Hippy-anjali Yoga Notations
***
i ...
Yoga is the inner releasing action, meditation {relaxation response}, of the bodymind/brain for we language-using human primates
ii ...
~ Practice Restorative Hippy Anjali Yoga Notations' bodymind explorations
including YogaPoses' inner movements playfully, {which seek to move online with interactive yoga avatarbots, beyond interactive Yoga via video conferencing} ~
~ Play and learn from these inner releasing actions & listen inside to what comes up
~ Care with compassion, ~ and enjoyably travel to hot springs for meditation in warm pools ...
{I'm thinking here of meditating in the warm pool of Harbin Hot Springs} ...
or meditate at home in your bath tub {in a virtual Harbin eventually}, and open your awareness/find benefit in daily travel like walking
~ There's much wellness in, and scientific evidence for the health benefits of, in general, a low-fat, natural foods' diet (e.g. 10-15 servings of fruits, grains, vegetables and legumes per day), an egg for protein, as well as 30 minutes of daily movement, some aerobic like dancing; do Yoga, it's healing
**
1. Helpful guidelines for care / love in living? Be ethical (per the 'nons' eg celebrating non-harming, etc.:).In the information age re Hippy-Yoga, am appreciative too of Google's "Don't be evil" philosophy, Creative Commons, and Stanford Law thinking re law in each of all ~200 nation states 2. Positive observances ~ unwind with daily Yoga meditation as inner releasing actions (eliciting relaxation response neurophysiology)
3. Yoga bodymind explorations including inner movement ~ play
4. Breathing ~ Mmmmm feels so good {easing & visionary Pranayama-wise} ~ explore
5. Come home inside into your bodymind at times to regenerate yourself
6. Focus in releasing ways to connect in a kind of oneness in neurophysiology
(and re Csikszentmihalyi's "Flow" experience & see: http://www.scottmacleod.com/EudaimoniaFlow.htm)
7. Connectedness and "it's just happening"
8. Bring it on home ~ Oneness ~ Cosmic Consciousness
1.
~ Non-harming (yummy vegetarian food ~ yams :) ~ with an egg and multi-vitamin, for vitamin B12 and iron too, which are lacking in an ovo-lacto vegetarian diet, per day are a boon)
~ Truthfulness, Integrity, Honesty~ Non-stealingYou can get free money daily here ~ https://minepi.com/sgkmac ~ (Stanford Mine Pi coin cryptocurrency) . . . for Universal Basic Income EXPERIMENTS too to all 7.9 billion people on the planet ~ Non-possessiveness ~ Give things to charity
~ Learning from other species, hippy human primate yogis as potentially free Bonobo chimpanzees can revel in sexuality/intimacy/touch, but explore restraint in these regards, where non-harming and care can be and are significant balances for sexuality that damages; some alternative hippy Yogi human primates will freely choose to restrain from sexuality/lust {brahmacharya} of course; Opening to, and nourishing, wondrous love and sexuality as far-reaching metaphorical "information technologies" together as duet between partners - in fidelity - & in a marriage too, is the best {here are possible approaches ~ http://scottmacleod.com/GuidelinesPracticingLovingBlissvavMusicalInstrument.htm}; have kids if you like, and raise good families; hippy Yogini earth mother says have lots of babies and raise them well & with much love
~ Adhibit (Engage), troop bond and pair bond with grace and ecological balance with others (re John Money's "Concepts of Determinism" ~ http://scottmacleod.com/anthropology/determinism.htm)

2.
~ Attune yourself through daily exploration of an inner releasing action {relaxation response} as a kind of inner bodymind house cleansing
~ Contentment neurophysiology brain-wise can be facilitated with the harmonizing effect of omega-3 fatty acids (flax seed oil capsules, 7-10 per day?) ...
~ Simplicity in Friendly Gatherings / unprogrammed distributed Quaker Meeting / non-theistic F/friendly/NtF / atheistic Quaker senses is great {and all the SPICES ~ simplicity, peace, integrity, community, equality and stewardship ~ too; conscientious objection, as well}
~ Cultivate learning consciousness of your own neurophysiology (much more STEM research needed, and at subatomic / quantum physics' levels too) and actions, and conversation in these regards with a counselor~psychotherapist {e.g. self awareness therapy} if this would be helpful ... Explore Jacques Lacan MD and hippy psychoanalysis/psychiatry {'Jacques Lacan Parle' ~ https://youtu.be/-HBnLAK4_Cc -~ and use language~speak~write (and seek Lacanian MD psychoanalysis, or similar MD psychiatry, in the event of being abused or similar).
... and ... https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/09/bottlenose-dolphin-jacques-lacan-md-and.html} ... Opening to freedom (as in the student and hippy freedom-seeking movements of the 1960s and '70s, for example, which further opened America to Yoga), be aware of the religious Yogic MEMES (i.e. replicating cultural units) in your bodyminds, - for example, chanting, that may take away your freedom as an individual, even while beneficially focusing the mind and creating "flow" experiences,
{think e.g. hippy-yogi critical thinking and reasoning}~ Bond well with your community, tribe, your partner(s), in a contented marriage, your group, your wildness too; lie on your back for the relaxation response daily, and if this emerges as a kind of inner attuning devotion {LOVE, here}, great
* *Yoga genetics-wise too, scientifically ...
Yoga GENETICS and Yoga Ethics too even re Yoga Athletics, and possibly with the Olympics and vaccines for performance ... see below). ...
With a Harvard undergrad degree and a Stanford PhD, she is {Holly K Tabor} very skilled language and thinking-wise. Here are 4 foundations of ethics, and for her too -
~ beneficence, nonmaleficence (non-wrongdoing), autonomy, and justice ~
which I appreciate a lot (and Regarding also newly exploring Yoga GENETICS and Yoga Ethics too even re, again, Yoga Athletics, and possibly with the Olympics and vaccines for performance ... see below). ... and regarding calling for abolition, (of the wrongful buying and selling of people), and possibly seeking asylum soon on the east coast or in Europe ...

