I have been suffering from depression for 9 years now but this year I realized that I could never better the way I felt about life, myself and others without a connection to my inner self. I discovered yoga and I started my journey to reconnect with myself. I think it's saving my life. You are a beautiful soul and you did here changes my perspective every single day... thank you from the bottom of my heart dearest Simon
@@yogasynergy_teachertraining there is one way how we can unconditionally help others and our self too...we use an agnihotra as that tool...please visit agnihotra.pl/en/ for more info it is better for understanding that I try to not promote some dogma based on hinduism or other ism...Peace
Simon you are amazing in spirt mind and body. Thankfully you are on this planet at this time. Alessandro, beautiful video and great passion to share. Thank you x
Wow! Just wow! I think I've just had a life transformation. Enjoy your life. Look after your body. Help other people enjoy their lives. Thee simple rules that can change your life...and the lives of others. I love it! Thanks so much!
Thanks Simon for encapsulating your perceptions of the sutras in such rich language we can live with in the modern world. So lovely to see your journey and I love and resonate with your three principles. Bring joy!
Beautiful! I have started practicing yoga about 1 year and this video inspired me to practice more and more. all of my pratices are at home and this was brilliant!
This is so beautiful. The way Simon moves his hands and legs, how he breathes, how he uses his body is breathtaking. What moves me more are the words said. Thank you for making and sharing this. ❤
+Diana Pascual - thank you so much for what you have said here - i also feel that what i have said is so much more important than my physical practice - but it actually was a very lovely practice that morning in a truly magical beach in india that i have been visiting for 30 years
+Diana Pascual - if you come to india in March next year we are doing a 200 hour intensive course which you could join if you wish - or if you would like to just visit and share a meal that would be lovely too
You just made me cry at the realization that this is how I've begun to live. I'm truly on the yogic path, and thank-you so much for making sure my eyes are open. Thank-you and namaste
Hi Simon, not a problem - I've watched this many times and it truly speaks to me. It's people like you that make it a lot easier to break out the comfort zones and become who we truly are. Thank-you. Always. :)
I met Simon in Rishikesh at the International Yoga Festival, he is a truly inspirational guy. He carries such an honesty, inquisitiveness and almost infectious compassion that I felt honoured to be in the presence of. One day I hope to meet him again, to train with him, to learn from him. Until then, I find this video epitimises his character, his philosophy and, what I believe is, the core meaning of Yoga.
+Paula Andrea Vahos - thank you so much - i appreciate what you have said - there is so much fancy posture 'yoga' in the world - and i can still do some 'fancy' poses, but they are so transitory, generally much easier when you are youger too - as you get older you really start to feel that there are much more important things in life and yoga - posture is such a small part of real yoga - living in love and sharing that love is much more important
Fantastic definition of yoga, yoga is to take care of yourself than you can take care of others, give little time in a day to connect with your own self. thanks and namaste. Myself Deepa Singhal from India.
Some great comments on here. I too came to practice yoga after seeing this video, now two years on I am only just learning what real yoga is. I get a zest for life during and after practice. I want more more more. I hope to one day meet Simon and learn and one day teach in some capacity.
I love how this is explained. Fill your cup first. Enjoy your body. Then teach others to enjoy their body. It speaks of us shining our light to the world. Rather than forcing our beliefs on others. Beautiful stuff.
As I stroll thru your beautiful videos I'm fully experiencing a truly lovely gift that your have blessed us with...these elegant glimpses of inspirational yoga practices ...thank you 🙏🏼
@@SimonBorgOlivier Hey Simon, will reveal to you via mail my incredible story by years end. Corona delayed my breakout by at least half a year. Keep spreading the Light my friend :)
@@SimonBorgOlivier I have your address already. You will be shocked with my story... My twitter handle is MASTER OF THE IMPOSSIBLE for a reason. We absolutely MUST keep spreading the Light. The world more than ever is in need of the Lightworkers.
This was incredibly moving. Your message brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful having had this experience. You would not understand the impact this message has had on not only myself, but I'm sure many other individuals who have viewed this. I would like to follow further into how yoga came into your life and how did the changes impact you at the start of your journey. Thank you again.
thank you so much for your kind words - they mean the world to me. You are see more on my on our yogasynergy youtube channel and also in our blog at www.yogasynergy.com - best wishes simon
His program looks so graceful and meditative ahhhh ❤❤❤ I've just started putting my own program together recently, still working out some kinks. It's a bit jerky haha, sometimes I have to stop and try to remember the next movement, but I'm getting there! Hopefully it will have the same sort of vibe as this guy's when I'm done.
