Yoga Stories: Shilpi

Shilpi is originally from India but now lives in New Jersey, USA,
with her husband, daughter, son and enormous dog (Cosmo). Shilpi
was introduced to yoga by her Dad when she was a youngster. It
was a very physical practice with very little theory but she
continued to practise up until moving to the USA. She has
recently taken up yoga again, but perhaps this time with more
emphasis on yoga's philosophy and theory.

Shilpi's most common practice is the Vipassana form of
meditation. And mindfulness, it's utility and application, is
what led her to explore how children and youths could benefit
from these kinds of practices and observations. Beginning with
helping her own daughter, Shilpi went on to found an organisation
that provides mindfulness and meditation tools to children, their
parents, guardians and teachers.

Along the conversational way, we talk about what qualifications
might mean to setting up with your own idea and how fear can be a
motivator as well as something that holds you back if you don't
have it. We also learn that the verb "hustle" can be applied to
mindfulness and yoga too

Shilpi recommends "Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse, and "Be Here
Now" by Ram Dass. You don't need links to find them! Shilpi is an
inspiration to those looking to share what they have learned
about what this life might be all about and how to deal with it.
