OC Weekly reports: Mental Physix Want to DJ Your Yoga Class

OC Weekly is ...  

putting Mental Physix 

on OC's spiritual energy radar!

OC Weekly: http://blogs.ocweekly.com/heardmentality/2013/05/mental_physix_yoga_djs.php

Mental Physix is balance. Mental and physical. Yin and yang. Deep beats and yoga. The place between the paradox.

Mental Physix are a DJ duo made up of Crisanto Santa Ana and Dru Ali. Their mission? To explore the fusion of music and yoga to "create a divine union of healing, through self-realization and sound." Both Santa Ana and Ali perform at yoga studios while Vinyasa classes are going on, and the experience -- with both the yogis and the DJs feeding off each other's energies -- is intensely spiritual. Last month, Mental Physix took their Technic1200s on the road and toured yoga studios around California, Nevada, Colorado and Utah.

On Saturday, Mental Physix will be performing at the One Consciousness of Love and Light Festival (www.1ConsLoveLight.com) in Anaheim. The festival will feature meditation, dance performances, lots of yoga and healthy, organic food served throughout the day.

Why play live music for yoga?
Santa Ana: Music for yoga is unique. Certain tones and frequencies can enhance your practice and bring you to a certain level of vibratory frequency. Music during yoga can create calmness or raise the intensity of a practice. Yoga is like a dance, and we provide the soundtrack. Doing music for yoga also allows us to assist teachers in creating an amazing playlist -- freeing up the teachers time to focus more on their flows. Having a DJ present in the studio adds another exciting element, allowing the DJs, teachers, and students to exchange and feed off one one another's energy.
Ali: Music adds depth to the practice and can help take you on a journey with the flow of the class.

How have people reacted to your music during classes? 
Santa Ana: The reception to our music has been amazing so far. We've been receiving great feedback both from teachers and students. This overwhelming support has motivated us to further our movement. 
Ali: One of the craziest things we've heard was that someone felt like they had an outer body experience by the end of the class!

Did u catch the Gestation (ART PIECE) in our VIDEO?

Gestation (ART PIECE)

Santa Monica, CA

Gestation is located on the edge of the continent and its central opening frames the elements of water, sunlight, earth, and air-the dynamic relationships that foster creation, regeneration, and birth. The form of the sculpture grows from this circular central opening into a structure that allows visitors to enter the form and rest within its quiet embrace.

When the Sun appears in the top of this aperture, it announces the beginning of the solstice season. Each day the Sun will appear lower in this aperture until the day of the Winter Solstice. On this day the Sun sets exactly in the middle of this opening, marking the celebration of the rebirth of the life of the Sun-the conception of the coming birth of Spring.

WSJ reports: Doctor's Orders: 20 Minutes Of Meditation Twice a Day

Researchers are exploring the 

benefits of meditation on 

everything from heart disease to obesity. 

Integrative medicine programs including meditation 

are increasingly showing up 

at hospitals and clinics 

across the country. 

Recent research has found that meditation can lower blood pressure and help patients 

with chronic illness 

cope with 

pain and depression.

While it is clear that "when you breathe in a very slow, conscious way it temporarily lowers your blood pressure," such techniques shouldn't be used to substitute for medications to manage high blood pressure and other serious conditions, said Josephine Briggs, director of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, part of the National Institutes of Health. In general, she said, meditation can be useful for symptom management, not to cure or treat disease.

Recent research found that meditation can result in molecular changes affecting the length of telomeres, a protective covering at the end of chromosomes that gets shorter as people age.

The Chakras

Below is details of the colours of the chakras and how they work and what they do. 

There are 7 main chakras in the body 

starting from the top of the head 

and ending right at the bottom of the spine.

Let your 8th chakra - Aura - 

radiate the beautiful soul that you are.

We are Atma (soul) born for a human experience; 

we are not a human born for spiritual experience. ~ Yogi Bhajan

Chakra (in Sanskrit) = Wheel / Disk

Chakras in the body are centers of exchange between the psychic and physical dimensions.  Like transformer, they change subtle prana (life energy / breathe) into physical energy flowing through a system of "nadis" (psychic channels like the meridian system of Oriental medicine).  Chakras are energy vortexes perceived as spinning discs of light situated along the spine. 

Traditionally, there are 7 Chakras and Yogi Bhajan designated the Aura (electro-magnetic field) as the 8th.  When the chakras are opened the particular talents of each are assimilated and consolidated into the character and behavior of the person.

The chakras correlate to levels of consciousness, archetypal elements, developmental stages of life, colours, sounds and body functions.

DETOUR....to the sacred Joshua Tree Retreat Center!

Sat nam (the truth is my identity).  

Magic surrounded the Joshua Tree Retreat Center 

for the Sat Nam Fest West Festival this past weekend!

Our hearts were opened as we chanted with Snatam Kaur, Mirabai Ceiba, The GuruGanesha Band, Gurunam Singh, Jai-Jagdeesh, Simrit Kaur, Aykanna and Nirinjan Kaur.  Our souls were nourished & our spirits moved with Kundalini Yoga kriyas taught by Gurmukh, Guru Singh, Harijiwan, Krishna Kaur, Sat Siri and Akasha.

You have never learned that if you give time to the spirit & soul you can be more excellent than all the professions in the world. Because as all rivers come to the ocean, every profession seeks spiritual guidance. ~Yogi Bhajan

We sought spiritual guidance

 to flow with the present time... 

And we were blessed with this loving & uplifting community 
in this perfect time & space!

Ambrosial Thought to Start Your Day: What is your Reality?

Our modern lifestyle is changing its sense of time and space, relatedness, and relevancy.  Today, there are no secrets!  We are flooded with information.  

Through the Rabbit Hole... Lewis Carrol’s
Alice ADVENTURES in Wonderland

Information is not enough. Neither is knowledge. We need wisdom.

We are exposed to and use more sophisticated devices and software faster and faster.  This increased electronic technologies only brings us more information, more choices, more contacts, and more complexity.  

How are you coping with this widespread and added stress... fighting against this modern lifestyle, withdrawing, or fantasizing more? Or are you over-using caffeine and other stimulants (sugary foods, alcohol, drugs, overworking, energy drinks, high octane sports, loud music, etc)?

"Oh dear! Oh dear!
I shall be too late!"
says the Rabbit

In our technology-filled world, each of our actions can now be tracked regardless of appearances... every one of our money exchange, statement and behavior leaves a trail.  We are known by our actions.  Each action we take must be considered ecologically, and globally, because each person does affect, directly or indirectly, vast networks of people, and other living beings and places.  There is no isolation. 

This is an age of paradox-more global and more individual. with fewer boundaries and more demand for political separations.  Everything is faster and we have less time.  We need far more love and unity, for we have more fear and tremendous insecurity.

Complexity is increasing as is our need to deal with it!  Our sense of personal identity and its foundation is shifting.  Change and learning is continuous and life-long. We must maintain mental. emotional. and physical flexibility.

"I wonder if I shall fall fight through the earth!
How funny it'll seem to come out
among the people that walk
with their heads downwards!" say Alice

Learning is not enough. We must learn how to learn.

Intellect is not enough. We need a new relationship to intuition, emotion and instinct.

Your real value comes from truth embodied in practical actions and in the internal caliber and qualities of your mind and heart! 

 Keep up and you will be kept up. ~Yogi Bhajan

Express & accept your wholeness
with each committed action.  

Let your actions demonstrate wisdom!

Connect with your community &
celebrate with Music, Zumba & Yoga.
