My yoga teacher, Jyoti Chrystal, left us on Saturday, after a noble fight with an aggressive cancer.  As she did every day of her life, Jyoti taught us about how to live grounded in our being – cancer or no cancer.    I first met Jyoti more than a decade ago when a friend brought me to her studio.  I was well into my forties when I found that my back was suddenly starting to spasm.  I needed help.  That yoga class was the beginning of what is now a solid ten-year practice.  Jyoti was the founder of Starseed Yoga, the crown jewel of the yoga community here in Montclair, New Jersey.  After a couple of years taking classes there, I decided to enroll in their teacher training program.  I wanted to learn as much as I could from this extraordinary woman.   I’m so glad to have had that opportunity – so grateful to have JyotiMa infuse my yoga practice with her grace and spirit.  One of the things I loved about Jyoti was the tremendous energy she brought to expanding yoga in our community.  She wasn’t just teaching asanas; she was teaching a way of being; a way of life.   So many of us benefitted from the enormous commitment she made to let the spirit of yoga flow through her to us.  Namaste, Jyoti.  The light in me honors the light in you.  Always.
