“I have experienced numerous Ragda McAfee’s yoga sessions and found them to be meditative in design and style so I was excited to see where her meditation session would take me,” was my thought when I was invited to an Earth Day-Full Moon Evening Retreat featuring Ayurveda, yoga, and Ragda’s meditation gathering. I participated in the retreat and enjoyed the experience so I am taking this opportunity to introduce you to Ragda!
This lady of the bones and muscles and the Spirit that controls them is one of those you meet in life with a lot of consonants after her name but makes no difference as she meets you where you are at in your life experience. Officially she is Ragda McAfee, MPT, RYT; Licensed Master of Physical Therapy; Registered Yoga Teacher; Spirit Group Leader and Facilitator and Master Reiki Practitioner. Unofficially, if you are fortunate to meet her, she instantly is your friend and is there to help you along on your life’s journey in whatever way is needed.
For me, in the world of yoga, I find it fascinating that she is, as a physical therapist, a trained and practicing expert of every bone and muscle that is found in our bodies. From that physical foundation she then builds a path to release our Spirits from that temporary structure for the hour of yoga in a way that creates a new mental place where we can choose to go to with the same freeing experience any time in between sessions. So having been directed to participate in the Earth Day-Full Moon Evening Retreat with progressive enlightening experiences from Ayurveda to yoga to meditation I knew the experience while called a retreat was in reality an advance forward into my life’s journey.
The “rest chakra,” re-assuming our self… finding the energy and power within… breathing in-and-out… letting go of the past… in a healthful way… prepared to meditate through restorative yoga.. being mindful… finding a place of no mind, a place of stillness… feeling the center of our inner peace… our inner joy.. being fully present… involving all the senses yet focusing on only one at this moment in time… listening to the waves… then another…seeing the blankness behind out eyelids… then another… smelling the lingering of Ayurvedic and Natural Remedies… then another… tasting nothing… then another… feeling the firmness and energy of the earthly structure beneath us… yet leaving our senses… leaving our bodies… leaving our minds… arriving at the Sixth Sense of Spirit… simply being present in our Senseless Spirit…
I came to my fullest meditative experience that evening. Free of this Earthly World when aligned with the energy of the Moon which was at its fullest expression too!
This is energy to be found in meditation, Ragda-style!
I am grateful to have experienced Ragda’s meditative session and, having been given wonderful gifts, to be able to follow up with sessions of my own to find the energy to supply my life journey of seeking inspiration.