inner Yoga inner bodymind breathing explorations ...
Lying on your back, can you release your nostril skin around you breath to create more space and ease and openness as you inhale and exhale? Can you explore this in easy pose sitting, or in half lotus?
5.
Come home inside into your bodymind at times to bring light there ~ Lighting Up the Hidden Corners of Our Inner House.' (And drop out - re withdrawl of senses' idea - of unethical Yoga teachers' classes, if inclined, & regarding conscientious objection too, regarding coming inside in Friends' friendly Quaker Meetings regarding a Friendly Quaker 'leading' you might have ~ and in protest, or boycott). Tune in inside to your own inner bodymind's releasing action instead, since this inner-turning-releasing happens in meditation anyway; enjoy withdrawing inwardly your neurophysiology while meditating:).

Berry-head-Sun-Sun, Yoga human-warmth Philosophy?
Patanjali's Yoga Sutras begin with what is often translated as "Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind," which is also often chanted. At least my wee Hippy-Yoga-Notations-Meditations don't leave the reader-yogi dead from the outset of the Sutras :) (in my interpretation here, and with concerns about such language, translated from a beautiful old Sanskrit language, and en-culturated over some 2000 years ... hopping some oceans in between) ...
Not sure why my veggie-ness (being an ovo-lacto-vegetarian, which I was also when I lived the first year in Scotland in 1976-1977, - being a child of the '60s that I am, and a bit of a peachy-peace-head rebel) seems to have a beneficial ecology .. (in my life) ... seeking a natural concept for a kind of karma idea here, an internet-ecology-communications-web, with inclusiveness for biology/neurophysiology/symbols-internet/evolutionary biology's 3-100 million species's as significant related ideas ... and re the fish oil / flax oil harmonizing and brightening effect bennies (benefits) of omega 3s (for me, at one time especially when doing anthropological field work at Harbin over about 10 years) ... & how would this internet-ecology work and re Harbin too? ... with learning-from-Bonobo in these Yoga-Notations too ...

*If Yoga devotion is love is bonding is joining is uniting , and regarding too, John Money's . . . Pairbondage'Pairbondage Pairbondage means being bonded together in pairs, as in the parent-child pairbond, or the pairbond of those who are lovers or breeding partners. In everyday usage, bondage implies servitude or enforced submission. Although pairbondage is defined so as not to exclude this restrictive connotation, it has a larger meaning that encompasses also mutual dependency and cooperation, and affectional attachment. Pairbondage has a twofold phyletic origin in mammals. One is mutual attachment between a nursing mother and her feeding baby, without which the young fail to survive. The other is mutual attraction between males and females, and their accommodation to one another in mating, without which a diecious species fails to reproduce itself. Male - female pairbonding is species specific and individually variable with respect to its duration and the proximity of the pair. In human beings, the two extremes are represented by anonymous donor fertilization versus lifelong allegiance and copulatory fidelity.' Troopbondage . . . Abidance . . . Ycleptance . . . Foredoomance . . . {Concepts of Determinism from John Money, PhD ~ http://scottmacleod.com/anthropology/determinism.htm} *
. . . Some Hippy-anjali Yoga Notations' further musings,
and since ...
'Yoga' is derived from the Sanskrit root 'Yuj', and
"Yoga" means 'to join' or 'to yoke' or 'to unite, and
"Bond" means to join, or a relationship between people or groups based on shared feelings, interests, or experiences, and
"Love" means
strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties maternal love · attraction based on sexual desire : affection, or
or an intense feeling of deep affection, and
"Devotion" means great love, affection, or admiration for someone
could pair bonding - and genetically or evolutionary biology-wise - mean loving partner, and could troop bonding mean loving family or group (since we all come from pairbonds back to the beginning of our primate lives, millions of years ago?
