This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 26, 2026, a morning when the mat turned into a game controller and every breath revealed the secret backstage of the great cosmic game.

It is eight o’clock. Light slides softly across the mats. A cup of homemade chai steams beside you, crowned with a silky foam of coconut and hazelnut milk. Outside, the world keeps racing on. In here, something comes to a stop. 🌅

What if, this morning, everything you thought was a problem was really the secret signature of how alive you are? What if your difficulties were scattered clues in a game far vaster than you ever imagined? 🦋

The secret gameplay of your existence

There is an English word that French still struggles to translate: gameplay. What makes a game worth playing. What keeps you coming back, what you love, what you happily lose yourself in. Alexandre Anatman made it the common thread of this session — and he gently invites you to turn the question back on yourself.

Where is your gameplay? Where is the thing that makes you come alive, that makes you love being alive? The answer, as so often, isn’t where we look for it. It hides precisely where we don’t want to look: in the trials, in the difficulties, in those challenges that make the gears grind. ✨

Because did you know that the dead no longer have any problems? Tossed out with a smile, this sentence turns the obvious inside out like a glove. Having difficulties is proof that you are alive. And what if gratitude began exactly there?

The morning teaching

This morning’s elixir has an English name — because French, Alexandre says with a smile, lags behind on these things. That word is gameplay. What makes the game worth playing. What makes you truly love being alive. ✨

The question is dizzying in its simplicity: where is your gameplay? What truly fires you up in this life? Not what pleases you, not what you quite like — but what makes you vibrate at an astronomical level.

Alexandre suggests an exercise: remember your best moments in this life. Your most beautiful days. The times you were in ecstasy, in euphoria. What was it? Who were you with? In what setting? If you are younger and haven’t lived much yet, let intuition come — parallel lives, those memories that rise to the surface. 🌿

Then comes the reversal. The real one. The kind that brings certainties to tears.

“If you already had everything you wanted in every area of life, honestly, you’d be so bored there would be no game left.”

The gameplay isn’t in arriving. It is in the journey. It is in the delight of resolving difficulties. In the joy of finding within yourself the resources to navigate each trial. 💖

And Alexandre takes the idea right down to its root: what if creativity were born precisely from difficulties? What if you had to dive to the very depths of yourself to solve what seems unsolvable? What if that, exactly that, were the point of the game?

With humor, he mentions “the ragtag army of programs” — that inner voice that refuses: “No, I don’t want problems, I don’t want difficulties.” But that is a misunderstanding of the gameplay. It is failing to see that the game is the solving.

“Gratitude for having problems. Gratitude for being alive. Did you know that the dead no longer have any problems?”

The final realization: you are inside the video game where nobody knows they’re in a video game. It is the great cosmic joke. Someone really had to come up with that one. Step into a game, forget everything, and see how you react. 🦋

The Truman Show, The Matrix, Cloud Atlas, Free Guy, Ready Player One — a few films have come close. But the direct experience is lived here, on this mat, with this cup of chai. And the wonderful advantage of realizing you’re in a video game is that you can customize it. Tailor it to yourself. Why keep playing someone else’s game? 🌟

Then the final mantra descends, as obvious as can be: “I choose my game.” I choose my game. The game of the I and the I of the game. 🙏

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

The session opens with an individual leap, a long sound that travels through the chest. Then comes the first mantra, the phrase that sets the whole scene: “I surrender to my inner yogi, I surrender.” 🕊️

The hands rise, rise, rise. The calves tighten, then the thighs, the glutes, the abs. The body becomes stiff as a board, suspended by the toes, suspended by the invisible hands of the sky. And already, tears come. Already, something overflows.

Alexandre names it right away: “I welcome all emotions, I welcome.” Nothing to push away. Laughter and tears come from the same source. It is the level above — being, life, the soul, consciousness — that laughs or weeps through you. 💫

Next comes the blindfold. Visual reality is removed. The thumbs hook together, the spine arches back, then bends forward. The chest meets the thighs, the hands rise. And with each stretch, this phrase returns like a caress: “I surrender to my inner yogi.” 🌿

Then the right side stretches, long and slow. The left hand comes to massage the back of the neck, the skull. “The head presses quite firmly — the skull isn’t fragile at all,” Alexandre reassures. Tension drains from the neck. A powerful mantra then arrives: “I release with love everything that keeps me from being here and now in my bodily sensations.”

“Our yoga is going to heighten sensations. Sensitivity — it’s going to create hyperesthesia, all your senses will be amplified, and that’s normal.”

A luminous realization emerges: the earlier you go to sleep, the more you feel the yoga, and the more you create a rhythm, a structure in your life. Yoga is not an isolated exercise — it is an invisible architecture that holds everything else upright. 🌱

The Five Tibetans arrive with their energetic healing for the lower back. Then the pelvis draws circles, slow and wide, like a forgotten ritual. Alexandre points out: “When you do it every day, it’s easy, it’s fluid, you’re balanced all day long.”

Then the squat shows up, preparation for the frog and training for skiing this winter. Laughter ripples through the room. “I release with love everything in me that doesn’t like physical effort.” Then comes the frog itself, three minutes of breath of fire. Options: push-ups, half lotus, or keep going with the frog. Everyone adapts; everyone creates their own practice. 🙏

Then comes the sacred moment of the strap. The right leg lifts, straight, perpendicular. The lower back embraces the floor — Alexandre insists on the word: “Feel the meaning of the word embrace.” Not even a trouser seam’s width remains between the vertebrae and the floor.

And there, a dizzying mantra settles in: “I link delight and stretching.” Then: “I allow myself to feel good, I allow myself.” 💖 The heart opens. The gratitude of starting the day in a state of ecstasy, of euphoria, spreads like a fragrance.

“I start the day in a state of ecstasy, of euphoria, and then I’ll keep that state all day long.”

Alexandre then shares a major physiological realization: what you are experiencing is a cellular cocktail — oxytocin, serotonin, dopamine, endorphins. Every cell in your body laughs with you. Every cell holds that signature for twenty-four hours. Studies on laughter yoga confirm it. 🌟

The left leg takes over. Then comes a deep invitation: observe the nostrils. Are Ida and Pingala open? Sushumna too? This is the yogic science of pranayama surfacing, discreet and precise.

The arms stretch backward. And suddenly, a naked truth: “I let go so much that I may stop breathing for a while, and that’s okay.” Consciousness observes the body. Each exhale becomes a rehearsal of the last breath, each inhale a celebration of the first. 🕊️

“Feel the sacredness of this last breath. The end of a cycle.”

Then the seated posture. The cup of chai arrives. The elixir ritual unfolds. Alexandre shares a realization that comes from far back: as early as 2015, he had created a morning ritual with green tea to write the book Who Are You?. Structure, a beautiful habit, the sacredness of the morning — it is a thread running through the years. 🌅

Then the mantra drops in, self-evident: “Gratitude for creating my practice.” Not copying, not imitating — drawing inspiration, adapting, personalizing. Everyone is different. Everyone has different needs.

Then comes the realization of the non-localized. You can do this practice at any hour of the day or night. As a replay. At five in the morning or at ten. It makes absolutely no difference. Why? Because what you are is not localized. ✨

“Scientists keep trying to find identity in the brain — they can search for a long time. It is consciousness that creates the illusion of location.”

Mindful walking arrives, a gift to Alexandre from François after his ten years with Thich Nhat Hanh. The blindfold goes back over the eyes. You spin around. You lose your bearings — “the idea is to no longer know, since we are non-localized.” And then: “It walks. It walks all by itself.” 🦋

All consciousness in the feet, in the sensations. The body moves without a director, without a captain. It meets others, shares hugs blindfolded, in the non-localized. Then comes the magical moment: the blindfold comes off, the eyes open, and it keeps walking all by itself.

The final realization then settles in, quiet and immense: this way of functioning — as an observer, a channel that lets things happen from bodily sensations — can be kept all day long. It is no longer the unconscious programs calling the shots. It is the flow of life. 💫

“Practice is life. At first, I do an hour or two of yoga in the morning. In the end, yoga is the whole day.”

That is this morning’s quantum leap: the session doesn’t end when you roll up your mat. It infuses. It carries on. It becomes you. 🙏

If you already had everything you wanted in every area of life, honestly, you’d be so bored there would be no game left.

I have problems, therefore I exist. I have a life, therefore I have problems — oh, wonderful.

Practice is life. At first I do an hour or two of yoga in the morning; in the end, yoga is the whole day.

Voices from the We

Morning greetings 🌅

The tribe gathered with the simple, luminous words that open every session:

• “hi there, tribe, hugs and kisses” — Shakti Anne
• “hello to you all” — francis
• “Hello everyone” — Valérie
• “Good morning, everybody” — Cécile

Shared gratitude 💖

At the end of the session, the same word came back again and again, voiced by several people — like a silent choir:

“gratitude I love you” — Shakti Anne

• “grattitude” — francis
• “Gratitude” — Valérie
• “have a lovely day” — Shakti Anne
• “have a lovely day” — Rafaël

These messages, understated yet full, are a reminder that the Anatman We is also woven from short words, between two breaths. 🙏

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : Et si la vie était un jeu vidéo dont vous étiez le créateur ?

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 25, 2026, a morning when the veil lifted on one of the most luminous revelations of this new season: what if your body were the controller of the great cosmic video game?

Some mornings, a single image changes everything. ✨ That Thursday, at dawn in Saint-Exempt, one very simple sentence struck consciousness head-on: “my game controller, my interface for playing, is quite simply my physical body”. And suddenly, everything lit up.

Have you ever wondered why life sometimes seems not to hear you? Why your most heartfelt desires remain on hold, like messages that never get read? 🕊️ This morning, the answer arrived with an overwhelming gentleness.

The technical documentation, found at last

Imagine for a moment. You have stepped into a life-size video game, a cosmic MMORPG where millions of other players move alongside you. 🎮 But nobody handed you the manual. Nobody told you how the controller works. So you have groped your way forward for years, maybe decades.

And then this morning, the documentation appears. It had been hidden. It hadn’t even been written yet. Through the elixir of the day, Alexandre Anatman reveals its first pages: “gratitude for finally having the game’s technical documentation”. 🌟

What you are about to read is not a report. It is an invitation to realize, in your very flesh, that you are the creator of your reality — and that it all begins with one sacred gesture: expression. 💫

The morning’s teaching

Some revelations arrive in silence, almost shyly, and yet change everything. This morning’s belongs to that rare lineage. 🌟

Alexandre puts it plainly: “I am in a great video game, life-size, an MMORPG — a multiplayer game, no less.” And in this game, you are an avatar. A person. But above all — and this is where the veil tears open — you have a user interface.

This interface is not a joystick, nor a mouse, nor a virtual reality headset. It is your physical body. 🎮 Your sacred game controller. The one that lets you move, walk, dance, travel through the game — and above all, above all, express yourself.

Expression, the secret language of the coders of reality

Here is the heart of the morning’s elixir. The universe, this cosmic video game, listens to your expression. It is designed for that. It observes your body, your voice, your sacred word, your gestures, your art — and it creates in return.

“The universe has no choice but to listen to you, to observe you; it is designed for that, to try to understand what you want.”

If you don’t express yourself, the universe waits. It can wait for hundreds of years. It tells itself: “She wants to stay all alone, he doesn’t want to do anything, so I’ll be patient.” 💫 Do you grasp the dizzying scope of this realization?

The silent castration

Then, with infinite tenderness, Alexandre names what holds so many of us back: the castration of expression in childhood. 🕊️ Good behavior imposed. Invisibility demanded. Silence made compulsory. And if this wound is not replayed in adolescence through a healthy, saving rebellion, it settles into adulthood as an invisible brake on any creation of reality.

