My mind gets scattered, all kinds of emotions come up and catch me by surprise. I get overwelmed, and sometimes it feels as if it's all out of my control. Even with all the inner work I do...
I'm happy, I'm sad, I'm angry, I'm overflowing with joy, I'm content, I'm fulfilled, I'm shy, I'm ecstatic, I judge, I love, I feel lack, I'm bored, I'm empowered, I'm uncomfortable, I'm inspired, I'm afraid, I'm centered, I'm grounded, I'm selfish, I'm hurt, I fantasize, I worry, I remember, I'm confused, I see clearly, I'm whole, I'm shadow, I'm light, I'm lost, I long for, I feel guilt, I'm shameful, I'm proud, I accept, I embrace, I swim in this sea and become one with it, I dance, I laugh, I cry, I sing, I pray...
I'm human!
I watch myself right in the middle of this everchanging dance. I watch all of it you know?
I'm also unchanging... I'm the everchanging me inside the unchanging me! Aren't we all? Or you can also say I'm the unchanging me inside the everchanging me... We are not separate and we will never be! The little self and the big self are one.
You will forget about me and that's ok. Just open this door again my dear, and walk into me... drink this breath and "wash yourself of yourself". Again and again!
I love you!

JOAO PAULO PEREIRA

Age:26

Yoga Style: Swasthya Yoga. It's also called the ancient yoga and embraces mudra, puja, mantra, pranayama, kriya, yoganidra, and dhyana, among other techniques.

He also heads quality-of-life-in-the-workplace programs.

Yoga offers me: Self-discovery, well-being and the possibility of making the world a better place to live in.

Other interests: Joao is the lead singer of Samadhi Roots, a band in which he blends asana performances with the sacred and powerful melodies of hindu mantras, rock n' roll, reggae and brazilian rhythms. He is also completing his degree in film making and has much interest in sharing his work with others cultures.
