Cautions & Suggestions:

Chinese herbalists warn that prolonged consumption of mustard greens can heat the internal region too much. Therefore, mustard greens are not suggested for those who suffer from eye diseases, hemorrhoids, constipation and/or stools containing blood. All of these symptoms can indicate that your body is already too hot (too much yang energy) and when you consume mustard greens, you will be adding even more heat (yang) energy to the body.

On the flip side, due to the yang (hot) energy that mustard greens provide along with its pungent taste, symptoms such congestion can be relieved because the yang energy and pungent taste help to promote circulation and to relieve congestion.

Hatha Yoga

Have you been wanting to do hatha yoga (stretching) but have found it either too difficult or you are not that flexible? If yes, and even if no, watch Jesse do some pure hatha yoga routines.

Unlike flow yoga, each pose in pure or traditional hatha yoga is held for a few minutes. While holding the pose, you focus the mind on the stretch. When you focus the mind, that's when you find silence.

Jesse is not flexible — never has been and probably never will be flexible like others. But it doesn't matter. In pure hatha yoga, how flexible you are makes no difference. It's all about loving the pose and focussing the mind on the stretch.

If you want to learn pure hatha yoga, now you can by following Jesse on a series of hatha yoga routines.
