Commented on Calming Yin Stretch

31 Dec 08:16

What a wonderful way to close the year. A thick fog softened the world, leaving only the silhouettes of trees as I let my breath weave through each movement. The music swayed in perfect harmony with the practice.Today reminded me that simply finding the target is enough, over time, the poses deepen and take on new meaning. Puppy Pose has always been a tight challenge for me, yet this morning I felt myself move more deeply into my shoulders than ever before. I’ve found real healing in Yin. And I cherish every morning I spend on the mat.

I loved the strong core focus today, and felt real healing opening through my shoulders. That familiar tingle and gentle inching of release was right there. The flow was beautifully balanced, active yet contemplative, and it invited me into deeper exploration in such a rewarding way.

"Pleasing" Using the breath in poses, letting it travel up and down my spine.  Allow each breath it time to deepen the pose, to sense the effect.  Meditative...

Lots packed into a few minutes. Felt great afterwards. Going to return to this one often.

Smooth with time passing quietly by.   Great time to stretch deeper...and the breath moving, easing...  Beautiful way to start the day.

The first gift I opened today was your practice Devi.  Body, mind and Spirit awakened again as are with so many mornings.  I listened to the essay by Paul Grilley on the Nei Jing Tu last night and as you guided my breath, I knew the peace, I felt the energy. Thank you for adding something good to our world.

Fantastic time on the mat.  Each breath a compliment to the pose.  Saddle and half saddle my way, felt so good.  Care taken to be mindful of my knees and making micro adjustments to move attention to the desired target area.

Perfect bliss and peace. You have such a gift Devi and one you give away each day.

I found thoughts in meditation pondering how I could give the gift of time to you and to others. It comes down to appreciating the moments cherished, realizing how fragile life is. You give so much of yourself. Take some of that time for yourself.
