I used what I will term the chakra breath You introduced during the beginning of the practice.  With each pose thereafter I move from root to crown, then back.  My breath coursing through my spine, letting the breath deepen each prose, gently and reverently.  High winds and gusts were the backdrop as they swirled outside, my breath inside.  I read a radiance sutra after each practice.  Opening this book today's to 44. 

Rivers of power flowing everywhere.

Fields of magnetism relating everything.

This is your origin. This is your lineage.

The current of creation is right here,

Coursing through subtle channels,

Animating this very form.

Follow the gentle touch of life,

Soft as the footprint of an ant,

As tiny sensations open to vastness.

Power sings as it flows,

Electrifies the organs of sensing,

Becomes liquid light,

Nourishes your entire being.

Celebrate the boundary

Where streams join the sea,

Where body meets infinity.

Your response to this practice spoke to me, I was looking for guidance, so I will be heading to the mat shortly to experience it myself.  I noticed it was provided on my last birthday...enough with the signs!  I'm on my way...

Thanks for sharing your experience! 🦋✨

Yes!  Keep honoring that need for stillness, your body and mind will thank you.

That’s the heart of Yin isn't it.  Creating space to be held, to nurture yourself, and to reconnect with that deep well of peace within.

There’s something special about returning to a favorite pose.

It's amazing how stillness and breath can help release even the most stubborn tension.

So true, I'm so glad the session gave you what you needed, gentle movement, deep release, and a moment to recalibrate. And with the view and birdsong, nature provided the perfect touch.

Beautiful! Sitting in wide seiza without forcing is exactly the Yin way, letting your body open gradually. Combining that with Swan or Pigeon backbends is a lovely way to balance release and expansion. That gorgeous view can really deepen the experience!