Not expressing yourself means being an extra in your own film. It means being sidelined from the game. It means sending the universe a scrambled, indecipherable message.

TCR 3.0: intention, positioning, expression

Alexandre then shares the new Theory of the Creation of Reality, version 3.0. It unfolds as a sacred cycle:

First, intention. Then positioning. Then expression, which sends the signals to the coders of reality. Next comes the echo — what life sends back to you. Then observation: what is happening? Why? And finally, adjusting the positioning, the expression, sometimes even the intention. 🌿

“If I am extremely clear about who I am, where I’m going, why, what I want and what I don’t want, then the universe has no choice. The universe will offer you what you have vibrated, what you have expressed.”

Concrete and moving examples

Are you a therapist looking for clients? Express yourself. Make videos, write articles, give interviews, show who you are. Do you dream of a sweetheart? Express that desire. Sign up, send messages, meet people. ✨ Silent solitude creates nothing — living expression creates everything.

And what if you vibrate love for life? Life loves you back, and offers you more and more reasons to love it. It is a sacred circle, an ongoing dialogue between you and the universe. 💖

The ultimate question then becomes: “What am I expressing right now? Why is there a gap between what I would like and what I have?” It is precisely in that gap that all the solutions, all the resolutions are found.

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

The session opens in a light that is still hesitant. Alexandre switches on, adjusts, smiles. “Millions of details”, he murmurs. And already the practice begins: not with a posture, but with a mantra of surrender. 🙏

“I surrender to my inner yogi, to my inner masseur, I surrender.”

The feet find the ground. The hands massage the cheeks, the jaw. The face wakes up, sensation by sensation. 🌱 Then the arms rise, rise, rise — and the whole body contracts up onto tiptoe. Calves, buttocks, thighs, shoulders: everything gathers into a vibrant verticality.

Alexandre then reminds us of something essential: “I am telling the coders of reality, telling life, that I am alive, and that I am getting ready to spend a magnificent day filled with love, ecstasy and joy.” ✨ This contraction is not a mere muscular exercise. It is a signal sent to the universe.

Then comes the blindfold. Inwardness opens up. A first deep OM vibrates in the feet. The thumbs hook together behind the back, the spine stretches backward, then bends toward the floor. The torso folds onto the thighs. “I can feel yesterday’s squat right there”, Alexandre breathes with a soft laugh. 💫

The inner masseur at work

Statue of Liberty on the right, Statue of Liberty on the left. The free hand comes to massage the nape, the cervical vertebrae, the neck, the back of the head. And there — let the tears come. 🕊️ Alexandre insists: “I welcome all my emotions, I welcome.” The inner masseur goes to work. Tensions dissolve.

“It’s this letting go — the programs let go. And that’s what allows it to cry, to release, to relax, to clear the tensions.”

Wide circles are drawn with the chin. The neck stretches, the lower back too. Millimeter by millimeter. The breath comes in through the nose and out through the mouth. Then arms outstretched in a cross, a horizontal push, a vertical push — “I am vertical and horizontal, with the heart at the center”. 💖

Then comes the posture of surrender, arms back, head tipped back. And the mantras unfold:

“To life, I love you. To the video game that is life, I love you. Gratitude for playing.”

The hula hoop and the frog

The pelvis begins to turn. Wide circles, one way, then the other. The legs become roots. 🌿 Then the crouching frog, back straight, head straight — “a little frog, a tree frog if you know it”. Breath of fire through the nose, short and rhythmic. Optional: push-ups, or staying seated.

When the body returns to sitting, a wave of euphoria rises. The individual sound is set free — each person creates their own, a symbol of singular expression. It is no longer a collective OM: it is your voice, your timbre, your unique vibration.

The elixir of sacred expression

And here is the beating heart of the session. 🌟 The chai ceremony begins. Alexandre shares the morning’s revelation, and his voice grows more intimate:

“This morning, the realization that to play this video game, I created an interface that could also be called the user interface. It’s this physical body, this physical body that can move, walk, travel through the video game, dance, and above all express.”

Tears flow. 💞 Because behind this revelation lies an old wound: the castration of expression. The little boy who was made to keep quiet. The little girl who was meant to be invisible. The teenager who was prevented from rebelling. The adult who was formatted into silence.

Alexandre names it with infinite tenderness: “It is this castration of expression that ultimately castrates the person and the person’s life.” Then the mantra bursts forth, liberating:

“In love, I release the programs, memories, mechanisms, conditionings, implants, parasites, entities, invisible forces — everything that keeps me from expressing myself, from speaking, from using my sacred word to command matter.”

Then another mantra, so simple, so powerful: “I am practicing expressing myself, I am practicing.” And a third: “I allow myself to express myself, I allow myself.” 🌅

The plank and the meridian stretch

Back to the mat. The plank settles in, brief but intense. The pelvis rises, the glutes strengthen, the abs engage. Breath of fire. Then the buttocks return to the floor, the spine stretches forward, the hands catch hold of the feet. “I pull, I pull, I pull” — the backs of the legs sing.

Now on the back. The strap appears. The right leg rises perpendicular, the lower back pressed to the floor, the neck relaxed. It is the forearms that gently pull. And there, a sacred warmth appears in the lower back, like an invisible caress. 🤍

“There’s a kind of warmth right there, a softness in the lower back. Ah, gratitude, I love you, I love you.”

The left leg takes over. Then both knees come up toward the chest — and without anyone quite knowing why, laughter bursts out. 💫 The cosmic clown is in the room. Alexandre is surprised: “And yet there’s no stretch, I don’t really know why yet, but if it laughs, it laughs.”

The five toes and the meridians

Next comes a ritual of almost surgical precision: each toe is stretched, massaged, mobilized. The little toe first, then the second, third, fourth, fifth. Each time, an acupuncture meridian awakens. Sometimes the body jolts, often it laughs. 🦋

The grand finale: legs in the air, four toes stretched together, then the V for victory. “The yogi has arrived.” And the whole body vibrates with an inexplicable joy.

Conscious walking in reverse

Standing now. A few turns on the spot, like a light-footed dervish. Then the intention settles: to walk. Blindfolded at first. The body moves forward. Then — surprise — the body moves backward. Walking in reverse begins, and with it, a neurological revolution. 🌱

Alexandre shares that for the past two weeks, the body has preferred walking backward. Why? Because it is new. Because it creates an unknown delight. Because it reprograms the brain: I can learn anything, I can change anything, I can transform my life.

“I can change my bodily expression, everything that I am. So I can transform my life — so it’s possible.”

The eyes open, but it is still the feet that lead. Sight becomes a mere observation system. The body walks on its own. ✨ And hidden in this very simple experience is an immense revelation: you came to play in this video game, and you can use the controller in every direction.

My game controller, my interface for playing, is quite simply my physical body.

The universe will offer you what you have vibrated, what you have expressed.

It is this castration of expression that ultimately castrates the person and the person’s life.

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : Le joystick sacré du grand jeu vidéo

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of October 2, 2026, a morning when the breath met the word, and the word met the universe.

There are mornings when everything turns on a single sentence. A sentence that seems simple, almost too simple, and yet opens an inner door you never suspected was there. ✨ The morning of October 2 was one of those.

Alexandre Anatman invited us to realize something deeply moving: your reality is the consequence of your expression. Not a slogan. A mechanism. A technical manual for the video game we are all playing, often without knowing it. 🌱

And while the frog pose stretched on, while the pelvis traced tantric circles, while the bliss of stretching awakened vertebra by vertebra, a certainty rose like the dawn: the universe is listening to you. Constantly. In real time. 💫

What if the universe were in love with you?

It is a question we hardly dare to ask. Too big. Too beautiful. Too vulnerable. And yet Alexandre asked it this morning with disarming gentleness: “The universe loves you, not because it belongs to this or that religion, but because, technically, it cannot do otherwise.” 🕊️

For you are its creation. And the absolute welcomes all its creations, without exception, without condition, without judgment. Even the ones who doubt. Even the ones who weep. Even the ones who, on this rainy morning, finally let flow what had long been asking to pour out.

It is from this reconciliation of the absolute and the relative that the day’s teaching was born. And it is at this precise place — where the sacred word meets the heart — that we are about to enter. 💖

The morning teaching

There are mornings when the teaching arrives as something obvious, and yet turns everything upside down. On this October 2, Alexandre offered us a central piece of the Theory of the Creation of Reality (TCR): the mechanics of the word, of intention, and of echo-observation. ✨

The reconciliation elixir — absolute and relative — was the common thread. We held our warm cup of chai in our hands, and Alexandre invited us to inform that cup with our vibration, with our intentions. 🌿 For in Yoga Anatman, drinking is never trivial: it is an act of creation.

“I release in love everything that keeps me from welcoming within me, in my heart, two opposite positions.”

This elixir works at a very deep layer: the ability to hold two opposing truths together without breaking. Advaita lived, not thought. The absolute and the relative reconciled at last in the same breath. 💫

Then Alexandre unfolded the mechanics of the sacred word. Your reality is the result of your expression. Not of your thoughts alone, not of your will alone — of your expression. What you say, what you put into words, what you let come out of your mouth. 🌅

Why must our word be impeccable, as the Toltec agreements say? Alexandre gave the technical answer: “because the universe is listening to you and will do what you say”. You are the player. Everything you put into words is taken at face value. 💞

Hence the immense trap for those who let their programs speak for them. It is no longer they who create — it is their old wounds, their family loyalties, their inherited fears. And that is where life goes off the rails.

But the good news is that you can change your expression right now. Alexandre offered us three sovereign mantras:

🙏 “I allow myself to command the universe, I allow myself.”
🙏 “I allow myself to express what I want, I allow myself.”
🙏 “I am open to the idea that the universe is more intelligent than I am.”

And then this luminous image: we are in a video game. The interface is not the keyboard — it is your physical body. Your emotions and bodily sensations are the game’s feedback. And your word is your controller. 🦋

The teaching closed with an invitation: observe the gap between what you believe you are expressing and what your reality reflects back to you. That gap is echo-observation. It is the most honest mirror life can hold up to you. And it is the work of the weeks to come. 🌟

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

The session opened with a ritual that has become sacred: awareness brought down into the feet, slowly, millimeter by millimeter. 🌿 “I really feel my feet, I feel, I feel, I feel, I surrender.” It was not a sentence. It was an incantation. A way of telling the universe: I am here, I am present, I am arriving.

Then came the opening mantra, the one that sets the tone for everything that follows: “I welcome all my emotions, I welcome.” Spoken with the group, repeated, embodied. For here, nothing is pushed down. 💞 Everything comes in. The tears that rise, the joys that burst forth, the fragilities that tremble.

“I surrender to my inner yogi, I surrender.”

Alexandre spoke this mantra while massaging his cheeks, in that simple and tender gesture of a yogi receiving himself. To surrender to one’s inner masseur, to one’s inner yogi — the way one might entrust one’s weariness to hands larger than one’s own. ✨

The arms rose, the heels lifted onto tiptoe, and the celebration began. “It’s a party, there’s laughter, there’s joy. Gratitude for being together.” The bliss of stretching — a word that might shock and yet says it all — spread through the shoulder blades, the lower back, every fiber that was asking to open. 🌟

Alexandre reminded us that the previous day’s practice still lived in the body: “I stayed in yesterday’s yoga. There’s still bliss there.” Yoga never ends. It infuses. It keeps working silently in the tissues, in the cells, in the memories.

