Yoga & Intellect…

by Yoga Genie June 7, 2011

“The voice of the intellect is soft one, but it does not rest until it has gained a hearing. Ultimately, after endless rebuffs, it succeeds. This is one of the few points in which one may be optimistic about the future of mankind”.

– Some unlikely yoga wisdom from Sigmund Freud.

I did not expect to find a kindred spirit in Mr Freud… but I know EXACLTY what he means…

To the monkey mind, the intellect, the creative spirit… I hear you, I hold you in balance, I honour you.

Yours,

Yoga Genie

Restaurant reviewers find it easier to travel incognito, and so do I. I travel a lot for work and use this as an excuse check out yoga classes, yoga courses and yoga colleges around my home country, Australia. In this yoga blog, I refer to yoga centres in Sydney. I am not actually a yoga teacher, just a passionate yoga student.

I have practised yoga in the US and have done yoga courses in India but have no bias towards any yoga style. Actually, maybe I am biased to a yoga style, or at least certain methods of education applied in yoga courses, but I’ll leave it to you to find out what that is. My mission? I just want people to think a little deeper about yoga.
