Loved the exploration, particularly Panda and Rainbow Twists.  In an extremely rare occasion I missed a day of practice yesterday so this was just what was needed.  ❤️ I am also near complete on a Gratitude Garden on my lot, where I'll dedicate a candle for you Devi.

Thank you for taking me to such a beautiful place. 

How to make a perfect practice:   Take one hour of yin.  Add equal portions of Devi and yourself.  Follow directions. Adjust as needed.  Blend carefully.  Meditate until smooth and pliable.  Enjoy a tasty day! 😋

Wow!  I really have a new and growing appreciation of sphinx pose.  Loved all the variations and felt a new, energy in my tailbone.  My root wa buzzing.  Always learning to better relax and deepen within.  Tadpoles into twisted were great.  That smile of yours is a great send-off into the day.

I was looking for a little oasis and found this jewel in the desert of my life.  Thoughts were bombarding my mind but finally gave way to Devi's magic.  I was able to really get down into the poses and knew my dog-walking cardio would round out my morning requirements.  I read the final sutra today, #112.  I'll take my journey down the Insight Verses next and see where that lead me, or where I lead me...

I like to let words find me on the mat.  For this it was "sensual."  I found so much deeper movement in these gradual moves and motion, the beauty in this day expanding around me.  I think we slip unknowingly at times into a higher realm.  Today I was there.  Let me linger.  Sutra #111 this morning, followed by sutra #26.  Yes I am home Devi, right where I belong...

You might want to dub over this one. 😊 Possibly when you start your next live session you can run a sound check with us.  I did enjoy the poses, but listening was difficult.

Thank you for caring for my soul this night. 🙏

Second time in this meditation and I dosed off within minutes. Your voice and guidance seems to trigger an almost instant peace. 🕊️

I approached the mat with a faint attitude towards practice. Nonetheless, I began each pose, quickly moving into the tightness, then relaxing, and finding tension elsewhere, which I explored. I noticed my body lacked the usual little spots of soreness I've felt recently, wondering if it might have been arthritis, but today they were gone. The practice flew by, and at the end, I felt a new peace, or perhaps an old one revisited. It was damp and rainy outside as I walked the dogs, but inside there was a glow, maybe even a radiance, as everything felt balanced and in sync. So, the next time that diminished attitude finds me, I will remember this day and not let it take over.
