Putting them to use

Since I have realized what the Gunas are, I have put them into practice in certain areas to enhance or better my life. One example is at work. I am a collection agent and deal with people who are not in their most "giving" state, on a daily basis. I've started to notice which type of people are more Rajastic or Tamasic, and then I can try to counteract that energy with my words and delivery. This helps me collect better and allows me to connect to people to a certain degree.

Back to the Basics

We learned about the three Gunas. The first one is Rajas which is the spiral and forward & back movement. Rajas is energetic and it reminds me of someone who constantly has something to say, they are always going. The second is Tamas, which we related to Eeyore a lot in class. The energy is focused, planted and includes upward & downward motion. The last Guna is Sattva. Sattvic movement is from side to side. Sattva brings peace & centering. It is the balance of life and brings harmony.
