Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum
Hey Y'all,

What's going on? Well, I got a few Asanas in last night. I have got to be careful with my neck. Whenever, I do Meenasanam (Fish pose) and Pathi Meenasanam (Half Fish Pose)

I arch my back and rest the crown of my head on the floor. This is part of the asana on Pathi Meenasanam but just an effect of ME doing Meenasanam. (Gotta figure out if I'm doing that right) I gotta protect my Neck!

My neck is a lil sore this morning but still I feel good! I've been meatless for almost a month! Whoo Whoo! I like the way I feel. I don't feel gassy! I don't feel heavy and sluggish! That's right no heartburn!
My Wife, tells me I smell different now. I agree. My sweat does not smell as acidic and prugant. This is a good thing plus while there is more flatulence there's less of the silent but absolutely deadly kinds! (Laughter) Oh come on you pansies!
We all Fart! So let's not be so frigid about it!
Please let me know if you have asanas that will help me strengthen my neck. I need em!
And please let's share meatless recipes! I'm trying to be meatless without using the veggie meats!
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti!

Mista Jaycee has gone Meatless!


Hey Y'all,
Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum!

I have not gone vegetarian....yet! But I've going meatless for a while.

Why? Is it your LDL? Did you join PETA?
No, and NO! Although, I dig the Lettuce Ladies! No, I am concerned for my future health but I also want to look and feel great in my present life! I want to feel good and I want to feel good about the way I look too! ''

It's that kinda vain Mista Jaycee?

Yeah, but so what! Vain to want to look good! Yeah! Vain to want to feel good! NO, Never! We were created perfect but we are not now perfect nor are we perfected! So, we must strive towards perfection all the while we being perfected!

I'm doing my part! I'm feeling good so far, although I do want a piece of steak!

Om Shanti Shanti Aum!

Practice Y'all! Practice!


Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum

Hey Y'all,

The past month has been an absolute Mutha----! I've had to meditate and Pray and with that comes today's post.

You must meditate and pray everyday! Remember, when I posted about looking for MCYOGA? You know instant gratitude? Ish don't exist! And if it does then you should flee from it!

No, daily practice is needed. It helps to strengthen your faith by teaching you patience.

Ha! Patience! I have none! Y'all know that!

So, On with my daily prayers and meditation. Practice y'all Practice!

Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum!

BE Prayerful! BE Mindful! BE Careful!

One Day! One Breath at a time!

Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum!

I didn't get through all 18 Asanas when I practiced but I managed to get in some consistent practice this weekend. I enjoyed it and I felt totally relaxed! I really tried to slow down and hold each Asana for a while.
One Day and One Breath at a time right? Well, I hope that you all had a Happy Easter!
BE Careful! BE Mindful! BE Prayerful!

Mista Jaycee goes in search of Mac Yoga!

Photo by "Junior"

Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum!

The left side of my back hurt like a Sonavabytch! I couldn't move my neck from side to side.

A old, fat dude, like yourself can't do all them yoga exercises Mista Jaycee!

Who you calling old?

It wasn't the Yoga that hurt me. It was the Yoga that helped me!

Splain Mista Jaycee!

Dig, I went to yoga, after a couple of days, of serious pain. Vicodin did not help! Heating pads only went so far. I went to yoga, looking for some kinda stretch, that was get me out of pain. Some mantra of meditation that I could learn in five minutes that would eliminate my suffering. So, I bent down into Kriyavasana, and couldn't lift my arms, above my head! I couldn't move my neck and rest on the crown of my head. I tried! Oh God! Pain! I had to stop!

I ended up sitting, and watching the class and doing a few exercises.

I went looking for MacYoga! That ish don't exist! If MacYoga does exists, I say flee from it! It will make you happy in the meantime, but leave you fat, unhealthy and ultimately hungry!

I started to move my neck from side to side. Slowly, painfully, but move it I did. Brahmacarya! (Moderation)

I noticed after a couple of days my neck was looser, more flexible, less painful, than when I began exercising it.

Soon, I was able to move it without pain fully. But I had to go slow. I had to allow my body to respond to the yoga. I had to give God (IAM) the time to heal me. See, God (IAM) healed me but he used the Yoga, and my faith in him to accomplish it!

The point is. There ain't no quick fixes to long term ish! Breathe!

That's right! Om Shanti Shanti Aum! (Supreme aspect of God (IAM) Peace Peace Earthly Reflection of God (IAM))

Breathe!

You work out things like pain, inflexibility, anger, money problems whatever! Slowly, with a real plan and you make adjustments whenever they are needed. Then, you will be successful!

Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum

Let it Go!

Om Kriya Babaji Namah Aum

I've practicing my breathing and meditation alot lately. I've needed to. I've been praying more too! Like everyone, I've been dealing with stress and anger. Some from things at work and some from things at home. God (IAM) is Good! He sent me what I needed, cause I happened upon Psalm 37, then a podcast by the "Bad Buddha" Ryu Cope. He spoke about Anger, and pointed out, that alot of us office jockeys don't get enough exercise. See, we like to get Angry! All that adrenaline, all those delicious endorphins! MMMMMM! I'm getting pissed off just thinking about it!
Just kidding!
(Laughter)
But "The Bad Buddha" hit the nail on the head for me. So I started to eat different, exercise more, and do a mental check list, prioritizing why, I was angry then trying to solve the problem or let it go!
There's that phrase again! "Let it gooooo!"

Most of the time I've found that right or wrong it was stuff I couldn't change or do anything about! I see people on Face Book, who are still dealing with or angry about ish that happened in High School! It's been 25 years! They angry that you called them Fat!

You were Fat! YOU were Huge! 5'4 and a size 28!

But now, you've slimmed down, to a sexxxy size 8, and you want me to drool! By the way, I am drooling for ya! But you want to see it! Then you can say Ha! Never Fool! You Wish!

And it comes down to all this time you've been angry over what a 16 year old did. That anger has fueled your revenge fantasy!

"I've come back a sexxxy size 8 to make them PAY! "


(Laughter)

If you think about it! You've missed and are probably still missing all the JOYS of you BEing a size 8! Instead of enjoying Life NOW! You pissed at something from 25 years ago, that a 16 year old did!

Sounds silly now don't it? Let it Gooooo! Om Shanti Shanti Shanti Shalom!

BE Prayerful! BE Mindful! BE Careful!
