March 2025 at Oyster Bay Yoga

Manifestation

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Happy March! As we transition from winter’s stillness to the renewal of spring, take a moment to reflect—what are you hoping to bring into your life? A specific intention, or simply a greater sense of balance and clarity? According to Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras 4.13-4.14, everything in our world exists in different states of change, shaped by perception and energy. What if transformation isn’t about forcing something new, but about seeing through illusion, shedding what no longer serves you, and making space for what is already waiting to emerge? Join us in the studio as we explore these timeless teachings and step into spring with fresh awareness.

All the best,
Amy

Pose of the Month

Garudasana: Eagle Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Garudasana: Eagle Pose.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!

Sutra of the Month

 
 

Yoga Sutra 4.13-4.14 explores the nature of reality and the ever-changing forms of existence. Sutra 4.13 explains that all objects—both tangible and intangible—exist in potential, active, or subtle states, influenced by the three gunas (sattva, rajas, and tamas). This highlights that everything we perceive is a manifestation of these fundamental energies. Sutra 4.14 states that an object’s essence remains unchanged, but its appearance and experience shift based on the observer’s perception and the interplay of the gunas. Together, these sutras remind us that while the external world is constantly in flux, the deeper essence of things—and of ourselves—remains steady. Understanding this allows us to cultivate a sense of detachment and clarity, recognizing that our experiences are shaped by perception rather than absolute truth.

Oil of the Month

Our March OOTM is:

Sweet Orange Oil

 
 

“One of the brightest citrus oils of the bunch, Organic Sweet Orange is a great essential oil that holds even greater benefits. Its refreshing, juicy aroma can help cheer up any environment and boast any stale-smelling room. It can help ease nervous tension, uplift feelings of sadness and can also support normal functioning of your immune system. Dilute Organic Sweet Orange into a carrier oil and apply it to your skin to help brighten and reduce dullness.” -Plant Therapy

Enjoy 20% off your purchase of Sweet Orange essential oil all month at the studio.

Connection

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Happy February! Take a moment to pause and place your hand over your heart. Feel the rhythm of connection—the connection to yourself, to those around you, and to the world beyond. Each inhale is an opportunity to draw in love and compassion; each exhale is a chance to release barriers that keep you feeling stuck. Can you carry this awareness into your daily life? This month, let’s celebrate the ties that unite us, whether it’s connecting with your breath, your community, or the present moment. You’re creating space for something beautiful to bloom, so keep tending to your roots with love and care.

All the best,
Amy

Sutra of the Month

 
 

Yoga Sutra 1.33 offers a practical guide for cultivating inner peace and mental clarity through our interactions with others. It advises adopting four attitudes: friendliness toward those who are happy, compassion for those who are suffering, joy for the virtuous, and equanimity toward those who behave in harmful or troubling ways. By embracing these qualities, we train the mind to stay calm and balanced, even in challenging situations. This sutra reminds us that our inner peace is deeply influenced by our responses to others and encourages us to approach life with an open heart and a steady mind. It’s a timeless teaching on how to maintain harmony within while fostering connection and understanding in the world around us.

Oil of the Month

Our February OOTM is:

Rose Absolute Oil

 
 

“Highly prized for its rich floral scent, Rose Absolute is also known for its calming properties, helping to soothe emotions and bring calm in the midst of fresh grief. It can promote relaxation before sleep when diffused or applied topically diluted in a carrier oil.

It is extremely useful in skin rejuvenation, as Rose oil counteracts the visible signs of aging, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and helping smooth skin. Rose Absolute is also reputed to help with the “power surges” suffered by many women going through the normal change of life.” -Plant Therapy

Enjoy 20% off your purchase of Rose Absolute essential oil all month at the studio.

Yin Yoga

 
 

Friday, February 21st
7:00-8:15pm
with Martha Flanagan

Are you moving too fast?
Doing too many things at one time?
Too much "mind chatter" or just want to slow down?
Yin yoga can provide an antidote for this.

