Episode 33: Twisting Mandala Gentle Flow
Description
This is a 65-minute Gentle Flow. Some practices leave you connected to your very being, and this is such a flow. We begin slowly, developing a strong connection to the current state of the body and to the breath, opening the hips and the sides of the body. We travel front to back on the mat, mandala style, and explore the length and strength in the lateral seams of the body in both modified and classic standing postures. Each round of mandala up-levels the postures offered. Taking advantage of the length and suppleness in the sides of the body, we explore accessible and more demanding twists. The bhav, the mood, of this class is meditative, well-paced, and peace-promoting. Challenging postures and transitions are just an offering, allowing you to take exactly what you need. The unrushed, luxurious wind-down invites you to revel in the mindful presence you have created. If you are looking for a soulful, well-rounded, breath-centric flow, this class is for you. Enjoy!
