To be happy when things go our way, and to be happy still when things don't go our way.... that is definitely what I want to learn and embody by practicing yoga. Thanks so much!!
It’s amazing how you explain your philosophy to the student! You seem to say what others are thinking or needing to hear! It takes years of living life and intense studying to become like you and that is truly amazing! You’re so young and beautiful and exhibit a very passionate spirit about you and it affects and effects others? I just wanted to share this with you and say Thank you! Love you, Michael 🙏
In the studio I go to I had a teacher I frequented ask me to do a hard pose and I had some knee discomfort for almost a week afterwards because I was trying too hard to do something I was not ready for. As a result I chose to try other teachers in the studio for awhile. I blamed her, but this video made me realize that she believed in my ability. It was my own fault, too, really, I should have obeyed my body's signals. I foolishly wanted to impress her. I did go back to her class recently and she was so happy I was back. I explained why I was away for awhile to her too. Thanks Kino!
Kino: El encontrarme con tus enseñanzas definitivamente inspira mi practica diaria. Gracias por expandir el conocimiento de la practica para todo el mundo, así como también el compartir tus experiencias dentro de la misma . :) Me encantan tus vídeos y también tu estilo ,que tengas siempre mucha luz en tu camino. Saludos desde México D.F.
I swear everytime you do a Living the Yogis Life video it is aways answering my questions or what I need to hear at the moment. When I was doing your core video yesterday you mention to stay strong in the mind or body and I thought to myself how do I do that. I realize that it is a inner journey and one that i am truly working on, but this video right here just made something click in my head and I really get it now! I have to push myself to that point where I dont give up because man isn't easier to just quit. But if i do that then how will I ever truly grow. It comes to a point of what kind of person do I want to be the person that only talks or wishes, or the person that takes action and perservere
Kino, teaching yoga is like parenting! The most difficult part for me is to watch what they do without say anything. I see reflections of my life in the journey of yoga. Thank you for this video, Kono!
Thank you Kino for this video! I agree with what you said about working right on the edge and learning the difference between a challenge and entering a dangerous area where you can injure yourself. I think in our daily life we need to realise where that line is too and yoga is a perfect teacher for it. And of course teacher of rising up to a challenge too. I would like to thank you for your videos. I really find them inspiring and helping with staying on a yoga path. Both in terms of asana practice and spiritual path. Especially now when I don't have the opportunity to attend yoga classes. Today you said exactly what I needed to hear. I am in a moment in life when I was kind of 'left alone' and now I can see (again) how good that actually is. Thank you :) Namaste
Hi Kino! I just discovered your channel yesterday and already you have given me so much inspiration to keep going with my practice! Thank you so much for what you do. Much love xo
Funny ...I was just sitting outside w candle light thunder storm and my 7 year old James is watching RU-vid videos so I kick my feet up and hit your video and I said my favorite person and my son says o Kino dad !..Kino Dad ...do some moves do some yoga. Lol you are very inspiring and will be for generations .
Kino, você é incrivel. Me inspirou tanto. Eu pratico yoga sozinha faz alguns meses e descobri o quanto a prática é essencial pra minha vida. No início eu estava viciada em praticar, agora eu continuo muito apaixonada mad vai ficando difícil não ter ninguém além de mim pra dizer que eu posso ir além. Mas isso não significa nem por um segundo que eu quero desistir. A internet hoje também proporciona o seu encontro com uma comunidade de pessoas que se apoiam, instagram, facebook, também me proporcionam um pouco de incentivo. Mas o maior incentivo mesmo vem de mim e eu tenho me surpreendido comigo mesma, me inspiro muito na frase "Find a stronger version of yourself everyday". Obrigada por mais essa força. Yoga é um desafio constante extremamente saudável para o corpo e para a mente.
This was so emotional..You made me cry..My teacher does the exact things and my thoughts were exactly the same you described..Thank you so much for existing and helping us to get over our fears
I really loved this Living the Yogi's Life! You are awesome, when you speak from your heart, and I really loved the message that you are telling! Thank you so much for so great inspiration!
Also, I didn't know you pushed yourself to the point of wanting to quit on a daily basis but I guess that's what it takes to be good. You make it look really easy :)
Hi Kino! I'm not sure if you've covered this before, but I wondered if you could do a "Living the Yogis Life" video on the subject of self acceptance and self love? I feel that comparing oneself to other people can be quite hard a negative thought process to overcome and can trigger a lot of insecurities eg: I'm not as slim/good looking/bendy/ good at yoga/clever/ popular etc etc as him or her. I think yoga can teach us a lot of lessons on this subject matter? PS: wonderful video as always, thank you for spreading your wisdom :) x
***** thanks I getting there appreciate what you do I guess I been concentrating more in my self and is been much easier to live n peace anywhere thank, you and the technology too
I do appreciate you putting forth your view. I understand; however, there is a lot of conforming and obedience in this. The go to examples are trained dogs and military? It's a different world view and I respect it. I will say as a yoga practitioner it does not ring true for me personally. I would guess though, you most likely agree we must teach the student in front us. The student too will find the teacher, teaching style and method that works best for them. I only hope with such adherence to this path the student arrives at the point they can think for themselves.
***** I listened to the whole video. I have listened to lots of Kino videos. I have read her book. I have even taken a workshop with her. I appreciate her as a person. I am just sharing I don't have this point of view and still practice yoga. People can imagine there is not only one way to look at this.
Romina Jones Very true. Each of us are on a different path. What enhances the quality of your practice may not do the same for others, and vice versa. Your personal awareness of this, shows that you are indeed heading in the right direction.
