Yogic Living Newsletter

March 2022 - Volume 1

March is the perfect time to cleanse the body and the mind. Spring, in the Northern Hemisphere, brings renewal and the opportunity to clean out waste in the liver that builds up over the Winter. For those in the Southern Hemisphere, March is also a great time to cleanse in preparation for the colder months ahead.

Kundalini Yoga and a yogic lifestyle offer kriyas that cleanse the internal organs, purifying pranayams, meditations that clean the subconscious mind, and cleansing diets and recipes. Here we offer a few of the many choices available for cleansing the body and mind.

The Navel Center and Elimination

In our modern lifestyle, we seldom walk or exercise the body enough to promote good elimination through the bowels. The buildup of wastes in the digestive tract prevents good absorption of nutrients and provides a breeding ground for bacteria and illness. This kriya works out the entire elimination system.

Breath Cleansing Pranayam

This short series can assist in balancing both your blood chemistry and mental state. It alternates between left-nostril breathing, right nostril breathing, Breath of Fire, and the opportunity for a short meditation.

Healing Ginger Lemon Drink

During the winter months when the cold and flu are rampant, it's crucial to ramp up your herbal medicine regimen. Ginger is a powerful antiviral that specifically helps with respiratory infections and lemon is a wonderful way to boost the immune system as well as bring the body's pH to alkaline. Both the lemon and the ginger also aid in digestion. This is a wonderful drink to incorporate during all seasons of the year.

March Numerology

The month of March brings a wave of creativity to the planet, and we can use this creative spark to ignite a new vision of life and increase our vitality. It’s all about how we are managing our energy these days, and March is a time to "reign it in" in regards to maintaining an increased awareness of our well-being.

Your Contribution Matters

Maybe a new teacher in Thailand is looking for a particular kriya. Or a lifelong student in Chicago wants a recipe for the weekend. Or someone who’s struggling in Australia needing to hear about seva and the solstice celebration. 3HO is for everyone, everywhere looking for connections to resources, inspiration, and community events as they engage in the path of Kundalini Yoga in their life.

Every day, someone gets on a yoga mat for the first or the thousandth time and uses 3HO resources — videos, posts, lives — to guide their practice. We are grateful for your support, as we expand our digital resources.