This class will guide you through a series of poses that are primarily done sitting and lying down. The poses are held for 2-5 minutes at a time to allow connective tissues (fascia, ligaments) to soften, lengthen and lubricate. A yin yoga practice compliments a yang practice and allows for a more balanced approach to life.

Discipline

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Happy 2025! Thanks so much for continuing to practice with us and support the studio. Can you believe we’ll be finishing our 9th year of operation this June? Although this past year has taken me away from the day-to-day with all of you, please know you’re in my daily thoughts and always in my heart! I miss seeing you on the mat, but each time I drop into the studio I can feel the positive energy you pour into your practice and this community of special, spectacular students and instructors.

January is a time of new beginnings, making it the perfect month to explore discipline. Discipline isn’t about harsh rules or perfection—it’s about showing up with intention, even when motivation fades. In yoga, discipline is considered a key practice for inner transformation, encouraging us to commit to what nurtures our well-being. Whether it’s rolling out your mat, prioritizing mindful habits, or embracing personal growth, discipline helps us align our actions with our highest goals. As the new year unfolds, consider how small, consistent efforts can spark meaningful change in your life.

All the best,
Amy

Pose of the Month

Makara Adho Mukha Svanasana: Dolphin Pose

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Makara Adho Mukha Svanasana: Dolphin Pose.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!

Sutra of the Month

 
 

In Yoga Sutra 1.21, Patanjali emphasizes the power of dedication and sincere effort in one’s spiritual journey. Progress in yoga accelerates when a practitioner approaches their practice with deep commitment and a burning desire for transformation. The stronger the intention and focus, the sooner spiritual realization can be attained. This sutra highlights that success is not dependent on external circumstances but on the practitioner’s inner drive and devotion.

Expanding on this, Sutra 1.22, acknowledges that while all sincere efforts yield results, the speed and depth of progress depend on the intensity of practice. Patanjali identifies three levels of effort: mṛdu (mild), madhya (moderate), and adhimātra (intense). Those with mild commitment may progress slowly, while moderate practitioners experience steadier advancement. Those practicing with intense dedication and unwavering focus achieve the most profound results.

Together, these sutras remind us that spiritual growth is directly influenced by our level of commitment and the consistency of our practice.

Oil of the Month

Our January OOTM is:

Peppermint Oil

 
 

“Nothing says fresh quite like Peppermint. Its minty, cooling aroma holds stimulating benefits that can help enhance alertness and stamina. Whenever you’re feeling sluggish, reach for Peppermint for a midday boost of energy. Due to its menthol properties, it can induce a cooling sensation when applied to the skin. When experiencing head or neck tension, dilute Peppermint to a carrier oil for a soothing massage. When you’re feeling nauseous or need support for respiratory health, it can be helpful to take in its scent through a personal inhaler.” -Plant Therapy

Enjoy 20% off your purchase of Peppermint essential oil all month at the studio.

Rest

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Happy December! Go EASY on yourself. I hope you can continue to take some time out of your busy holiday/end-of-year schedule for a little bit of rest, it’s our theme of the month! As an added incentive, this month in my classes we’ll be taking extended savasana. Don’t worry, if savasana is the hardest posture for you, We’ll be guiding you through some relaxation techniques so your busy mind has something non-stressful to chew on.

Consider what you might need to receive from your practice this time of year. It’s ok to let your practice grow, or slow, or change WITH you. That’s what will help sustain us, and keep us coming back. Take some time to reflect on what you’ve accomplished this year on your mat - thank yourself for each and every conscious breath! And, if the people you love the most in this world are annoying you through the holidays - leave your house, skip down to the studio for an hour, and come back to your breath. Nothing makes me happier than to see you get your break for the day within our 4 walls. Thanks for filling our space with your smiling face these past 12 months. Cheers to a happy, healthy 2025!

