New Signature Card for Yoga Jewelry!



I Just finished the new jewelry signature card design. This three inch square card will go with each piece of my uniquely handmade jewelry

The glossy heavy weight card stock is a perfect medium for the colorful Hummingbird Mandala design that I utilized as the "background".

I was inspired to re-design the card due to the ExCiting fact that I will have my Yoga inspired jewelry featured in the New La Jolla Yoga Center!

This is where I will also be teaching my Vinyasa Flow yoga class twice a week. The class will be Monday and Thursday at noon.

I utilized the Hummingbird Mandala that I had designed in 2007. see blog post


I had come up with this design for a mandala, using an adorable baby Hummingbird photograph from my etsy shop......


Wondering what is a Mandala?
any of various geometric designs (usually circular) symbolizing the universe; used chiefly in Hinduism and Buddhism as an aid to meditation 

go visit these Etsy shops to view some amazing Mandalas

My bio for the new La Jolla Yoga Center....

Go Visit La Jolla Yoga Center webpage for more info



Tah Groen has been teaching for private and corporate clients in San Diego for over 13 years. Within that time she has developed a nurturing hands on approach to teaching, a comfortable style, rich with verbal cues regarding alignment of body, mind and spirit.

Her Vinyasa flow class is a perfect place for the beginner or advanced student. With Tah's emphasis on the details of Asana, using body awareness, breath flow, a soft nurturing and compassionate tone, yoga becomes an essential element to lighten and gladden your spirit. Her attention is on the breath as the core mechanics to a transformative yoga practice. She states:

"The inhale breath, vital to allowing the life force (Prana) in, and the exhale breath(Apana), both open doorways to releasing resistance. The inhale and exhale of breath are instrumental in maintaining a balance within the body. They allow a softening, and establish a foundation for the letting go of old, outdated patterns that no longer serve the higher self. Through intimate exploration of each pose as it transitions into the next, we find that each inhale and exhale reveals our true self hidden behind stagnant layers of resistance."


Tah continues to explore and deepen her practice both on a physical and spiritual level. Delving deeply into the essential question "Who am I?", she started a blog entitled A Surrender into Ascension. Her personal revelations and discoveries into the alter Ego and the Eternal "I" in I am.

In her quest for knowledge Tah has come across a fairly new and profound system of self discovery based on your birth data called Human Design. By Calculating the time and place of birth Human Design reveals a unique two dimensional body graph in the form of a mandala.


Your Human Design chart will reveal the secrets hidden within your Auric field. If you are interested in Human Design please contact Tah.

Some of the teachers who have influenced Tah
Erick Shiffman, Tias Little, Roger Cole, Pattabhi Jois, Sharon Gannon, David Life, Bikram, Paul Grilley, Gerhard Gessner

An active artist her whole life Tah now expresses her creative talents with photography and jewelry design. You can find her work online where she has two Etsy shops. One for Yoga Inspired jewelry and the other for her photography

Focus Wheel Process

This process is profound and powerful! It will shift energy easily and quickly! Give it a try. Watch for the hot trigger spots in the day that spit you out of the Vortex ( that's to say if you have been hanging out in it). Then use that subject as your next Focus Wheel. Highly effective tool to raise vibration.

"Focus Wheel, a process that has been designed specifically to help you release resistance and focus you into your Vortex. And,in fact, the process itself mimics a swirling, attracting Vortex, which gathers momentum as it swirls." ... from The Vortex by Ester and Jerry Hicks... teachings of Abraham

“The vortex is where all cooperative components are being summoned…the vortex is where you rendezvous with all cooperative components.” Abraham

Cosmic Sound of Ohm




Yoga as an industry has exploded to include everything that can be marketed as useful to the yoga student from the "yoga toes and paws" to the ancient sanskrit symbol AUM om.

I am Including myself within this realm of creating yoga products, specifically the inspiration to create the symbol Om into jewelry.

This ancient sacred symbol defines the essence of all there is. It is the vibrational sound that permeates all of the universe know and unknown. In the words of Self Realization Fellowship founder Paramahansa Yogananda " Om is the bridge between human consciousness and Cosmic consciousness." He goes on to say that we are a three fold radio (body, mind and soul) and through yoga meditation we are able to actually hear with our dominate ear- usually the right- the actual sounds of the universe. As one practices yoga and meditation the body,mind and soul becomes attuned to this divine frequency. The continuous practice of listening for the "astral sounds of the cerebrospinal centers, or the om sound.....you will behold the cosmic ocean of God's consciousness and the wave of your consciousness existing together as one."

In B.K.S. Iyengar book Light on Yoga he states The latin word Omne and the Sanskrit word Aum are similar in root meaning taken as omniscience, omnipresence and omnipotence as is the word pranava, which is another word for AUM which can be translated as the best prayer or the best praise.

To tie in the Om symbolism concretely we can go many places to help clarify the significance;

~ My favorite it the symbolic representation of the 3 dimensions past, present and future and then the newly discovered 4th dimension; time. The a=past u=present m=future and the three parts as a whole symbolizing the place beyond time and space which is in the NOW.

~Mother,Father and Guru and fourth the knower of Self

~Holy Ghost, Christ Consciousness and the Cosmic Consciousness

~asana,pranayama,pratyahara and the final samadhi

~the creator,the maintainer,the destroyer and the whole the "One that ever remains unchanged"

~body,mind,spirit into Oneness

"The cosmic sound can be caught only when the heart radio, of the deeply meditating devotee is tuned to Om's rate of vibration." SRF

Vinyasa Flow Yoga Workshop



Saturday
October 3rd
8:30am to 10:30am

Where: Bergamot Spa
775 Vulcan
Encinitas, Ca. 92024

With: Tah Groen
Ever wondered where the breath should naturally flow to when practicing your Vinyasa flow yoga?
Ever wondered how to connect more deeply to the breath and delve more intimately into your yoga practice?

In this workshop we will learn to recognize the moments that naturally occur between poses as important transitory conduits for the next awakening.
It is here where we begin to acknowledge the movement of body, mind and spirit toward expansion by releasing resistance and moving into alignment.

This allows your yoga body to ascend to new territories of awareness. The practice of Vinyasa flow yoga trains your physical vehicle into perfected focus until the art of breath becomes natural and profound.
The inhale breath, vital to allowing the life force (Prana) in, and the exhale breath(Apana), both open doorways to releasing resistance. The inhale and exhale of breath are instrumental in maintaining a balance within the body. They allow a softening, and establish a foundation for the letting go of old, outdated patterns that no longer serve the higher self.

Through intimate exploration of each pose as it transitions into the next, we find that each inhale and exhale reveals our true self hidden behind stagnant layers of resistance.

This special workshop is perfect for the beginning Vinyasa flow student, as it incorporates an essential introduction to the basic mechanics of breath that exist within the salute to the sun and beyond.

For the advanced Vinyasa student, this workshop will help to integrate skillful timing and rhythm to the flow sequence. By moving Asana into the core, and allowing the breath to be the guide and teacher that it should always be, you will improve your yoga practice immeasurably.

We honor breath as the gift given to the Vinyasa practice. Come understand the powerful connection the Prana life force has to the body, mind and spirit, and the vital role of Apana as the means to releasing resistance, and change your life.

This is a beautiful Spa space, a mini Bali Oasis in the heart of Encinitas!

An intimate venue limited to fourteen students.
