I needed something short before I left for an early morning doctors appointment. This was a perfect fit. I could sense myself wanting to stay in the poses longer 😁

I’m in!

Crashing waves of life, broken as this practice would have none of it.  My mind in tandem with the body knows what I needs.  Felt like I was in the eye of the storm, just where I needed to be.  Thank you Devi...

Very in the moment spent with these long poses.  I've found my place of peace....

I enjoyed (and benefited) from the extra, balanced, depth I found in the wall poses.  I noticed how tight I can get myself during my day to day activities (physical and mental). Another Favorite I wasn't expecting and one I needed.  As I often say, the best part of the day...

There is an effortless awareness that greeted me during this practice.  My body found tender spots from tree planted yesterday.  The soreness near instantly faded away to the now familiar tingle of healing.  Each pose could easily lasted longer.  The "simple pose" of sitting with legs crossed was notably more stable and my back felt strengthened, my tailbone fitting well upon the mat.  25 minutes of peace....

Mellow movement just right for this day.  Learning better all the time to relax into the poses and examine the goodness there.  

Great way to pull it all together. Loved the multi screen variation shots. The quiet space was unique too. Loved the whole series.

This was Down Dog archetype, just mislabeled.  I really like working my  neck, upper back and shoulders.  A perfect response to the two holes I spent time digging yesterday, preparing for some trees.   

Two years ago, I never imagined I’d mark Saddle as a favorite. My very first question to Devi was actually, “What if I can’t do Saddle?” Even now, my version is still supported with plenty of props, but I can mindfully settle into both half and full variations.

There were long stretches when I chose other shapes instead, yet over time my body shifted. Each time I revisited Saddle, there was just a little more ease, a little more space.

It turns out Saddle wasn’t impossible after all, it just asked me to practice patience as much as the pose itself.
