We are summoned to be more caring and present with our breath from this respiratory virus and the other stresses of this unique time. Yoga has special tools to develop our respiratory capacity which we will explore in this workshop. Combined with asana (yoga postures) and inward attention, yoga breathing practices (pranayama) are uniquely suited to refine our physiology as well as focus the mind.
You will learn more about your respiratory system from information as well as through yoga practice. This workshop will combine breath and movement in asana to prepare for seated pranayama in several short practices which explore all aspects of the breath.
You can use the breath to energize or to relax your system, so we will learn a short practice for each purpose which includes five postures to prepare for a five-minute pranayama practice.
And, take the challenge…of doing a ten-minute practice daily for two weeks until we reconvene for an hour to hear of your experiences and reinforce the practices.
You will receive written copies of two short practices and access to recordings of the practices to continue your exploration.
This includes a one hour follow-up session to repeat the practices and see how it’s working for you.
