So wonderful to see recent returnees and new faces in class.
Once again we went back to learning and unlearning our bodies way of holding ourselves and focusing on our alignment. A body in good alignment is like a beautiful sunflower reaching high up towards the sun with its roots strongly grounding down in the soil.
Keeping our spines supple by daily practicing the 6 movements of the spine will aid in the longevity of a healthy life. Empty coat sleeves has two of the six movements Begin with your feet hip distance apart. Start a shoulder movement rotation side to side (R-L) the ams begin to move as a result of it, hence like empty coat sleeves. With a slight bend and softness in the knees, continue to pick up speed allowing your floppy arms to slap around your body and your hips to start to rotate as well. Progress with inhales and forceful exhales through the mouth with or without a HA! Lastly start to lift the heel as you twist the opposite direction with your upper body. Rotation around your spine helps to bring oxygen to all the valuable connections in this part of the body which in turns filters out to every cell that makes up this amazing vehicle we are embodied in.
Sharing my passion for the moment.
When we care for ourselves it makes this world such a sweeter place to share.
May this week be filled with love and kindness!
Here's to a beautiful holiday.
Shanti
See ya next time ...
On a yoga journey to better understand myself and to live more balanced in my authentic being. To be grounded and always growing, to share with and care about others while living the flow of life. That is my inquiry!