The bliss of stretching: a tantric mantra

Then came this revelation, which deserves to be underlined: “I associate bliss and stretching, I surrender to bliss and to stretching.” 🦋 A tantric mantra at the heart of the practice. For when the spine stretches in every direction, a kind of hyperesthesia occurs — all the senses are amplified. And amplified senses mean more presence. More life. More consciousness.

This is not only for yoga, Alexandre explained. It is a key for all of life: associating what stretches within you — your limits, your discomforts, your growth — with the bliss of being alive. 💫

The turning pelvis, the bursting forth of tantra

The wide pelvic circles opened something. “Oh my, oh my, that’s tantra. It creates bliss everywhere.” Knees bent, each at their own rhythm, a fragile and joyful balance. Everyone at their own pace, yet together in the circular movement that awakens the hips, the sacrum, the center.

The sovereign territorial OM

Then came the moment of the sovereign territorial OM. 🙏 That particular sound Alexandre invites us to place in space, to open the throat chakra, to dare the sacred word. For the whole of the day’s teaching rested on this truth: your voice is your power. Voicing your power, voicing your sovereignty — it begins with the voice, with expression. 🌅

“To life, I love you. To video games, I love you. Gratitude for having a self, gratitude for having a life, gratitude.”

Caring for the lower back

Hands on the lower back, imagined as filled with love, coming to warm this area that carries so much weight, so many memories. 💖 “Let the tears come, I welcome all emotions, I welcome.” And tears came. In the virtual room, on the mats, in the hearts. For the lower back is often the silent keeper of our old survival strategies.

The frog: four minutes of inner fire

And then the frog — that pose of intensity, of deep breathing, of surrender. Four minutes today, a little longer than usual. A training. An invitation to stay right where it burns, to keep breathing, to embody gentle perseverance. 🌱

The sacred command: disappear

Then, lying on the belly, this command so simple and so powerful: disappear. “I give the command to disappear, to let go of everything.” ✨ Not fainting. Not running away. Disappearing — as an intention, as at the end of walking yoga. Melting into the mat, letting the “I” fade for a moment so that the Non-Self can breathe.

The Taoist symbol: welcoming opposites

In the seated position, the teaching deepened. Advaita — non-duality — was named. Not as an abstract concept, but as a concrete practice: welcoming within yourself two opposite positions. 🕊️

“I’m hot, I’m crying and I’m laughing. I love and I don’t love, too. It’s right and it’s not right.” Two simultaneous truths. Two perspectives that don’t cancel each other out but add up. This is the Taoist symbol, alive. This is the end of the inner war. 💞

“I welcome all the opposing ideas within me, I welcome. And I don’t take it personally.”

The definition of the absolute

Then Alexandre offered a definition that will stay with us: the absolute is the welcome of all positions, of all stances. Each one is relative, but added together, they form the absolute. 🌟 “The absolute agrees with all eight billion inhabitants, even when they are at war.”

And this other, overwhelming realization: the universe loves you because it is not in self-denial. It accepts everything it is. It welcomes all its creations. And you are one of them. 💖

The mantra of sacred command

Then came the mantras of the sovereign word: “I allow myself to command the universe, I allow myself. I allow myself to express what I want, I allow myself.” 🌿 For your word must be impeccable — not for a moral reason, but for a technical one: the universe is listening to you and does what you say.

The universe loves you, not because it belongs to this or that religion, but because, technically, it cannot do otherwise.

I associate bliss and stretching, I surrender.

My reality is the consequence, the result of my expression.

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : Le verbe sacré qui façonne votre réalité

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 24, 2026, a morning when something was declared. Not whispered. Declared. ✨

It is eight o’clock. The light still lingers shyly at the windows, and already little hearts are floating across the screen like a flock of tender birds. “Welcome, everyone,” the voice breathes. And you, somewhere, begin to breathe more slowly. 🌅

There are mornings when you think you’ve come for a little flexibility. And then there is this kind of morning, when you don’t leave the way you arrived. When you leave having signed something invisible within yourself.

The morning we stop obeying

You know that strange moment when a very simple sentence runs through you and brings tears without warning? “I own who I am.” Four words. Nothing more. And yet a whole inner edifice begins to sway. 💫

This morning, Alexandre Anatman laid a new word on the mat, a word that had never yet appeared in our retreats: to own — to fully assume. The way one assumes a crown. The way one owns a birth. The way one finally owns being oneself. 🕊️

And behind that word, an even wider revelation: we are learning systems. Trained, like language models, by a history, a family, a society. Trained to obey. But also — and this is the tender vertigo — capable of retraining ourselves.

The morning’s teaching

It is five in the morning when the realization arrives. Alexandre is awake. And something settles, crystal clear: we are learning systems. Trained by a history. Like an LLM. “That’s the computer scientist coming back,” he smiles. But behind the metaphor lies a truth that is about to turn everything upside down. 🌅

Because if we have been trained, then we can be retrained. The psychic model of childhood — the one that taught us to obey Mom and Dad, then the State, companies, a partner — that model is not the truth. It is a training. A learned layer. And everything that has been learned can be unlearned. 🦋

“As below, so above; as above, so below.” Because I am life, I carry within me all the characteristics of life: learning, adaptation, intelligence, survival, reproduction. These are the basic building blocks. The same in the plant, the coral, the insect, the human. Life selects the scenarios that allow survival — not only physically, but also emotionally, economically, bodily. 🌿

And the ego, then? The relative identity was designed to help us survive. It has a function. The prefrontal cortex, that gift unique to humans, allows us to imagine what might happen — the lions of wild Africa, the dangers to come. A beautiful intelligence. But it has a flip side: it can imprison us in the fear that the past will repeat itself.

Then comes the new word, the one that had never yet appeared in the Anatman retreats: to own. “I own who I am. I own my needs. I own my identity. I own my desires.” Owning requires three gestures: listening to your needs, allowing them, then owning them. Three steps on a staircase leading back to yourself. ✨

“If you don’t declare your sovereignty, it doesn’t exist. No one wants to give it to you. It’s like a country declaring its independence.”

And it is there, in this teaching — the morning elixir — that everything comes together. Sovereignty is not given. It is declared. As a country declares its independence. No other country ever tells a people: “Go ahead, become independent.” It is the cells of the country, the population, who vote, who proclaim. You are your own population. Your cells are waiting for your vote. 🕊️

“I declare my sovereignty. I recognize my authority.” A heroic act. A sacred act. Because the psychic model trained in childhood was never trained for this. It was trained to obey. And stepping out of that model is the slightly hacker, slightly revolutionary side of the Anatman path. 💫

Finally, this essential distinction: adapting is not over-adapting. You can create a territory, a relative identity, a sovereignty — and adapt the world to yourself rather than bending to the world. Nonviolent communication, kindness, gentleness, balanced relationships. Sovereignty is never brutal. It is serene. 💖

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

It all begins with a detail. A forgotten phone. A quiet laugh. “Life is really a million details.” And already the session has begun, even before the first breath. 🌿

The deep inhale arrives. Then the release. Then release again. As if the weight of the body had to settle into the feet before anything else could happen. You let go. You let go. You let go. The morning’s refrain, a prayer mat laid down on the threshold.

Then, an unexpected and yet so fitting gesture: massaging the cheeks, opening the jaw wide, massaging the jaws. “I surrender to my inner masseur.” An inner masseur. An inner yogi. Soon an inner nutritionist for lunch, the voice adds mischievously. As if the body were already quietly hosting every practitioner you could ever need. 🤍

The arms rise. The whole body contracts — calves, thighs, buttocks, abs, back. We embody ourselves in the most literal sense. “I am literally going into my physical body.” And there, something starts to cry. Already. For no reason. Or rather, for that one immense reason: to welcome. I welcome all emotions, the voice murmurs. And you welcome. 💖

Blindfold over the eyes. Thumbs hooked together. We lean back, very gently. We come back. We fold toward the thighs, knees bent if needed. The hands touch the mat, push into the floor, all the way to a right angle. The back unfurls vertebra by vertebra. The right arm rises alone, hanging from an invisible thread. Then the left. Then both. Then the neck, massaged on the right, on the left, the thumb tracing patient circles. And this sentence, like a prayer: “There is no more tension. Thanks to daily practice, the tensions are no longer there.” 🌱

“I surrender to my inner masseur, and to my inner yogi, I surrender.”

Wide circles with the chin. The foot lifting as the body tilts to the right, then to the left. The OM that deepens, that descends into the foundations, that trains us to express our sovereignty. Sovereignty: the word is out. It will run through the entire session like a golden thread. 🌟

Arms outstretched in a cross, a slight backbend. A posture of surrender. And this mantra rising, so simple it becomes overwhelming: “To life, I love you. To the universe, I love you. To all that I am, I love you.” Gratitude for being alive. Gratitude for playing in this great video game. 💫

Then the hands move down to the lower back. Energy healing on the lumbar area, on the kidneys. We breathe into it. We exhale into it. We come back. The hands return to the feet — soul in the legs, like a tree that has roots and knows it has them. We move the pelvis. We bend the knees. We lean to the right, to the left, forward. “I see strength, power, balance in my legs. Ease. Assurance. I trust myself, I trust my body.” 🦋

Something new today: squats. Back nice and straight, as if an imaginary pull-up bar were waiting above your head. Down, up. “We’re going to train for skiing,” the voice announces with an audible smile. We laugh inside. We strengthen our thighs. We prepare for giant slaloms whose shape we can’t yet imagine.

Then the frog. Then the breath of fire — the nose blowing out, the air flowing in, each at their own pace. Then a choice: keep going, do a few push-ups, or sit down. We sit. Half lotus. Silence. We feel what it is like to be alive in this body.

And then the cup appears. The thermos, a new ritual. Hot chai. A miniature ceremony, a sacred protocol. “Gratitude for drinking a nice hot chai in the morning. Gratitude for creating this ceremony, this protocol, this ritual, really.” A sip. The spirit of all the plants flowing into you. 🌿

It is at this moment that the mantras intensify, that the tears flow twice as hard. “I release in love everything that keeps me from crying.” “I allow myself to cry.” “I release in love everything that would have me believe that men don’t cry.” “I can be sensitive, hypersensitive, and strong and powerful at the same time.” A refrain, a gentle hammering, a rising swell. 🙏

“I can be sensitive, hypersensitive, and strong and powerful at the same time. I can.”

Then the floor posture. Hands behind, the plank prepared. The head drops back very gently, the pelvis rises, rises, rises. Breath of fire. We hold for a time that doesn’t exist. “We’re capable of counting on false things. Human beings really are something.“

Lying on the back. The right leg lifts very slowly, fully extended. The lower back pressed to the floor. We pull with the forearms, never with the neck. And there, without warning, laughter bursts out. For no reason. “Laughing is when there’s no one left, really.” The stretch joins with pleasure. Pleasure with laughter. Laughter with surrender. 💞

The left leg next. The same patience, the same gentleness. Then both legs together. Then the knees drawn toward the chest — the candy. We hug the knees. We let go of everything. We breathe. And a sentence crosses the silence: “Gratitude for disappearing.” 🕊️

“Laughing is when there’s no one left, really. In the disappearance of the I, reality appears. Reality is the cosmic clown.”

