This is a real photo of my cat tonight at the end of a 20 minutes DD yoga practice! He is soundly asleep- something that usually happens to me at the end of most sessions!

At 53, my main health priority is managing stress, which is why my daily practices emphasize stretching and relaxation.
But a lot of you have been asking what I actually do for exercise! So I've shared two new standing flows over the past two Sundays. These are low-impact routines that include traditional movements from yoga and qigong, as well as research-backed exercises for lymphatic drainage and vagal tone.
These new videos are a great way to reset energy and move stiffness out of the body. No equipment needed, just stand up and flow!

The practice of Yin became a quiet harbor for me, mind and body settling into the long patience that healing asked after my fall. Breath played its keen role, a slow tide moving through tender places, teaching me how to listen to its guidance and soften without collapsing.
Each inhale lifted me; each exhale loosened the strain. Staying tuned to every small signal let me tend the hurt while letting the rest of me drift in gentle motion, a kind of moving stillness. Protecting one tender place made the whole body brighter to me, each part speaking to the others, each movement revealing how we are one woven thing.
🙏 You are appreciated, Devi as guide, teacher, and friend in the soft, luminous way friendship appears on the mat.

Hi Devi,
My question is about Saddle. It really hurts my foot and I end up focusing on that vs the stretch. Can you give me some pointers? Thanks in advance ❤️

I really love the Sutras Devi! Today's practice gave me a way to transition into saddle, thank you.