- thank you for you kind comment - all it takes for this is regular practice and for a while it is good to have a set sequence and then after some years you can be free-form which is what i am doing this video - cheers
+Connie Sinclair - thank you Connie - this was a very impromptu one take only voice over and a very impromptu demonstration so i am happy you think it was was ok
Hi Julian - thank you for your kind words - i have had many great teachers of many decades including Sri BKS Iyengar and many others. I have been very fortunate indeed. I will be in Germany again in July 2017 - best wishes simon
Simon - we did it! 5 months later and happy to call you Teacher. Thanks for a truly fantastic learning experience in Goa with Bianca. I see it as a 1 month investment in my mental, physical, physiological and spiritual well being. Time to build my own practice with a strong foundation in Yoga Synergy! For the record, my belly is getting more and more relaxed by the day. Look forward to baby belly comparisons next time we meet (and also to see what other new tricks you've picked up i.e., evolution :p). Please send my love to Bianca, Eva & the Family back home.. your little brother. T
Strength in gentleness, gentleness in strength.. a graceful bodhisattva dear Simon. You've inspired me to love my body more so that I may truly help others. And to love my body means to understand it, to care for it, and to move it daily - even if it's for a little. I've made an intention to study anatomy (David Keil's book is on its way), as well as, pranayama, and I plan to take your online courses. I've made an intention to learn from you in the teacher training in Goa, Sydney is fairly distant from Dubai and requires stronger will power :), in 2016 or perhaps 2017. I've made an intention to learn from one of your students in the meantime in Dubai or Abu Dhabi. I've also made an intention to apply what I learn every day, on the mat and more importantly off the mat. Now it's time to practice and make these intentions a reality for myself. Thank you for sharing this wonderful collaboration Simon & Alessandro and a load of gratitude to all the wonderful teachers who've passed this wisdom through the ages. Keep filming & yoga on!
+Tarek Karam - thank you for your lovely words. I really hope you can come and study with us in Goa. I am probably going to do some short workshops in Dubai in September too. Cheers and best wishes. Simon
Dear Simon, thank you for this wonderful experience at vishnus vibes!!! It was so inspiring and encouraging! Thank you for this very, very special experience. Love and light, Frank :-)
Michele Dillon thank you! I get most of my musics from online music libraries, not from famous artists, for obvious copyright reasons. When I don't specify the track like in this case, that's why.
Now there is someone who understands asana. You can see the internal movement of apana and prana coursing through the body, even in a video. If someone asks, what is yoga? link them to this video. He does and understands, while I am merely aspiring.
Well, six years on, and I am still at it! Get out of bed in the morning and do a yoga warm-up routine I was taught by a student of Shandor ( shadow yoga). Then, move on to an asana routine for 35 or 45 minutes. Turn 75 this summer ( God willing, of course!) Began yoga in 2006 and maintained a consistent practice ever since. Can't imagine what I would be like today, mentally, spiritually, emotionally, or physically without yoga. I consider it a gift from God and am thankful for the wholistic fruits reaped from it. 🙂
hi Tokeby - i do teach the breathing of these sequences but for most people it is best just to let the body breathe for you. Thank you so much for your interest - best wishes simon
This is so beautiful. Your words have left me with tingles and feeling so inspired. Your movement is just amazing and I wish I could do more classes with you! x
Every movement we make that is filled with Love is the answer to the question "Who am I?". Let Love make pirouettes with your body, let It draw hearts with your hands around the air. Allow Love to show you how to steal the throne of beauty from the beach and the blue sky and let It help you to sit on in for a brief moment. When we learn that all of them, the beach and the beautiful blue sky are just instruments of Love for us and because of us, than only gratitude remains, for we are One with them. Than all of it warps around, squirms around into our our consciousness to love endlessly.
:-)Namaste Simon..we have meet in 2004 at Yoga play Boron Bay..Yoga also has been and continue to be Path that lead me to Connecting Within with That which cannot be defined in words.. My True Self discovery has however come through the Teaching of Mysticism of the Master The Christ Jesus... Nevertheless Unconditional Universal Love IS the Essence of All True Teachings..may Infinite Blessings Love and Light Always guide you on this Soul Journey..