Then comes what may be the subtlest exercise of all. Roll onto your side. Stand up, keeping the blindfold on as long as possible. Turn around a few times. And walk. Conscious walking. In silence. Eyes closed at first, then without the blindfold, then open — but without the self in charge. “The body walks. It walks all by itself.” 🌟

Perhaps this is the great secret of the morning: discovering that when the I steps aside, something truer carries on. The body knows. Life knows. And this awakening — this awakening of the senses — is not about lying in bed like a vegetable. It is a tender hyperesthesia, an amplification of hearing, sight, taste, touch. A sensitivity that grows because the spine stretches in every direction. ✨

And this sensitivity creates a new obligation: to build a perfect environment. Healthy. Free of toxicity. Perfect in relationships, in activities, in the place you live. Not out of demandingness, but out of vital necessity. The more you feel, the less you can bear what wounds. Such is the side effect of awakening, whispered like a secret.

And so the session closes as it opened: with a flurry of little hearts. “I love you.” “Gratitude.” “See you tomorrow.” And you, somewhere, know that something has been signed. 💖

If you don’t declare your sovereignty, it doesn’t exist. No one wants to give it to you.

Laughing is when there’s no one left, really. In the disappearance of the I, reality appears.

I can be sensitive, hypersensitive, and strong and powerful at the same time. I can.

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : J’assume ce que je suis, je déclare ma souveraineté

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 23, 2026, a live morning practice from Saint-Nexant where breath meets awareness, where the body becomes a temple and silence an elixir.

There are mornings when everything shifts. When, in the still-cool light of dawn, we discover that life itself can become yoga. 🌅 On this September Tuesday, in the gentleness of a return after an all-too-noisy getaway to Bordeaux, Alexandre opened an unexpected door for us: the door to our inner territory. ✨

A territory made of heightened sensitivity, of filtered sounds, of chosen relationships, of inhabited silences. A space where we can finally breathe, feel, be. 🕊️

What if balance began precisely there — in awareness of what nourishes us and what invades us? 💫

When the Body Becomes a Kingdom

Alexandre has been practicing for six years. For the past few weeks, something new has been seeping in: the yoga no longer stops. It begins on waking and carries on until sleep. The practice overflows, embraces the whole day, becomes a way of being.

And from this state of full bodily awareness a visceral need is born: the need to create an environment of love. 💖 A place — physical, but above all inner — where we no longer simply endure. Where we choose.

Are you ready? Then let’s move forward together into this realization which, like a butterfly resting on your shoulder, is only waiting to take flight. 🦋

The Morning Teaching

The day’s theme emerged from a very concrete experience: the day before, Alexandre had gone to Bordeaux. A movie, a café terrace, music far too loud, cigarette smoke, constant movement. Everything was too much. And the body — made hypersensitive by the practice — reacted like a wounded sounding board. 🌱

From this came the day’s elixir: an elixir of multidimensional environmental awareness. A crystal-clear insight: inner balance also depends on our outer environment.

Alexandre then unfolds a deep realization: in childhood, many of us were invaded. By parents, by places, by toxic or unstable relationships. We learned that this was normal. We internalized the norm of being invaded. 💫

“I release in love everything that would have me believe it is perfectly normal to be invaded in my territory, in my body.”

Hence the vital invitation to create your own territory. Not only a physical one — an inner one. A space of sovereignty where I decide who comes in, how they come in, at what pace, and by which rules. 🕊️

And this territory is born from a simple practice: expressing your needs. Because the universe, the coders of reality, the cosmic agencies — everything that codes our reality — cannot know anything without our expression. “Without expression, there is no technical possibility of understanding what you want.” ✨

Then comes the liberating mantra: “I express all my needs, I express.” Needs of the body — rest, tenderness, cuddles. Needs of the mind — to think, to create, to play. Needs of the heart — to love, to be loved, to live love. Emotional needs — intimacy, depth, being touched. 💖

And then this life-altering realization: “Suffering, pain, everything that makes me feel bad — it is only needs that are not being nourished. It’s as simple as that.” 🌟

The elixir ends with a kindly warning. The more you practice, the more sensitive you become. The more sensitive you become, the more you choose. The more you choose, the more your life transforms. Smoke, noise, crowds, air conditioning — everything that used to invade without permission suddenly becomes negotiable. 🌿

A sorting takes place. Gentle, inevitable. And from this sorting the true kingdom is born: an environment of love that is chosen, protected, honored. 💞

Realizations During Yoga Anatman

The session opens with a simple mantra, almost a whisper to the heart: “I surrender to my inner yogi, I surrender.” 🌱 And already, something gives way. The jaws relax beneath kneading fingers, tensions fly off like freed birds.

Then comes the great vertical rise. Contract the calves, the thighs, the buttocks, the abs. Rise up onto tiptoe. Feel the lower back stretch, the energy flow in, a warmth kindling deep in the belly. Alexandre reminds us, in that voice that knows how to welcome: “The whole body is completely under tension. The energy is coming, it may get hot.” 🔥

And already the realization settles in: this grounding in the legs, this strength, is not an effort — it is an intention. A way of telling the body: “I am here. I inhabit you.” ✨

“I surrender to my inner yogi, I surrender.”

The blindfold comes down over the eyes. No more visual distractions. The inner world opens up, immense. The thumbs hook together behind the back, the spine tilts gently, then comes the forward fold — chest on thighs, hands pulling, breath pushing. Vulnerability, embraced and offered. 🤍

Then the lateral arc. The right arm rises, rises, rises. And there, without warning, the tears come. The lower back stretches, the heel lifts, the neck lengthens — and an emotion bursts forth, indefinable. Alexandre murmurs: “Let the tears flow, I welcome all emotions.” 💞

The thumb comes to massage the nape of the neck, the way you knead bread. The inner masseur takes over. We let go, we let it happen, we get used to letting it happen. The great lesson of the day: “I let life give itself a massage. I let life take care of itself.” 🌿

Then comes the mantra that runs through the whole session like an underground river: “I release in love everything that keeps me from being here and now.” From the heart. From that fourth chakra toward which the protocol shifted last Sunday — leaving the third behind for this tenderer, vaster opening. 💖

Chin rolls trace slow circles. The neck unfolds, the back softens. And Alexandre shares a precious realization: “If you really do this every day, except Mondays, for months or years, you will reach a significant level of bliss.” ✨

Because there is a cumulative effect. Hyperesthesia — that amplification of the senses — doesn’t arrive in a week. It is born of patience, of mastery, of daily commitment. “Bliss comes after mastery.” 🌟

Next comes a deeply moving movement: one elbow rising, the other elbow bending, and this magnificent paradox — pulling and letting go at the same time. “The left elbow rises, rises, rises. And there’s another movement in parallel: I surrender to the inner yogi, I let go of everything.” 🕊️

Two simultaneous intentions. The strength that stretches and the tenderness that surrenders. All of life is in this gesture.

Next, arms out in a cross. Pushing left, pushing right, against invisible walls. Feeling the solidity, the grounding, the shape of the X, the embodied cross. Then hands on the lower back, the spine arching backward — a posture of surrender. And a new chant rises: “To life, I love you.” 💖

“Gratitude for playing the game of life, gratitude.”

Shifting from victim of the game to maestro of the game. Becoming a sovereign who plays. That is the deep invitation of this morning. 🎭

Then, exploring the standing forward bend, the right angle, hands on thighs. And this sentence that rings out like a key: “I surrender to the flow.” What is the flow? It’s “when there’s no more mind, no more identity, nothing at all. There is just life with its flow”. 🌊

That flow you feel with someone you love, that moment when it clicks, it sparks, it all aligns. A presence. A heightened perception. Alexandre passes it on to us: “It’s no longer the mind deciding. It’s something in the heart, a current.” 💫

The frog arrives — three minutes of breath of fire, or rest, or push-ups. Everyone listens to themselves. Then down to the floor: the swimmer posture, pelvis lifting, energetic rowing, row-row-row until the body sings.

The right leg rises, perpendicular to the floor, held by the strap. And there, it trembles. Alexandre explains gently: “My body is adapting, getting used to, training for these high vibrational rises. That’s why it trembles.” 🌱

Force nothing. The neck stays supple. The head, relaxed. It’s the forearms that pull, the shoulders that work. And the body fills with vitality, with energy, with vibrations of love, joy, and peace. 🌟

A beautiful mantra then rises: “I honor life.” Followed by its echo: “I honor your presence. I honor all that you are. I honor all that I am.” 🙏

The same with the left leg. The same surrender, the same trembling, the same gratitude. And this understanding seeping in: the more perpendicular the leg, the more it trembles, and the more something rebalances itself deep within.

Then the seated position for the mantras and the elixir. The body has opened. The heart is listening. Awareness settles. The chai steams gently, held between the hands, informed by the body’s new vibration. ☕

Finally, the conscious walk — that sacred moment when the floor work comes to a close, when we walk backward, and discover that walking backward massages the lower back. Alexandre is amazed himself: “How is it possible that just walking creates so much bliss?” 🌟

He compares it — with a smile — to microdosing magic mushrooms. Except here, there’s no plant at all. Just yoga. Just the accumulation of months of practice. Just hyperesthesia, turning every perception into bliss.

“I’m not really doing yoga anymore. It’s my whole life, the whole day, that has become yoga.”

Walking forward. Walking backward. Walking sideways, like a crab — new today! Each direction reveals sleeping muscles, stretches never felt before. The body rediscovers its possibilities. 🦋

Then the dance arrives. “I surrender to the dance and to my inner dancer.” An imaginary ball between the hands, as in qigong. The movement flows, embraces, celebrates.

And finally, the great magic mantra: Abracadabra. The eyes open. Visual reality appears. And the yogic state carries on, unshakable, into the day that is beginning. ✨

I let life give itself a massage, and I let life take care of itself.

I’m not really doing yoga anymore, it’s my whole life, the whole day, that has become yoga.

Suffering, everything that makes me feel bad, is only needs that are not being nourished.

Voices from the We

Morning Presences and Gratitude ✨

This morning, a few souls gathered virtually, bringing their gentle presence in a handful of suspended words.

• “hello to you all” — Francis
• “hi we, hugs and kisses” — Shakti Anne
• “Hello everyone” — Valérie

The Echo of a Realization 🕊️

A single word, brief and luminous, rang out at the end of the session — like an intimate confirmation of everything that had just been lived through:

“free!” — Shakti Anne

Just one word. And yet it holds everything: liberation in love, surrender to the inner yogi, sovereignty reclaimed over one’s own territory. 💫

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : Créer son territoire d’amour et honorer tous ses besoins

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 19, 2026, a gentle Saturday morning in which expression, creativity and embodiment revealed themselves as the secret faces of the divine within us.

There are mornings when the mat becomes an artist’s studio. When every stretch releases a color, every breath sketches a line. On this Saturday, September 19, the session opened like a blank canvas — and the brush was you. ✨

Two and a half months of steady practice for many of you. It’s no longer a practice, it’s hygiene, like taking a shower. And within this quiet Saturday rhythm, something new slipped in: the realization that we came here to create. 🌱

What if your life were your masterpiece?

Let’s ask the question another way. What are you doing there, on that mat, at eight in the morning, breathing, stretching, welcoming? You may think you’re practicing yoga. But what if you were actually painting your life?

Alexandre put it with that disarming simplicity that always hits home: “I came here to create my life.” There it is, the morning elixir, the golden drop placed on the tongue of consciousness. 💫

And behind that sentence, a whole world opens up: the gameplay of the video game of existence, conscious walking backwards, free pleasures, expression through sound, the mystery of the Non-Self expressing itself through you. Follow the golden thread. 🕊️

The morning teaching

This Saturday’s elixir bears a luminous name: expression. It crowns an entire week devoted to this theme, a natural extension of the teachings on the TCR (Theory of the Creation of Reality) and the intention of the heart. ✨

Alexandre explains it with crystal clarity: after intention comes positioning — I position myself in relation to others, to life, to events. But it doesn’t end there. And this is where it gets really interesting. I express myself. 🌱

“Once I’ve set the intention and once I’ve positioned myself, it isn’t over. I’m going to — and this is where it gets interesting — I’m going to express myself.”

