For me it's a blend that finds me for the day. Deep stretching and inner stillness always.

Tagged this as a Favorite this morning.  Because I am mindfully improving on knowing my body my mind helping me fine-tune poses, especially those which challenge me.  I like having options with saddle as one day may be different from the next.  The sequence worked well for me and I like how I can easily incorporate moments of meditation into the stillness of a pose.

In this fast paced world I encourage everyone to take the time, and give it time, for Yin to work its magic.

I'll do a dragon as long as you want me to...😁. I followed the practice a week behind, which is how I suspect I will others.  Loved the attention to the feet.

After a deep, restful night, this practice was such an incredible blend of motion into morning.  Gentle moves to many poses of which I am conscience of knee care, yet all performed.  I felt the heat, the energy come on and build, then settle back down.  Such a beautiful embrace of Life you have learned to share....

Love finding the poses I once dreaded, now tools for my body and mind.  I read the news early today, so the start of the ride was bumpy, but slowly I came around.  It's odd how time is hard to judge on the mat, but the length of the poses were good.  The mediation and sutra were just what I needed at the end,  I now match your duration and I harmonize as well.  🙏

My own sutra for today #89 ended with "The One Who Has Always Been, Who has seen much worse than this, Is still here."  I'll take my cue from "The One."

Deepening into the stretches...that's what I like about the longer holds.  I do my quad stretches (currently) just bending my legs up without grabbing or using a strap.  I am still finding the target area more and more without impacting my knees that seem to be sensitive to this pose.

After a long trek, to a from a concert, this was the perfect morning wake up call.  Love "noticing" how my body and mind feel during each pose.  Thank you Devi!
