What a great practice!  During these moves and direction I realized something a year of yin had showed me.  I mention my shoulder injury of the past at times, but I now realized after finding so much movement within it, that for many years my good shoulder had been favored for so many tasks, making it also in need of care.  It's getting there, and learning to let the tension go, and deepening into these poses is working its magic.  Meditation on the mat with my body and mind, that's the moment I find the Devine.

I stumbled upon your article "why yin Yoga is not enough" so searched on "arms" and found some practices.  I usually work my upper body daily, caretaker of my acre and firewood duties, etc.  But had noticed that during the dormant time of winter I was feeling weaker in my upper body.  I admit that I do yin every morning, but will now add your 10 minute routine or replace it every other with a yin-yang sequence.  I'm sure as spring arrives I can move more back into my yin daily routine, but this was a real eye opener for me.  Huffing and puffing along with you was invigorating and my balance good for the most part.  Even followed you in some of the more challenging moves.  You're my favorite part of the day.

Short one time so I jumped to this practice, and boy am I glad.  Loved really getting into working with the strap and my focus on your directions.  Up the wall made it easy to deepen the stretches so I liked that too.  The picture doesn't seem to match the practice I did, but I started it again and saw the we were inside. 😀

I’m really starting to love frog pose and all the slight variations within it. Reflecting on the sensation, even hours later, has me realizing I have been holding a tension there for decades. 

Great routine for the pelvic area and hips. Gentle while also challenging. Learning the props needed for my structure, so important. 

After a day of preparing an area for wildflowers I knew this would be the best recovery practice for me.  I am learning to keep the props nearby physical geometry calls for them so often.  The natural light was wonderful.  I even observed the shadows of the plants when the lighting was mentioned.

Enjoyed this long one, but need to remember to grab more blocks for the propped dragon.  Not quite as to the ground as Devi.  Great stretches and relaxation.  Did my half saddles my way and settled for sitting back on legs for the full saddle pose.  Feeling more freedom in my body these days.  Practice and patience the key.

Started this series this morning and really loved the detail explanations of the hip components.  Surprised how I am starting to enjoy frog pose more and more.  Adjusting in half-dragon found my spot.  I noticed that the only area comment is on this series homepage.

This practice for me was marked by much deeper, conscience breaths into the target areas.  Focus on instruction led me into such a richer experience.  I love it when I find surprises to greet me in the morning.  There's a sensation I am discovering reaching new points.  Insight verse 154 followed my practice, "each breath is adoration..."