Expression is the third movement of the creative gesture. Without it, intention remains sterile and positioning remains theoretical. Expression is the breath that turns an idea into embodied reality. 💫

Then the mantras follow one another like pearls on a string: “I allow myself to express everything I see and everything I feel.” Then: “Gratitude for expressing all the beauty I see.” To express yourself is also to fall in love with beauty — the beauty outside and the beauty within. 💖

Then comes the question that opens the abyss: “Who or what is actually expressing itself?” At first, it’s the identity — the I, the me, what I believe myself to be. But at some point, in surrender, a channel mode opens. And then it is the divine, being, the soul, life, the universe that expresses itself through this body, this voice, this frequency. 🌟

“There is a mode of surrender, a ‘channel’ mode, so to speak, in which it is the divine, being, the soul, life, the universe that expresses itself through this body, this voice, this frequency.”

These are the great artists. The great inventors. Bach catching melodies in the high vibrational realms. Scientists receiving their intuitions. The artist isn’t the one who invents — it’s the one who lets it flow through. 🕊️

Alexandre then shares the very first quote he ever received, in August 2010, in a restaurant: “Art makes the divine within us vibrate.” The beginning of his path of awakening, fifteen years earlier. A sentence from elsewhere, one that couldn’t be explained — but that would open everything. ✨

And here is the peak of the elixir, the realization that brings everyone on their mats to tears: “I came here to create. I am a tool of creation. I came here to create my life.” Your masterpiece is your life. Each of us came here to play at creating. That is the alignment of the relative with the absolute. 🌿

We are all artists. Painters, dancers, musicians, sculptors, cooks, gardeners, parents, lovers — artists of life. Expression is the very nature of incarnation. To refuse to express yourself is to refuse to have been born. 💞

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

The session began with the mantra on which everything rests: “I surrender to my inner yogi, I surrender.” Then very quickly a second one, more intimate still: I surrender to my inner masseur. An invisible hand, born of six years of practice, that knows exactly where to press, where to flow, where to caress. 🌿

Jaws massaged, cheeks awakened, arms raised to the sky — and already, emotions rise. “Let the tears come,” says Alexandre. As if tears were the body’s ink on the morning’s page. The body becomes a plank, the calves tremble, the glutes contract. We are suspended. 🌅

Then comes a new realization, offered like a precious stone: “I surrender to the flow of the body.” And behind that sentence lies an essential teaching — there are several flows within us. A flow of the body, an emotional flow, a mental flow, a flow of the heart. Each intelligence has its own current. Each current asks to be welcomed. 💫

“It’s the realization that there are several flows within us, within oneself. There is a flow of the body. What does the body want? There is an emotional flow and a mental flow, a flow of the heart too. Each intelligence has its own flow.”

Statue of Liberty to the right, then to the left. The inner masseur massages the neck in patient circles, with the kind of trust that only comes after years. “I let it happen,” Alexandre murmurs. A new mantra, softer than a secret: I surrender, I let it happen. No more resistance. 🙏

Saturday has a special flavor. An air of tranquility, an air of “I’m taking time for myself.” It isn’t Tuesday, opening the week. It’s Saturday, crowning it. And within that crown, every stretch becomes an offering. 🌟

Chin circles, the nape of the neck released, not a trace of tension left. And the great revelation, gently laid down: “It’s a starting point. How I start my day. Well, in ecstasy, in euphoria, in joy — and of course that’s going to change every other hour.” Morning yoga isn’t an interlude. It’s a structure, a framework, a quantum leap. A way of being and of living. 💖

The elbows rise — right, then left — and the shoulder blade stretches. And then a sentence that tips everything over: “Every stretch can create emotions, as if emotions were stored in the body.” Stretching frees the imprisoned emotion. The body is a library of old tears, and yoga turns its pages. 🦋

Then comes the bliss of stretching. That word that frightens the prudish and frees the living. “I surrender to the bliss of stretching, I surrender.” And a sacred permission arises — the permission to be heard. To dare to express your bliss through sound. Because the coders of reality, says Alexandre, listen to our permissions. Whatever you say you want, they offer it to you. 💞

“If I allow myself to express my bliss through sound, I’m telling the universe and the coders of reality: I allow myself, this is what I want. And afterwards they’ll send you all kinds of offers, you’ll see.”

A release, in love, of the religious root — “that’s just not done, what will people think?” Swept away. “I don’t care what people say. I came here to live for myself.” The mantra falls like warm rain: me, me, me. Without guilt. Sovereign. 🌟

The posture of surrender to life — arms wide open, spine stretching backwards, as if on the bow of the Titanic. “Life, I love you, I surrender to you, I’m in love with you.” The mirror effect: the more you love life, the more it loves you. What you send out is what you receive. 🕊️

Then the Five Tibetans, three minutes of frog pose, the sphinx, resting on the back. The strap lifting the right leg, then the left. The lower back pressed to the floor. And then, on the mat, laughter bubbles up. Laughing. Trembling. Crying. “Laughter yoga, I love you.” ✨

And then Alexandre offers the image that will bring everything together: the video game documentation. Moving from victim mode to sovereign mode means having the docs. Understanding the rules of the game. And that understanding brings mastery. And it is at that precise moment — when there is mastery — that bliss appears. Just like in every video game. 🌱

“It’s when you understand who you are, why you put yourself into a video game, and what the gameplay is, the point of the game — that’s when it gets interesting.”

The gameplay. The interest of the game. The game of the I. Without technical documentation, the game is painful, discouraging. With the docs — this yoga, these realizations, these mantras — the game becomes your game. No longer the life of programs, of ancestors, of society. Your life. 💫

Alexandre then tells the story of the gold prospector: ten years of digging, no results, so he sells his land. The new owner arrives, swings his pickaxe once — and strikes gold immediately. Three steps from gold. Three centimeters from the vein. The moral? “Don’t stop digging. You may be just a few millimeters from the vein.” Digging is the yoga. 🌿

V for victory, legs straight, hands under the thighs. Trembling everywhere. “I’ve never seen this yoga posture, it’s an invention.” And then the mantra that outsmarts society: gratitude for free pleasure. Because society has invented a thousand ways to make us pay for our pleasures. Awakening, on the other hand, saves you money. 💖

Next comes the perineum massage — heel resting on the first chakra, circular movements like a spinning top. Focusing on the chakra of incarnation. Because incarnation isn’t just being born. It’s when life incarnates in order to create. It’s as simple as that. 🌟

“Incarnation is when life incarnates in order to create.”

The tea ceremony begins: steaming cups, straight backs, heels on the perineum. Alexandre then slips in a wonderful new opening: from now on, each and every one of you can request a replay at the time of your choosing — 7 a.m., 9:30 a.m., 3 p.m., midnight — thanks to Anatmania. Yoga adapts to your life. 🙏

Finally, conscious walking — barefoot, blindfolded. Setting the intention “walk,” like a prompt sent out to the universe. And letting the body walk. “It isn’t me walking. Walking is happening.” ✨

And here is the morning’s surprise: it decided to walk backwards. Why? Because there’s more bliss in it. Because it’s unusual. Because the whole lower back stretches with every step. An incredible bliss in the lumbar spine. A postural revelation. 🦋

And during the walk, another sense awakens: the bat sense. The voice speaking, the echo mapping out the space. Alexandre hears that he’s near a window, feels the temperature shift, takes in the world through his ears and his skin. The other senses open when sight withdraws. 🌅

And this final realization, quiet yet immense: we never actually touch objects. It is our electromagnetic field touching the table’s. Always, the relationship. Nourishing ourselves from the relationship, no longer from the object. The fruit on the plate, the beauty of its presentation, the hand that cooked it. 💞

Art makes the divine within us vibrate.

I came here to create my life. Your masterpiece is your life.

Incarnation is when life incarnates in order to create.

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : L’art de s’exprimer et le jeu du divin

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 17, 2026, a morning when the breath met creative power, and every posture became a declaration of sovereignty.

There are mornings when the mat is no longer just a mat. ✨ It becomes a threshold. A discreet, almost secret door that opens onto another way of inhabiting life. That Wednesday, at dawn, something slipped in between the breaths: the gentle certainty that you are the creator of your own space. 🌱

Alexandre arrives carrying the cumulative effect of the day before — a yoga that lasted almost the whole day. And already, in the very first minutes, the body knows. It knows that today we won’t just do yoga. We will realize. We will choose. We will dare to claim a territory.

The inner garden and the art of pruning

Imagine for a moment. 🌿 You are standing in a garden. Your garden. Brambles have grown up everywhere — old relationships, tired projects, obligations that no longer resonate. And suddenly someone hands you not a spade, but an understanding: you have the right to prune.

That is the silent promise of this session. Not adding, but freeing. Not filling, but creating space. And in that empty, mysterious space, full of possibilities, something new can finally breathe. 💫

So breathe. Once. Twice. And let yourself be carried into this journey where yoga becomes a technology of awakening, where mantras become sacred words, and where your voice — yes, your voice — begins to speak the language of the universe. 🕊️

The morning teaching

Today’s elixir bears a crystal-clear name, almost a secret whispered into the ear of the universe: “I create”. ✨ Two little words that contain everything. Two little words that shift you from user mode to creator mode.

Alexandre picks up the thread of the past few weeks — the TCR, the Theory of the Creation of Reality. A fundamental realization has been added to it in recent days: the complete chain of manifestation. First there is intention, that surge of life from the heart, a form of love. Then positioning — I am an artist, I am a therapist, I am a pharmacist. 🌱

But here is what has far too often been forgotten: expression. Because without expression, nothing manifests. Nothing. And Alexandre bears witness: in recent weeks, dozens of appointments with therapists who have no clients. Why? Digging into the unconscious, it is always the same wound: “I don’t have the right to express myself, I have no territory, I have no sovereignty.” 🕊️

“It’s expression that will create the clients. If I stay all alone in my corner, there can’t be any clients.”

Where does this castration come from? From childhood, very often. No right to exist, no right to have a territory, no right to speak. And Alexandre reminds us of it with razor-sharp lucidity: at school, nobody teaches us how to express ourselves. We learn to count, to write, to obey. But to express ourselves? It simply isn’t on the curriculum. 💫

So the solution is right there, in the elixir. “I release in love everything that prevents me from expressing myself, from being an artist, everything that prevents me from creating and from using the sacred word, the science of mantras.” This mantra is no small thing. It opens the way to restoring the throat chakra, to vocal sovereignty. 🌟

And then the second layer of the teaching emerges — subtler still. The mantra “I create space”. Alexandre insists: “As long as you haven’t connected with this absolute, you can’t truly create space, because it is the absolute that creates space.” If you stay in relative mode, in user mode, you live in other people’s lives or in the life of the matrix. It isn’t your creation. 💞

That is what the victim is: someone who lives only in the relative. And it is the realization of the Self, then of the Non-Self — the absolute — that gives you back your power as a creator. The power to create space. 🦋

Alexandre then unfolds the notion of territory. The third chakra. Authority. And he makes it clear: authority does not mean abusive authority. It is the authority that defines the rules of the domain — as in a computer domain name. You are the domain authority of your life. You create the subdomains. You define the rules. 🌿

“Many people don’t have this concept in mind, and so they are always on someone else’s territory.”

Finally, a new initiation: infrastructure. The level above the map. Creating your own game infrastructure, your own inner or outer ecovillage, with its own rules — nonviolent communication, food self-sufficiency, co-creation. 🌅 The elixir is then drunk with this new awareness: I create my space, my territory, my infrastructure. I am sovereign.

