Yoga is the great joy of my life!
I also find it to be an excellent remedy for the various states of distress the body-mind-emotions-nervous system can experience from time to time.
Recently I was chatting with a colleague, who shared that sometimes when presenting at work, their breath would seize, their heart felt like it skipped a few beats, and a feeling of impending bodily shutdown felt looming. What a frightening experience!
The tools of Yoga – remembering “Yoga” is an umbrella term for the path to complete and utter integration and Union – includes yoga poses (stretching), breathing exercises, mindful focus, and muscular and nervous system release, are an antidote to our modern times.
For many, life can be stressful, worrying, uncertain and a challenge to navigate. This modern life we find ourselves in is not always kind to our nervous systems.
And yet, if we know how to take care of ourselves more deeply, attunement, relaxedness, ease, confidence and comfortability can be ours.
Yoga is medicine.
To be united is to be less fragmented.
To be centered feels strong.
To feel aligned feels powerful.
For those with an existing practice, keep practicing… at every moment you have an opportunity!
And to those who might like some guidance, Term 4 online Yoga begins this week.
It's 2 x recorded classes to your inbox each week (1 x 60 min and 1 x 30 min) to be practiced in your own time. Let me know if you’d like to join and we can practice together!
Wishing you well.
May your nervous system be calm and may life feel not only manageable, but joyous!
