I woke wanting something gentle and saw your post.  Heading to the mat now.🙂

It's so wonderful to have time on the mat.  To find a peace in that which we can control.  The longer poses allow me to move carefully and deeper. I read a sutra after each practice, each day, but today I realized I simply forgot.  I think the message was carried in the energy within my body and mind...

Always enjoy (and benefit) from these gentle, lengthy poses, that allow the mind to explore deeper the senses while setting the busier side aside.  I like it when the music is soft and not as intrusive it can sometimes be.  This was perfect.

I did this, this morning and will remember it for future use.  Thanks Devi

Loved this practice.  Working the breath during poses has really energized and opened growth.  Today a friend released a single, "Sit With It" by Micaela Kingslight.  A few verses...you get the idea.  Love the timing of the universe.

My body my temple my instrument
My body my temple my instrument
talks to me
and tells me
what I need to know

I finally got around to this one.  Loved the long, lingering, holds in each pose.  Practiced a breathing pattern throughout to move energy in and out as I depended each pose.  Devi's breath ritual she threw in fit perfectly and was a nice surprise.

I put a lot more slant on my half saddles and use plenty of props on full.  I'm more or less gradually working on sitting upright in the half saddle poses.