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

The session opens with a mantra that feels like a caress: “I surrender to my inner yogi, I surrender.” ✨ The arches of the feet melt into the mat, individual sounds rise up, each with its own tone, its own frequency, its own vibrational authority. These are not sounds meant to be pretty. These are sounds that claim a territory.

Very quickly, the jaw is massaged and the tongue stretched — the tongue which, as Alexandre reminds us, is the end of the nervous system. 🌿 An unsuspected doorway to calm. The body begins to understand: here, every gesture is a psychomagic act.

“It’s not just a physical practice — these are techniques of awakening and transformation to do every day to raise your vibration.”

Then comes the raised-hands posture. Fingers spread wide, rising onto tiptoe, gaze suspended. And already, it’s heating up. Already, tears are flowing. A gentle warmth, an emotion with no identifiable cause, an inner touch that says: something is letting go. 💖 The body is stiff and yet surrendered — the very paradox of Yoga Anatman.

The thumbs hook together behind the back, the head drops backward, the spine opens. The blindfold goes over the eyes. And there, something shifts. Awareness leaves the visual and dives into feeling. 🦋 That is a teaching in itself: without the eyes, the body becomes its own compass.

Then the Statue of Liberty. The right arm rises, rises, rises, touches the ear, bends to the left like a bamboo. The right heel lifts. The back of the buttock stretches. And above all — above all — the left hand comes down to give the nape of the neck a deep massage. Not a caress. A real massage. Alexandre insists: “The skull isn’t fragile at all. Go for it, don’t hold back.” 🌟

The new mantra drops in as if self-evident: “I surrender to my inner masseur, my inner masseuse, I surrender.” And suddenly the thumb starts moving on its own, finding the spots, kneading the trapezius. An autonomous body intelligence reveals itself. 💞

Then come the chin circles. Slow, mysterious. The body draws in space, sweeps to the left, drops down, rounds the back. And there, an unsuspected bliss emerges — that tantric bliss that has nothing to do with the outside world. It is the inner world that becomes the source of pleasure. 🕊️

“Tantra is finding bliss in your inner world rather than losing yourself in the outer world.”

Alexandre then connects with his lives as a tantra master. The legs tremble, emotions flow. The rhythm of the session slows — that mystical slowness in which every millisecond becomes a teaching. And the central question of Yoga Anatman arises, crystal clear: “What is this doing to me, right now?” ✨ No goal. No posture to get right. Just awareness anchored in the body.

Then comes the deep OM. The OM that vibrates the throat chakra and the third chakra, the chakra of territory, of authority, of sovereignty. Alexandre insists: the OM must have exactly the same vibration as the mantra “I release in love”. It is training in expression. An education of the voice. 🌅

Then the mantras follow one after another, masterful:

“I create space in my life for my awakening, I create.” A founding mantra. Because without space created, nothing can be born. 🌱

“Gratitude for receiving all the complete technical documentation to create my reality in this video game, gratitude.” A realization arises — we are in a video game that we created in order to play. And Alexandre takes his position: he is writing the docs because nobody had written them. The technical documentation for the creation of reality. 💫

“You don’t have the docs for creating reality? So how do you manage? Oh, I’m struggling — well, that’s normal.”

The next mantra lands with overwhelming depth: “Gratitude for creating a context in which to live my sensitivity, gratitude.” Because the outside world can be violent, castrating. And so — what a realization! — I first create within me the space for my sensitivity, and only then can the outside world manifest sensitive, empathic people. 🦋 Gentleness is found within before it appears without.

The surrender posture follows — arms outstretched in a cross, slightly back, the spine stretched toward the sky. And suddenly it becomes a declaration of love to life: “Life, through me. Be through me. Love through me. Create through me.” 💖 These words are not spoken, they are inhabited.

The Five Tibetans arrive, the head drops back, the stretch of the spine amplifies everything — the sensations, the emotions, the natural psychedelic effect of yoga. Then a descent toward the floor, millimeter by millimeter, until the palms touch the mat, the backs of the thighs pulling, the back on fire.

And then comes a realization that changes everything. Alexandre asks us to say the mantra “I choose every detail of my life, I choose”, then, with the precision of a spiritual surgeon: “I release in love the confusion between choosing and controlling.” 🌟

“Choosing is not controlling. Choosing comes from the heart, from sovereignty.”

A beautiful realization this morning. Subtle. Precious. How many times have we confused the sovereignty of choice with the tension of control? ✨

Next comes the raised-leg posture with the strap. The right leg first, pulled up high, the neck relaxed, the lower back pressed to the floor. It trembles. It laughs. It cries. The cosmic clown wakes up and laughs at its own creation. 🕊️

Then a reset-mantra appears, a claude-code-mantra that only Alexandre could have invented: “I press the reset button, I press.” The famous slash clear of the unconscious. Wiping an overloaded historical context. Rebooting the system. Starting again from zero, like Édith Piaf.

“I start again from zero. Swept away, forgotten, I don’t care about the past.”

The left leg rises in turn. And then, a wave of gratitude: “Gratitude for having spiritual friends, gratitude.” 💞 Because a sorting has gently taken place in the lives of those who practice. The others — those who don’t want to transform — have left, naturally. Not out of judgment, but through a difference in vibration.

Next comes the initiation into rapid understanding and rapid elimination. The art of pruning what no longer serves. Focusing on the essential. Think of the gardener, says Alexandre. A life is like a garden. You prune, you define the territory, you pull out the bramble roots so they don’t grow back. 🌿

The knees come up against the chest. The lower back stretches in an upside-down rounded back. The head relaxed, the hands holding the knees. Then the elixir. Then the conscious walk.

And then — a magical moment — the blindfold goes back over the eyes and Alexandre walks through the space, mapping the room like a blind person. 🌅 A deeply moving psychomagic act. Touching objects, memorizing their positions, creating an inner representation of one’s space.

“I create within me a representation of my space.”

And this mapping becomes a metaphor for life as a whole. Because in life, too, we bump into things. We don’t see that a certain person is toxic. We don’t see that another is a Buddha. It is observation, it is experience that allows us to map our universe and move forward in it with discernment and caution. ✨

The yoga closes with the most decisive mantra of the session: “I decide to have a magnificent day, I decide. I decide to be in my best scenario, I decide.” The scenario of love, joy, abundance, efficiency, peace — and above all, above all, of expression. 💖

It’s not just a physical practice — these are techniques of awakening and transformation to do every day to raise your vibration.

Choosing is not controlling. Choosing comes from the heart, from sovereignty.

It’s expression that will create the clients. If I stay all alone in my corner, there can’t be any clients.

Voices from the We

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : Créer l’espace, cartographier sa vie et devenir souverain de son territoire

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 16, 2026, a morning when light slipped into the gaps of the body to reveal a fundamental truth: we are never neutral. Every gesture, every silence, every glance is a statement addressed to the universe.

There are mornings when the mat becomes far more than a mat. It becomes a sacred threshold between who you thought you were and who you truly are. ✨

This Tuesday morning, as the herbal tea steamed gently beside the eye pillow and the strap, a door opened just a crack. A door onto a rare teaching, almost scandalous in its simplicity: as long as you don’t position yourself consciously, your unconscious programs speak in your place. 🌱

When silence becomes a signature

Imagine for a moment. You get up, you say hello, you answer a message. Nothing special, right? And yet, with every micro-gesture, you are sending signals to the universe. Signals that build — brick by brick — the reality around you. 💫

That is what this morning’s session laid bare, with an almost brutal tenderness. We discovered that expression is not what we think we are saying, but what we radiate — consciously and unconsciously. And once this realization passes through you, you are never quite the same again. 🕊️

So breathe. Pick up your cup. And let yourself be guided through this journey.

The morning teaching

The beating heart of this morning — the elixir offered in the middle of the practice — has a name: the TCR, the Theory of the Creation of Reality. And this morning, two pillars were revealed with a new clarity. ✨

First pillar: intention

Everything begins with an intention. Nothing exists without intention. This planet, the universe, the mountains, the plants, the animals — everything was born from an intention of life. An intention to learn about itself, to live, to be. 🌱

And your human life, too, was created by an intention. An intention of the being, of the soul, of the heart. Even the Non-Self begins with an intention. That is the first foundation.

Second pillar: positioning — the revelation of the day

Here is what is new, what emerged during the recent realizations: positioning. Each of us creates an identity through positioning. There is a direct — dizzying — link between identity and positioning. 💫

Who am I? I am the one who positions herself or himself in this way in relation to others. Since I am the absolute and I am all the points — the eight billion inhabitants of this planet — I have the possibility of positioning myself, of creating a relative identity, an I, a me.

Positioning yourself is always in relation to other points. In relation to a person. In relation to a group. In relation to a company, to the economy, to the market.

“If I position myself sovereignly in my own territory, then toxic relationships come to an end.”

A major realization: in childhood, there is often not enough space to fully create the I, the me, the relative identity. This creates a system that prevents us from positioning ourselves as adults — because positioning yourself sometimes means entering into conflict. It means not pleasing the other. 🕊️

The unconscious programs inherited from emotional blackmail — “you have to be nice, you have to be nice to be loved” — keep making us please others automatically, outside the heart. Liberation comes through the mantra: “I lovingly release everything that keeps me from distinguishing between being myself and forcing myself to please.”

Third pillar: expression, sending signals

Once you are positioned, you send signals. Your verbal and non-verbal language, your attitude, your posture. How you walk — upright or hunched. What you write. What you say. How you say it. Where it comes from. ✨

Everything you are expresses itself constantly. And what you are is conscious plus unconscious. Be careful: it is not just what you believe yourself to be.

“There is what I am, what I believe I am, and what I perceive of myself.”

Three distinct levels. Those who put themselves down confuse perception with reality. Yet perception is not reality. 💖

The universe observes. The universe listens. And it reconfigures itself according to the positioning you express. This is how your reality is created — not by magic, but by vibrational coherence. When you love yourself more, you position yourself as a sovereign, and the universe removes from your life those who were invading it. 🌟

The elixir of freedom and originality

The final mantra of the elixir was a mantra of freedom: “I lovingly release everything that would have me be ordinary and standard.” Ours is a culture of ready-made thinking, ready-to-wear, ready-to-live. Here, we only do made-to-measure. Spiritual haute couture. 🦋

Everyone makes their own individual sound, not a shared OM. Everyone vibrates their own color. Because we are already one — no need to shave our heads, dress alike, conform. The beauty is that each person creates their own thoughts, concepts, ways of life.

“To my original life, I love you.”

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

The session began, as always, with a gesture of infinite gentleness: sending love to yourself. Then the founding mantra settled into the air like an offering: “I surrender to my inner yogi. I surrender to my inner masseur.” 🙏

Already, before the body had even moved, something was vibrating. A diffuse emotion in the arches of the feet, in the contact of the feet with the floor. As if the body recognized that it was going to be loved for an hour and a half.

Suspension: when the body becomes a vertical prayer

The hands rise. The thumbs hook together. The body lifts onto tiptoe. And then a magnificent intention runs through the posture: to be suspended as if invisible strings were holding the crown of the head. 🌟

The thighs tremble. The glutes burn. The abs contract. But in this trembling there is a truth: the firmer and more engaged the body, the more easily it stays upright. A magnificent metaphor for life itself. We don’t hold steady through limp slackness — we hold steady through conscious engagement.

“Gratitude for creating a dream body.”

