Yoga for a Healthy Heart

February 8, 2014 by Julie Lusk

beach sand heartHere is a series of 9 yoga poses for a healthy heart (pdf) from the innovative work of Dean Ornish, MD.

For over 30 years, research has shown how comprehensive lifestyle changes can often halt, and even reverse, heart disease.  Program components include a low fat diet, exercise, social support, and stress management (yoga, guided relaxation, breathing, meditation).  Reversing Heart Disease, Love and Survival, and other books and articles by Ornish contain the details and data you’ll want to have about the lifestyle for a healthy heart.  This yoga series was originally published in Yoga Journal (March 06).

A great resource for guided relaxation, breathing and meditation is Yoga Meditations: Timeless Mind-Body Practices for Awakening.

Happy Humming Practice

May 12, 2025 by Julie Lusk

Happy Humming Practice

Do you have a happiness practice? Our world is starving for happiness. We are parched for smiles. We are hungry for connections. Practice happiness daily.  Hum daily.

Hum your happiness out. Have you forgotten you are made of vibrations? Remember, energy is real. Hum when you’re happy, content, blessed. Hum for no reason. It’s contagious. Quench each other’s thirst for happiness and hum.

Hummmmmmm…

Recall a happy moment. Hum to soak it into your heart.
Hum to those who struggle.
Catch on to shimmering beauty and grace and hum to capture its essence.
Hum out to the harsh realities.
Notice smiling times and hum to savor its sweetness.
Hum out to ease suffering.
Feel heartfelt happiness within. Hum to embody it. Set it free with a hum.

Hummmmmmm…

You can do this. You are meant to do this.
You are not in the crossfire. You are not hungry.
It takes as long as breathing in happiness and sharing it with a hum.

Hummmmmmm…

Devote your happiness practice to benefit everyone, everywhere.

Dedicate your happiness practice to fill the broken people and places craving relief.

Hummmmmmm…

Hum a single note.

Hum a tune.

Hum till you feel happy.

Hum for those who can’t.

Hum for those who forget and for those forgotten.

Hum when sad, lonely, and feeling mad.

Hum your own sound ~ high/low ~ soft/strong ~ clear/crinkly ~ in tune/or not ~

Hum at home, while working, and in between.  Hum inside and outside and in between.

Hum a lullaby and to awaken.

Happy. Happy. Happy.

Hummmmmmm.  Hummmmmmm. Hummmmmmm.

 

From Julie Lusk with inspiration from Susa Silvermarie ~ May 2025

Friendship Blessing

February 13, 2017 by Julie Lusk

I’m still on Cloud 9 from our recent Yoga Women’s Retreat & Slumber party.  What a joy to be surrounded by friends – soul friends!  They are the people, whether known a long time or briefly, that have shaped and supported you into being who you are today, and who you’re growing into.

The Celtic tradition calls one’s soul-friend the Anam Cara. John O’Donohue explains “With the anam cara, you could share your innermost self, your mind, and your heart.  This friendship is an act of recognition and belonging that did not set limitations of space or time on the soul.  It cuts across all convention, morality and category.   In it, you are understood as you are without mask or pretension.”

A Friendship Blessing by John O’Donohue
May you be blessed with good friends.
May you learn to be a good friend to yourself.
May you be able to journey to that place in your soul where
there is great love, warmth, feeling, and forgiveness.
May this change you.
May it transfigure that which is negative, distant, or cold in you.
May you be brought in to the real passion, kinship, and affinity of belonging.
May you treasure your friends.
May you be good to them and may you be there for them;
may they bring you all the blessing, challenges, truth,
and light that you need for your journey.
May you never be isolated.
May you always be in the gentle nest of belonging with your anam ċara.

Please tell us about your anam cara by sharing under comments.
