Bhagavad Gita

Medicine cures the body, meditation cures your being; it is the inner medicine.

- Osho

If your compassion does not include yourself, it is incomplete.

- Jack Kornfield

Nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know.

- Pema Chödrön

But the real secret to lifelong good health is actually the opposite: Let your body take care of you.

- Deepak Chopra

Peace can become a lens through which you see the world. Be it. Live it. Radiate it out. Peace is an inside job.
