Welcome to September!
In August, we practiced yoga nidra (sleep) using imagery to relax the body. We are often unaware of our own inner tension. Thoughts and worries may revolve in the mind, even while you sleep. Yoga Nidra can help you release tensions in the body, emotions, and mind, allowing for complete relaxation. If you are interested in exploring further, "Yoga Nidra" by Swami Satyananda Saraswati offers some great nidra methods.
This month we focus on transitions in yoga practice.
September Focus : Transitions in Yoga Practice
Do you ignore the moments in between poses?
Do you rush through them or completely tune them out?
We often avoid uncomfortable places in practice and rush towards the final pose. The journey in yoga practice, as in life, is just as important as the destination. Slowing down and paying closer attention during transitions will help bring focus back to the journey.
This month, we will explore gliding slowly and mindfully between poses building strength and structural integrity.
