Tagged a favorite, I loved how you took me on this exploratory journey.  "One with the Devi", is the best I can describe it.  Mindfully working within each pose, so many compliments to you along the way.  The gradual work with half saddle was ... wow ... amazing!  Poses in my own, wonderful way.  The music brought it all together.  At times I was wondering if I was hearing ships signaling in the bay or just deep vibrations in my head.  You are the best part of so many days, this another...

Currently I am reading "Navigating Liminal Realms: Psychonavigational Skills for Lucid Dreaming, Trance Journeys, and Altered States" by Norma and Nisha Burton.  I am also reading "The Tibetan Book of the Dead" by W. Y. Evans-Wentz.  It is "immaculately rendered in English both graceful and precise." Translated with the close support of leading contemporary masters.

Scanning the practices "Exquisite" catch my eyes so I gave it a try.   Very relax, sown on the ground routine with ample time to work with the breath in each pose.  Loved sutra #4 finish which reminded me of the very special draw you had for me in the beginning.  I like "mounting" a half saddle, starting on the side.  It gave me lots of space to adjust.

I decided to do this practice without any props of cushions.  I took more care in the positions and micro adjusted where needed.   Easy practice to follow and time flew by.  Tight target areas were met with gradual  relaxation.  Loved it...

Today I brought the tensions of the previous day, that of stacking a cord of wood, so there were lots of areas that both needed and loved the attention.  I must have intuitively selected this practice the night before.  I did feel a soreness in one knee while working with the half saddles, then recalled it was due to a fall when I had lost my step on the pile, so I was more mindful of what was needed.  So much goodness for the shoulders and neck at the practice start.  The emotions I had brought to the mat, found no place there.  I think you know that when I bring my palms down in from of me at the end we share the same smile.  🙏

Repeated this one from earlier this month.  Great 35 minutes when my morning is a bit rushed.  Always learning to deepen my poses.  Full saddle options much appreciated.

Found deeper stretches in the poses with added comfort using the bolster.  The side twists really hit a new and needed area in my hips.  Figure four and windshield wipers felt better as there was less strain staying in position while stretching.  

So many moments woven into this practice.  Meditative and of such great release...  I hadn't noticed the length of this practice, then found I loved every second.  Thank you Devi...

I start the video on my iPhone, then Screen Mirror to my Apple TV box which is connected to the TV.  After practice I work with options on my iPhone like Save (to playlists) and turn off Watched.  I return to my Mac and use the website to add comments as I hate typing on my tiny iPhone keyboard.

Saddle on the left side ok, saddle on the right better.  Liked the slower pace and getting deep into the stretches.  Laying on crossed arms is a good challenge for me.  I find it really makes me aware of the geometry change in my frame from that old injury.  But You've taught me how to take it slow and adjust.  Not just on the mat, but in life...
