Perfect for anyone who is after mindful movement to find connection to your body and focus of your mind. This practice is very popular by my students. It is best to practice a few days in a row to familiarise yourself with the movement so that the focus can stay drawn inwards. Perfect for an early morning practice before seated meditation. This practice is inspired by various teachings I have received from Shiva Ra and her beautiful partner Demetri Velisarius, whom I'm so grateful for to be my teachers. ———————- May I be a guardian for those who need protection A guide for those who’ve lost their way A bridge for those desiring to travel to the further shores A ship for those with oceans to cross A healing medicine - full of kindness and compassion A lamp in the darkness A refuge for those who seek shelter Planting the seed, to rise up as the awakened one May my heart be a vase of plenty My life be a tree of miracles And for the multitude of living beings May I provide Sustenance and awareness Until all are awakened and free ———————- Based on Shanti Deva’s prayer as taught to me by Demetri Velisarius

Our breath and how we breathe has a big impact on how we feel. And even though we breathe all day every day, most of the time we are not aware of the quality of our breath. This practice helps you to bring awareness to how you breathe and the benefits of bringing awareness to your breathing. In this video I explain the different areas in our body in which we can direct our breath, you'll get an understanding of how you can use the breath to focus your mind and how your breath can help you change how you feel. Breathing techniques included are belly breath, Ujjaji breath, and full yogic breath. If you are uncomfortable to sit on the floor please use a block or a chair. This practice is suitable and beneficial for everyone. ~~~ TEACHER TRAINING AND RETREATS ~~~ If you like more information about my teacher training programs or retreats I’m teaching you can find details here: https://www.yoga4you.online/ ~~~ PRACTICE WITH ME MORE ~~~ I have created a beautiful online program that will help you to stay motivated and learn not only about yoga poses but to find a deeper connection within yourself, to heal and get stronger on a mental-emotional level using 11 goddess and 7 hindu god archetypes.
