Workout of the week: Shambhava yoga
Daily Camera staff
"We had a reporter try a yoga class this weekend and gave us a glowing spot in the Daily Camera! Enjoy!"
by Marissa Malouff For the Daily Camera
...What is the Work Out: Shoshoni practices and teaches Shambhava yoga, which places importance on the spirituality of yoga as well as the positions and postures. Shoshoni prides itself in using yoga to prepare the body and the mind for meditation. It was easy to get myself in the yoga state of mind at Shoshoni because of its beautiful mountain surroundings...
What's Different: Other than the beautiful scenery that accompanies the Nederland based retreat, the attitude of the instructor was something truly different about the lesson. It was clear that the classes are based on meditation, as opposed to losing weight, or being trendy...
What I loved: Doing something spiritual and relaxing in a beautiful setting made the physical work feel secondary. I especially liked the shava sana at the end of the class. The room, as well as my mind, was silenced. The sounds of wind blowing in the trees and light drizzle on the roof made this part of the experience even more relaxing...

Karma 101 - Daily Camera
By Cindy Sutter
Saturday, October 28, 2006
What then is karma, which Hindus sometime calls the universal law of cause and effect?
Swami Kripananda of the Shoshoni Yoga Retreat in Nederland says karma is the interweaving of all our deeds and thoughts in this life and in previous lives.
"The most common misunderstanding is that it's fate ... that because I run into somebody's car, I'm going to get that back," says Swami Kripananda of the Shoshoni Yoga Retreat in Nederland. But, she says, karma is way too complicated for that even to be possible. In other words, what goes around doesn't come around, at least not in a way that we are capable of understanding.
"It really has to do with the effect on us of all our actions and thoughts. We store these impressions up in our lives, everything we've done or thought or said," she says.
