The Significance of the Moon to Yoga		Close

If you are familiar with ashtanga yoga, you've probably been cautioned against practicing yoga at the time of a full or new moon.

This has little to do with the popular notion of higher incidences of accidents and birthings during full moons, but more to do with our internal energies at these times.

A full moon is the product of the sun and moon at opposite ends of each other, and the earth fixed between. This positioning causes both the sun and moon to gravitate to the earth, resulting in the pulling of tides in bodies of water. Alternately, a new moon occurs when both the sun and moon are in conjunction.

Jivamukti Yoga

Jivamukti Yoga attempts to counter the physical obsessed yoga practices that are common in the West, by integrating dynamic practice with teachings from ancient texts. The meaning of the name Jivamukti actually says it all - 'Liberation from seperation'. Founded in New York by David Life and Sharon Gannon, this relatively new style has spread across the world and is already seen as an authentic approach to the yoga teachings. As well as teaching the typical poses, a Jivamukti teacher will also offer up meditation, chanting and Sanskrit.
