We hold so much tension and stress in our body.  It is one of the places we store repressed material, blocks, distress, etc.  Often meditation and other spiritual exercises can't reach this material stored in the body nearly as well as physical yoga can.  I have found that meditation followed by Yogananda's 39 Energization Exercises is an extremely  powerful combination on the path of awakening.  You can go to YouTube and search Yogananda's Energization Exercises for instruction. Other types of releasing yoga are briefly mentioned in this podcast.

These podcasts are here to support your personal path of awakening whatever that might be. I feel they are most powerful when listened to in sequence from podcast one forward because each is built on the last. Though they, also, all stand on their own. If anything does not resonate, please disregard it and follow your heart. All my podcasts and website are free. Enjoy!

Though I am a psychotherapist, and these podcasts are offered to be spiritually helpful, they are not psychotherapy. If psychotherapy is ever needed, please reach out to a psychotherapist.