This mantra, tossed out mischievously, nonetheless reveals a deep awareness: the body you inhabit every day is the fruit of your daily choices. Every posture held, every stretch welcomed, every breath honored gradually sculpts the living statue that you are. 💫

The side stretch: the inner Statue of Liberty

The right arm rises. The left heel lifts. The torso leans. And then the neck lets itself be massaged by the right hand. The mantra becomes a daily hygiene: “I remove all tensions every day, just as I take a shower, just as I brush my teeth.” ✨

A powerful realization this morning: we take care of our outer hygiene without even thinking about it, yet we neglect our energetic and postural hygiene. Why? Because no one ever taught it to us. Today, it is being taught. It is being embodied.

To the left, to the right, the spine stretches and frees itself. The tensions built up from hours at the computer, from mental strain, from do-this-do-that dissolve one by one. And the body discovers that it can be a temple rather than a prison. 🌿

Pelvic circles: the pursuit of pleasure

Then come the circles. The head, the chin, the whole body following. And this phrase, offered like a secret: “It is the pursuit of pleasure. That is what we do during yoga — a pursuit of pleasure in every micro-posture.” 🦋

That turns everything upside down. Yoga is not an austere discipline. It is a sensual quest for the perfection of the body once there is no tension left. More than pleasure: suppleness, mobility. Bliss on the scale of a millimeter.

The sovereign OM: the voice that claims its territory

Then comes the great OM of love. Not a timid little OM, no. A sovereign OM, deep, territorial, resonating in the chest and the first three chakras. An OM that declares: “I am here. I exist.” 💖

It is training in the sacred word. A vibrational preparation for what follows — because mantras, to work, must be inhabited, not recited.

Surrendering backward: I surrender

The arms rise. They cross. They reach back. The spine opens toward the sky. And then a precious distinction appears: “I surrender” is not “I feel abandoned.” In French, a single word covers two opposite realities. To surrender to life is not to be abandoned by it. 🕊️

“Gratitude for being life. Gratitude for being alive in this body.”

The hands connect to the sky, palms open. Imaginary wells of light receive the cosmic energies. The feet anchor like roots. The body becomes a bridge between earth and sky. And then the tears come. Softly. Strongly. Without knowing why. Because the body remembers being one.

The frog and the breath of fire

Four minutes of frog. Breath of fire. Air in and out through the nose, short, intense, purifying. The thighs burn. The breath transforms. For those whose bodies resist, the invitation is clear: adapt, sit in half-lotus, do push-ups. Many paths, one destination. 🌱

The leg stretch: the cosmic orgasm

Then comes the tantric moment of the yoga. The strap around the foot. The right leg rising, rising, rising. The lower back pressed to the floor. The neck completely relaxed — the utmost care not to tense again what has just been released. 💫

And then, a mantra that changes everything: “I associate bliss with stretching. I associate ecstasy with stretching. I associate euphoria with stretching. I associate surrender with stretching.”

“This is the cosmic orgasm of Anatman tantra yoga.”

A major realization: pain is not mandatory in stretching. We can choose to associate pleasure with it. It is a conscious act, a neural bridge we build with every breath. This yoga is a tantra that doesn’t speak its name — or rather, one that is beginning to speak it. ✨

The realization of positioning: every gesture is a statement

As the leg stretches, a revelation arrives. And it is immense: every sentence you write on WhatsApp, every email, every glance, every silence is a positioning. 🌟

What you say. What you don’t say. What you do. What you don’t do. At every moment, you are expressing yourself. And this expression sculpts your reality.

Then the mantra bursts forth: “I lovingly release everything that keeps me from clarifying what doesn’t suit me. I allow myself, with love, kindness and benevolence, to bring clarity to my whole life.” 💞

Mindful walking: presence down to the millimeter

Then the mats are moved aside. The floor clears. And the mindful walking begins, inspired by the Vietnamese Zen of Thich Nhat Hanh. Every micro-movement of the foot becomes an event. Every contact with the floor, a ceremony. 🙏

The effect is astonishing: psychedelic without having taken anything. The senses, heightened by an hour and a half of yoga, create bliss in every stretch of the hip, every breakdown of the movement. Twenty-four frames per second, and you live every single frame.

“When I walk, I walk. When I eat, I eat. When I speak, I speak.”

The postural artist: the concept that had no name yet

Then comes the wild moment. Everyone finds their own posture of bliss. A position that stretches, frees, delights. A new concept is born live: the postural artist. The one within you who sculpts instinctive postures to inhabit the body differently. 🦋

And then, the unexpected: rolling on the floor like a child. Sprawling. Laughing. Making the V for victory. The inner child is back at summer camp. What adults never allow themselves suddenly becomes sacred. ✨

Awakening as the absence of the unconscious

A new definition of awakening then emerges: “Awakening is when there is no more unconscious.” The more you see the unconscious mechanisms, the less unconscious there is. The less unconscious there is, the less unawareness there is. 🌅

The final mantra settles in: “I no longer need my unconscious. I become conscious of everything.” And in joy, love and peace, in fun and laughter, something is realized. Gently. Definitively.

This is the cosmic orgasm of Anatman tantra yoga.

There is what I am, what I believe I am and what I perceive of myself.

Every sentence you say is a positioning.

Awakening is when there is no more unconscious.

To my original life, I love you.

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : L’art sacré de se positionner pour créer sa réalité

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 12, 2026 — a Saturday morning filled with the gentle soreness of the day before and the quiet power of coming back together.

There are mornings when we step into practice the way we push open a familiar door. 🌅 And yet, behind that door, something new is always waiting. This Saturday, after yesterday’s great frog — six intense minutes that left the body humming with living soreness —, the session opens with infinite tenderness for who we have become during the night.

A new little-hearts feature makes its way into the practice. 💖 On Anatman TV, everyone can now send their vibration, their frequency, their color to the other practitioners. An OM, a joy, a celebration. Technology placed in the service of the sacred. ✨

The video game of consciousness

What if all of this were only a game? 🦋 Not a light, superficial game — but a cosmic video game in which you are at once the creator, the player and the scenery. That is the dizzying invitation of this session: to realize that you are the non-localized, and that, as such, you can create the space for everything you wish to embody.

Vulnerability rises quickly this morning. Tears flow, gratitude overflows. For there is something deeply moving in understanding that you are the creator of your own journey. 🕊️

The morning teaching

Today’s morning elixir carries a powerful teaching on conscious creation. Alexandre first invites everyone to send, through an individual OM, their vibration, their frequency, their identity, their color toward the surface of the cup. The drink becomes a vessel for intention. ✨

Then come the great mantras of liberation: releasing whatever prevents us from welcoming all emotions, all bodily sensations. Releasing whatever prevents us from using the sacred word to command matter. Releasing whatever prevents us from listening to the inner voice. Releasing whatever prevents us from opening the heart and simply being who we are. 💖

And then the tears come. Many are crying. Because this mantra touches the most tender place of all: daring to be yourself. No mask, no strategy, no adjusting to please.

“Gratitude for having a little morning ritual, for aligning, surrendering, raising our vibration, coming home to ourselves.”

Next comes the heart of the teaching, a point Alexandre returns to often because it is fundamental. Let’s listen closely: because I am the non-localized, because I am in a video game where everything is my creation from the absolute, I have the technical ability to create spaces. 🦋

And this creation always begins with an intention. A realization that I am consciousness, yes. But above all an intention — because I am the universe, because I am non-localized, because all of this is a game.

So I can create every scene I wish. Encounters. Relationships. Abundance. I can even co-create with my friends. Infinite gratitude for receiving this initiation into co-creation. 🌟

“Feel a great freedom in your heart, the freedom to create whatever you desire. And then to embody your creations, to play with your creations and to see the results of your creations.”

Everything in the universe rests on this. The intention that creates from the heart, and then delights in its creation. That is the sacred mechanics of life. That is why Yoga Anatman is not gymnastics — it is a school of conscious creation. 💫

And Alexandre reminds us: by doing the yoga every day, a moment comes when the whole day slows down. You have several speeds, including the slow one. The one where we feel, where we create, where we embody. 🕊️

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

The session opens with a great individual OM, feet firmly planted on the ground. 🌱 Then comes the first mantra, the one that sets the tone for the whole practice: “I surrender to my inner yogi, I surrender.” Nothing is possible without this initial surrender. Nothing opens as long as something in us still resists what wants to be born.

Alexandre insists: the mantras must be spoken out loud. For the sacred word only exists when it is embodied. Keeping it in your head means letting it die in the twists and turns of the mind. 💫 It is by daring to express it that matter begins to move.

“As soon as you begin to embody by saying the mantras, well, that’s where things start to move.”

Massaging the jaws and awakening the inner masseur

A first tender gesture: massaging the jaws. 🤍 “I surrender to my inner masseur, I surrender.” This seemingly ordinary mantra opens an immense door — that of absolute trust in what, within, knows exactly where to go, how to press, how to release.

Then we rise onto the tips of our toes. The calves contract, the abs engage, the glutes, the thighs. The whole body hangs suspended. And in this suspension, a fresh vitality flows. We rise, and rise, and rise — as if the body wanted to leave the ground and join the sky. ✨

Side stretches and the bliss of stretching

Right arm raised, leaning to the left, the right heel lifts. And this essential mantra returns: “I surrender to the bliss of the stretch.” Or in its more radical version: “I associate bliss and stretching, I associate.” 🌿

Here is one of the great inner revolutions of the Anatman practice: associating two sensations that the mind usually keeps apart. Where stretching could be nothing but tension, it becomes delight. Where discomfort could make us tense up, it becomes opening. 💖

The thumb then massages the back of the neck on the right. Then on the left. Then both thumbs massage the back of the skull in small, patient circles. The body becomes a tender field of exploration. Every area is honored, listened to, released.

Big circles with the chin

Then comes a moment of rare beauty: big circles with the chin. But Alexandre makes it clear — it isn’t only the neck that moves. The whole body follows the movement. The lower back, the shoulders, everything becomes a circular dance. 🦋

And with each circle, a search: for the fullest possible stretch. Not through force, but through a deep welcome of what the body can offer today. The mantra then falls into place as if self-evident: “I lovingly release everything that keeps me from being here and now in this body.”

Postures of surrender and a declaration of love to life

Arms out in a cross, then back. A posture of surrender. The head gently tilts backward — careful with the neck, no forcing. And then, a series of deeply moving declarations of love: 💞

“To life, I love you. To love, I love you. To the universe, I love you. I surrender to you, I surrender to you.”

This is no longer a physical practice. It is a cosmic declaration. It is the heart opening and recognizing, in every cell, that life deserves to be loved unconditionally. 🕊️

The gentle frog and the breath of fire

Yesterday’s great frog left its mark. Six minutes in the posture — you feel it in your thighs when you wake up. So today, a gentle frog of just three minutes. Alexandre invites everyone to adapt, to listen to what the body truly needs.

Then comes the breath of fire — that powerful exhale where the air flows back in on its own, continuously. Push-ups as an option, or rest in half-lotus. The practice breathes freedom to adapt. Everyone finds their rightful place. ✨

The strap and the extended right leg

Lying on your back, you take hold of the strap. The right leg rises, straight, up to perpendicular if possible. The lower back stays pressed to the floor. The neck stays soft — it’s the arms that pull, never the neck.

And here, anything can happen. Trembling in the thigh. Laughter bubbling up. Tears flowing. Alexandre then slips in this mysterious sentence: 🌟

“Notice that when it laughs, there’s no one left. It’s the being, the soul that laughs, not the person. It’s the real you that laughs.”