All the best,
Amy

Pose of the Month

Viparita Karani: Legs Up the Wall

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Viparita Karani: Legs Up the Wall.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!

Sutra of the Month

 
 

Sutra 2.5 from the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali explains that ignorance (avidya) is the root cause of all suffering. It arises when we mistake the impermanent for the permanent, the impure for the pure, the painful for the pleasurable, and the non-self for the true self.

In essence, avidya clouds our perception, keeping us disconnected from our true nature. Through consistent yoga practice, self-awareness, and mindfulness, we can dispel ignorance, revealing clarity, truth, and inner peace.

Oil of the Month

Our December OOTM is:

Douglas Fir Oil

 
 

“Like taking a brisk stroll through a beautiful pine forest, Douglas Fir Essential Oil emits a strong, sweet, clean, piney-fresh scent with citrusy notes. This oil can be stimulating to the senses yet comforting, and diffusing this lovely oil gives you the refreshing scent reminiscent of a wintery forest day. When experiencing feelings of sadness, Douglas Fir can help uplift such emotions. Also great for clear respiration, Douglas Fir also helps promote healthy breathing.” -Plant Therapy

Enjoy 20% off your purchase of Douglas Fir essential oil all month at the studio.

Consider deepening your personal practice by engaging yoga as a way of life.  Every second Sunday from 5-7pm, we gather to create sacred community by grounding in our breath, gently moving our bodies, settling into our hearts, and listening for our inner knowing.  This experience of mindful inquiry encourages you to show up for yourself and one another as we explore the spiritual in every day life.  Your level of participation is up to you as we honor the Light and Love within and among us all.

Registration is required to attend.

November 2024 at Oyster Bay Yoga

Gratitude

 
 

Dear Yogis,

Happy November. This month our sutra of the month is 2.33, where Patanjali offers us the tool of pratipaksha bhavanam. In my opinion, one of the most practical suggestions in all of the yoga sutras. “When disturbed by negative thoughts, opposite [positive] ones should be thought of.” Satchidananda speaks about not only changing your thoughts, but changing your environment as being particularly effective in releasing disturbed thinking patterns. Try physically moving to a different location, and feel the shift in your inner environment (get to the studio, go for a walk, go to the beach). Or maybe, switch up who you’re surrounded by and feel the influence of those people (phone a friend, get a date on the calendar with people you love to be around and let their energy infect you in the best way possible. What does this have to do with gratitude? Gratitude takes practice, but when we’re doing it right, it creates strong emotion within us. I encourage you to write down what you’re grateful for, but take it one step further, and let the emotion of gratitude burn away negative thoughts that cause us stress. This month, come see us at the studio, it’s still the best way I know to practice pratipaksha bhavanam and cultivate peaceful thoughts.

All the best,
Amy

Pose of the Month

Virabhadrasana II: Warrior II

 
 

This month at the studio we breakdown
Virabhadrasana II: Warrior II.
Learn how best to practice this pose in any class all month long!

Sutra of the Month

 
 

Sutra 2.33 from Patanjali's Yoga Sutras introduces the concept of Pratipaksha Bhavana, which is the practice of cultivating opposite thoughts when negative or harmful thoughts arise. This sutra encourages replacing emotions like anger, jealousy, or greed with positive, uplifting qualities such as love, compassion, and generosity. By consciously choosing opposing thoughts, we can neutralize negativity and create a more balanced, peaceful state of mind. This practice is essential for personal growth and aligning with the principles of yoga.

Oil of the Month

Our November OOTM is:

Germ Fighter Oil

 
 

“It is so important to keep your body on alert against attacks on your immune system. Germ Fighter was made with you in mind because when you are down you need something to help you recover fast. Germ Fighter is jam-packed with everything you need to fight off outside threats. Germ Fighter is a Plant Therapy favorite and for good reason; it does its job and will continue to support a healthy immune system by helping your body get back to its natural state from the seasonal threats that have you down.
