Black Swan Yoga Texas Feb 24th Austin Texas=Joy!!! Jen's Blog Manifestation Station February 26th, 2012 From Austin, With Love "A more apt title would be: To Austin, With Love. I led my first workshop in Austin this past Saturday."-Jen |
Jennifer, I was in your workshop yesterday at Black Swan, and I had to jet off after class...and miss the chocolate and wine, drat! I just wanted to say thank you for bringing a condensed version of your manifestation workshop to Austin. Talk about the universe handing you things when you need them... I know you probably receive all kinds of feedback. You are so active (and interactive!) with your social media...despite your very obvious explosion onto the yoga scene, you still seem very accessible. So I thought I would share an abbreviated summary of my experience with yesterday's class. The workshop hit home for me on two levels. 1. Exactly one week ago, I had the biggest fight with my mother I have ever had in my life. I have never seen her so angry. Since then, I have been unable to sleep, downright distracted through the day, and even nightly sweaty classes at BSY couldn't provide the calmness I usually left with. Yesterday, the "hallelujah vinyasa" finally got me to focus and calm down. Then, the forgiveness of someone, and of ourselves, obviously struck a chord. 2. For a long time, I have been too good at doing very little. That "little" is impressive enough that no one else raises an eyebrow, and it even draws praise, fairly often. But I am capable of so much more. I came to your workshop because I want to manifest discipline and dedication in my life again. In my letter to my 16 year old self, I asked her not to lose heart, the tenacity that, to be honest, defined me at that age. When I was 16, I knew with absolute certainty that I was capable of anything. I was scared of nothing. And I was, academically, athletically, and mentally, a "whole-hearter". Somewhere along the way I lost that. I don't know how, or why. When did I become so afraid of failure? When did I forget what it's like to be the best at something, or at least the very best than I can be? I want it back. And getting back to that is going to require discipline and dedication. In thanking the universe in advance for the things coming my way, I realized that they really ARE on their way. The discipline and dedication I need to cultivate to bring to law school and the rest of my life has already begun with my increased dedication and discipline with yoga. I'm already on my way. Thank you for helping me realize it. All my best, C Austin, Texas |

To Jen- "My manifestation last weekend was happiness, giving not receiving. A friend passed away 3days ago and I heard from her family that the time we spent together meant so much to her...a big thank you to opening my eyes to how my actions towards others makes more of a difference than I can know." June 2011 "Thank you so much for sharing this with me."- Jennifer |
Blown away by Jennifer Pastiloff Manifestation Yoga Workshop last night. It's so, so, so, so much more than yoga...It's a completely unique, brilliant and enlivening combination of: YOGA, THERAPY, JOURNALING, KARAOKE & DANCE PARTY. I recommend she change the name to: Jennifer Pastiloff's YO-THE-JO-KA-DA-PA Experience! You'll sweat, laugh and cry. Your body may crave water...Your soul will feel replenished. I highly highly recommend her classes, workshops & retreats! Thank you Jennifer! Frank Gjata Owner of Conscious Ink |
"Jennifer often gives classes with themes of Gratitude and me to the Yoga Retreat in Tuscany. Encouraging me, inspiring me, as a beginner, to try those poses (and yes, Jen, I laughed when I fell!). Sun salutations in sunny Italy, yoga every day, great food and wine, watching the sun set in the Tuscan hills and touring medieval towns..it was a great experience. And I owe it to you Jen!" Luv, LuAnne |