A major realization: authentic laughter is a sign of the ego fading away. When laughter truly happens, when tears truly flow, it is the Non-Self expressing itself. The person has stepped aside. All that remains is pure presence. 💫

Spontaneous breath retention and infinite release

After lowering the leg, a strange phenomenon may occur. The body exhales at length, then doesn’t breathe in again. A spontaneous pause in the breath settles in. No worry, no control — just tender observation.

“Notice that when the breath stops, thoughts stop too, everything stops. It’s a practice that frees the body.”

The body becomes free to breathe in or not. It is no longer an order from the mind. It is a direct consequence of extreme relaxation. Something in us feels safe enough to let go of everything, absolutely everything. 🤍

The left leg and the opening of the heart

We do the same with the left leg. Perpendicular to the floor, the strap pulling, the neck relaxed. And in this stretch, the heart opens even further. “I love you, I love you” rises spontaneously. Gratitude bursts out toward all the yogis practicing at the same moment, toward those who came on retreat this summer — including the little one in the jacket who laughed so heartily. 🦋

The great creative mantra

Then comes the central revelation of the session. The mantra that changes everything: ✨

“I create a space within me to welcome all bodily sensations. I create a space within me to welcome all emotions. I create a space within me to manifest great abundance. I create a space within me to understand that I am the one creating the space.”

The last mantra makes everyone laugh. It turns the mind back on itself. Because I am the creator of space itself. I am not inside it — I am it. 💖

Thigh stretches and the foot against the thigh

Right leg bent, left leg extended. Hands behind the head for the more flexible among us. The thigh stretches deliciously. Then right knee out to the right, foot touching the left thigh. Then we switch sides. The pelvis opens, the hip releases its old memories. 🌿

Conscious walking and the non-localized spin

Standing, blindfolded, we spin like a top — three or four turns, like the Five Tibetans. Then we stop. And there, we are somewhere in the non-localized. Visual reality has vanished. What remains is sound, what remains is the feet.

The walking begins. Forward. Backward. Sideways like a crab. Because in truth, I am not localized. I perceive from this body, but I am not this body. 🕊️

“I lovingly release everything that wants to make me believe I am localized. I lovingly release everything I have believed. I start again from zero.”

Alexandre scoops up Lise — the little cat wandering across the room — and laughs. The body starts dancing on its own. It becomes tantra. It stretches in the pure bliss of existing. 💞

Opening the eyes and keeping the altered state

On three, the eyes open. But the altered state of consciousness remains. The non-localized endures. Awareness stays as much in the feet as in what we see. That is the training: no longer being sucked in by the mind and by sight, staying anchored in all the sensations. 🌟

Notice that when it laughs, there’s no one left. It’s the being, the soul that laughs, not the person. It’s the real you that laughs.

I create a space within me to understand that I am the one creating the space, I create.

I lovingly release everything that wants to make me believe I am localized.

This article was originally written in French: Yoga Anatman : Créer l’espace en soi pour incarner sa vraie nature

This article is a synthesis of the Yoga Anatman session of September 11, 2026, a morning practice of awakening, transformation and realization.

There are mornings when you step into the practice the way you open a door. You don’t yet know what is waiting on the other side. You only know that something within you is asking to be welcomed ✨.

That morning, from the very first stretches, the body began to laugh. To feel bliss. To cry, too. As if all the inner parts that had stayed silent for so long had finally found a space to express themselves. 🌱

And then came this question, asked by one of the practitioners, which opened everything up: why am I afraid of love?

When a part of you is afraid of love

The answer was not the one anyone expected. It did not try to console. Instead, it turned the question upside down. 🕊️

Because it is never you who is afraid of love. It is a part, hidden away in the unconscious, that once felt separate. A part that suffered. A part that, in order to survive, believed it had to protect itself from something greater.

And what if the real work this morning was not to fight that part… but to speak to it with love? 💖

The morning’s teaching

Today’s elixir had a simple, almost obvious name: an elixir of peace. But behind that word, a whole teaching unfolded, like a veil being gently lifted. 🌿

It all began with a question sent in by Anne: that sentence so many beings carry in secret, “I’m afraid of love.” Alexandre then offered a truth that shifts everything: that sentence is false. It is not the “I” that is afraid of love. It is programs, conditioning, unconscious wounds that feel separate from creation.

“In fact, it’s a false sentence. What it really means is: I have wounds and traumas in my unconscious that don’t allow me to trust life, to trust love.”

Then the true question revealed itself: why do some parts of me believe they are separate? And the answer, offered with infinite tenderness: because they have suffered. 💫

From this understanding, the elixir sprang forth. Not a struggle, not a rejection, but a message of love addressed to all those inner parts that believe they are shut out of the world:

“To all my parts that believe they are separate from the world, from life and from creation: I love you, I welcome you just as you are. You are perfect. I’m sorry. Forgive me, I forgive you everything.”

Over the past two weeks, Alexandre shared, there has been a major realization: all suffering, all pain, all ignorance is nothing but the expression of a part that is suffering inside. A part at odds with life. 🦋

And so, everything is resolved through pacification. Not through struggle. Not through denial. Through welcome. Through forgiveness. Through this absolute sentence that speaks to the relative: I love you just as you are.

Next came a teaching of rare depth on the secondary gain of suffering. These parts, in their unconscious logic, tell themselves: if I no longer suffer, I no longer exist. They don’t want to disappear. They fear unification as if it were dissolution.

“Suffering only exists because it feels separate. And if suffering began to unify, it would disappear — and in the unconscious, it doesn’t want to disappear.”

Hence the mantra that followed, precise, surgical: I lovingly release everything that would have me believe I must suffer in order to exist. Then the luminous affirmation: I exist in peace, I exist in love. 🙏

And then, like a final seal, this deeply moving reminder: the outer world — the wars, the conflicts, everything we see on television — is nothing but the expression of humanity’s inner disharmonies. Peace begins within. Always. 🌟

Realizations during Yoga Anatman

There are mornings when the body wakes up before the mind. This morning was one of them. From the very first moments, something opened. ✨

The session began with an individual sound, that opening vibration which prepares the inner landscape. Then a massage of the cheeks, a stretch of the jaw. The smile, even before the posture. Laughter, even before the effort.

Alexandre then introduced a precious new feature: the possibility of sending him your personal news on his WhatsApp, so that you receive mantras during the session tailored to whatever you are going through at the moment. Anne and Valérie led the way. A practice that becomes made to measure. 🌱

Arms rose. And already, the surprise: “Oh my… it’s already bliss and we’ve barely started.” From this observation a founding mantra was born: I associate bliss with stretching.

“The more sensitive you become, the more connected to your physical body, the more you will live in permanent bliss. Yes, that’s what awaits you if you keep doing our yoga: permanent bliss in the micro-movements.”

Rising onto tiptoe: rooted like a stake

Next came the vertical rise. On tiptoe. Gaze straight ahead. Calves, thighs, glutes, abs — everything contracts. Alexandre passes on an essential image: I am planted like a stake. 🕊️

And this realization of formidable simplicity: the more you contract, the easier it gets. Without contraction, the posture collapses. Muscle strengthening is not an extra — it is the very condition of stability. It warms you up, it wakes you up, it’s perfect for winter.

A declaration of love to life

The head tilts back, the thumbs hook together. And there, the whole body begins to speak to life: I love you, I love you, I love you. 💖

Gratitude for being alive. One more morning. We’ve won. Then that deep silence, that thought offered to those who are no longer alive this morning. Tears come. They are welcomed. Carpe diem, the session whispers.

The inner masseur and welcoming emotions

Then comes the work on the neck. The right thumb, then the left thumb, massage the cervical vertebrae in small circles. A powerful mantra is offered: I surrender to my inner masseur, I surrender. 🌿

Then this key phrase: I become tantra. Life is going to become more interesting, more blissful, more sensational. Sensitive. Alexandre invites everyone to let the tears flow. To welcome every emotion. And he points out that after three months of practice, neck tension has all but disappeared in regular practitioners.

“If you still have stiffness, rigidity, do the yoga every day. After that, you won’t have any tension left, because you’ll release it as soon as it appears.”

The cross posture of surrender

Then comes total opening. Arms spread wide in a cross. The body leaning back. The posture of surrender. And once again that incantatory declaration to life, to the universe: I love you, I’m in love with you, I love everything you are. 💫

The hands rest gently on the lower back, like an energy healing on the lumbar area. Then the breathing of the Five Tibetans — in through the nose, out through the mouth — anchors this opening in the breath.

Growing sensitivity: the awakening of the body

Alexandre then shares a profound realization about how the practice has evolved. At first, years ago, it was simply well-being, flexibility, lightness. Then, little by little, a few postures became blissful. And today: everything is blissful. 🦋

“As if I had become sensitized. What does it do to me? What does it do to me? And it’s the welcome, the sensation, the surrender that will give you so much bliss with this yoga.”

There is an essential teaching here: awakening is not about fleeing the body. It is about becoming so sensitive, so empathic that you naturally create your own paradise. You choose an environment that suits you, kind, blissful. It’s as simple as that.

The frog and the breath of fire

The session then invited the frog posture, held for six minutes this morning, with a planned progression up to ten minutes a day. Gaze straight ahead, hands in namaste, back nice and straight. Breath of fire — I breathe out, the air comes in by itself. A disappearing. An active meditation. 🙏

For the bravest, the option of doing push-ups. For everyone, the mantra: I disappear, I surrender, I learn to let go of everything.

Cat, cow and dragon

Cat and cow then set the spine undulating, with remarkable suppleness this morning. Then the dragon posture, on the right and then on the left: palms in line with the outer heel, breath of fire, knee further back or less depending on the intensity you choose. 🌟

Between each side, a moment of rest lying on the belly. Melting into the mat. Letting everything go. Here Alexandre shares a precious subtlety about the out-breath:

“It may slip into apnea. That’s fine. Entering a zone of stillness. After the out-breath, it keeps letting go, infinitely. It lets go so much that it no longer breathes in.”

The inner child and the toes

Then came a moment of pure tenderness. A moment when the inner child took over again. Each toe, one after another, was stretched, massaged, loved. 💞

Oh my little toe, I love you. The second, the third, the fourth, the big toe. Then all the toes at once, legs in the air, like a baby at play. It trembles, it laughs, it cries.

This sequence carries a hidden but essential teaching: I love all my parts. None is too small to receive love. None is unworthy of attention. Even the little toe determines our balance.

Conscious walking and the non-localized Non-Self

The session ended with a conscious walk, blindfolded, in a living silence. A few turns first — here Alexandre mentions the Sufi dance exercises. Then free walking: forwards, backwards, turned around, sideways. 🌅

And there, a major realization emerged, directly continuing the previous Sunday’s Anatman Odyssey:

“I am the creator of everything, of the whole. I came to incarnate in order to play. Even though I feel in this body, in the feet, I am not only the feet. I am not in the body. What I am is not localized.”

This is the realization of the non-localized Non-Self. I am the whole room. I am the consciousness that contains the sensations, not the other way around. Alexandre spoke of Bruce Lee’s initiation, that ability martial artists have to sense space without bumping into anything, without touching, in a non-local perception.

Then, eyes closed, blindfold removed, using the light as a guide. Then eyes open, while staying present to the physical body. Walking happens without an “I”. No need for an “I” in order to walk. It walks all by itself. 🕊️

The session closed with this invitation: keep this presence throughout the day. Body awareness. Feeling. For as long as possible, whatever you are doing.

Suffering only exists because it feels separate. And if it were to unify, it would disappear.

The more sensitive you become, the more connected to your physical body, the more you will live in permanent bliss.

I am the creator of everything. What I am is not localized. Walking happens without an I.
