Today, do you have images of a festive holiday table filled with food and a house full of friends and family? Or maybe you’re thinking of a fine meal and a quiet gathering with that special person. For all of our friends in the US, Thursday is the Thanksgiving holiday.
Of course we always recommend staying in the present moment, in the NOW moment. For many people, especially during the holiday time of year, that idea is even more important. NOW is the only time when we have the power to make things happen. NOW is the essence of a happy life.
The day after Thanksgiving is the start of a big selling craze for gift giving at Christmas and Hanukkah. It’s a really big “push” for commercial activity. The psychology of selling and economics of the holidays will be left to others to discuss.
But if you’re a bit of a rebel and are looking for a deeper meaning during the holidays or a way to celebrate with others and engage in sincere gift-giving; then listen to the insights from our guests, Jenn Jarecki and Miv London on our November episode of Yoga NOW.
Getting back to the idea of NOW, Thanksgiving is almost here and then it’s Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and the race is on! Or you could check out the show, right NOW and find a different “way of being” that’s soothing to your soul during the holidays.
From Yoga NOW and CNOW.tv; we wish all of our friends around the world, the best of the season. – Namaste

The HOLIDAYS – Ugh. Everyone expects something from you – kids, parents, family, friends, or spouse. It’s even more during the holiday season! They’re expecting gifts, extravagant feasts, and parties. And it’s your job to make that come true, right? You know it and everyone else does too. So you’ll go to the ends of the earth to make everyone happy – even if it means you become miserable.
Where does all of that emotion and motivation come from? If you’re thinking that all of the “must have, must do” push comes from “out there”; that’s only part of the story. Each of us has more to do with what’s happening in our life than we might think!
Try this thought; be the master of all that happens in your life. If things are going well, it’s your doing. If your life seems dull, that too is all yours. The great news is; since you’re laying claim to everything in your life, you can shape it and change it and make it be what you want. You don’t need to ask anyone’s permission before making changes because it’s all yours. You are the owner of the life that you create. You can darn well change it at the time and in the way that you like!
Coming back to the holiday season, Jenn and Miv give you a point of view and excellent practical tips on how you can create a holiday season that matches the dream that YOU have for yourself. (See the 2 minute preview below)

Jane Lanza: In our society, the message reads, “Gifts equal fulfillment. You get this product at the holidays, and you will be satisfied.”
Jenn Jarecki: I would say that is the message. I’m not sure that’s exactly the experience. I saw once this father had purchased some ridiculously expensive video game thing for his 3-year-old, and the video shows this kid ripping it open, rips it out of the box, places it to the side and is head over heels for the box.
Miv London: I think the basic message of yoga is that fulfillment doesn’t come from external objects or spending money or stuff, but that fulfillment comes from within. It comes from finding peace and contentment in your own self and from discovering your true nature, which is living, open, peaceful, and kind.
Jane Lanza: Thanks Miv for mentioning metta meditation, loving kindness. It’s a direct experience and a cultivation of gratitude. Let’s go ahead and practice metta meditation now. Do you mind leading this for us?

Give like a yogi during the holidays. You don’t need to spend a lot, just spend wisely and achieve greater satisfaction.
Jane Lanza: Hi. Welcome to another episode of Yoga Now CNOW.tv. I’m your host Jane Lanza. Our guests today are Todd Otten and Candace Taylor. Welcome to the show.
Todd Otten: Thank you, Jane.
Candice Taylor: Thank you. I’m happy to be here.
Jane Lanza: Today our show is about ordinary people living extraordinary lives. These two individuals have been transformed by the power of yoga as have many of us who walked yogic path.
Candice Taylor: In 2007, when I moved to Vermont, after probably one of the most difficult experiences in my life, I had been in an incredibly violent marriage for about 5 or 6 years, and it took quite some time and courage to leave that relationship. So once I did, I relocated to Burlington, Vermont. I fell into a yoga class, and it really helped me in that process in my life, where I was deeply emotionally just devastated and lost. I was a dancer. That was my background. I had been a dancer all my life, since I was a little girl. Took professional ballet, tap, jazz, and in college I was working very closely with the head of dance and was doing Afro-Cuban dance, West African dance and dancing. Whenever I could know or experience the word “freedom,” it was through dance and body movement. So I decided that yoga would be a good opportunity for me to maybe reconnect with myself in an empowering way at a time when I didn’t feel so powerful.
Todd Otten: I started off in this practice a few years ago. I was depressed and recovering from injury and multiple surgeries that didn’t work out. It was suggested to me to try yoga. My doctor referred me to some yoga therapy, and I got involved in that. The next thing you know my yoga therapist was encouraging me to get out into the community and take regular yoga classes in yoga studios. I started doing that, and that basically opened up a whole new world for me.
