To kickstart your practice, you can search Google or YouTube for articles, videos and books on the practice. You may also wish to sign up for my Yoga for Grief Chakra Immersion (free until the end of Jan 2024), or get both this and the Chair Yoga For Grief on the Guided - with Keziah Gibbons - links in profile. Remember, listen to your body, prioritise gentle movements, and explore at your own pace. DM me or comment below if you have any questions. I’m here to support you. #yogagrief #homepractice #selfcare #healingjourney #griefsupport #findyourcalm

When the muse doesn't show up, be your own... My latest story for Medicinal Media is about how to summon your creative flow through yoga. Thank you to #HariKaur & Connie Habash for generously sharing their wise insights! "Within each of us lies a natural imaginative voice. Some choose to follow its call more than others, but that doesn't make it any less present. The term flow state conjures up images of an internal wellspring bubbling with potential. In this fluid space, time takes on its own pace and magic becomes real. Some view it as the elusive muse — a struggle to find and hold. For many people, yoga can help do just that.  The ancient discipline forms a union between body and mind in a moving meditation, also referred to as flow. And science recognizes myriad connections between these two flows; a study of 92 MBA students published on ScienceDirect discovered that 20 minutes of yoga a day significantly improved divergent thinking — the way the mind processes thoughts when it generates free-flowing creative ideas. Whether it's a painter mixing the perfect shade of midnight blue or a novelist confronting the daunting blank page, “yoga allows you to activate the observing mind to see possibility that was hidden from you when you try to control others,” according to master Kundalini instructor, Hari Kaur, who is also a co-founder of Hari NYC and co-author of A Woman’s Book of Yoga and A Woman’s Book of Meditation. As yoga awakens the creative mind, “It strengthens your nervous system to hold and pursue new perspectives and ideas that may have previously gone unseen or felt impossible,” adds Kaur..." #Yoga #creativity

Join me Friday at 7:30 pm for a gentle yoga practice that will not have you in awkward and painful poses, but will help you gently release stored trauma anxiety and/or depression in your body. Yoga is not something only for super flexible people, it's not something only for meditation gurus, and it's not a fad. Yoga cones from the Sanskrit Yuj which means to join or unite. Yoga unites the mind, body, and spirit by connecting breath with movement. This calm connection sends a signal to the brain that we are calm and safe here and now, turning off the fight/flight system and engaging the rest/digest/calm system. We all store tension in our body and Friday's Healing Yoga Session will help you gently release the stored, uncomfortable emotions, providing you with a sense of inner strength and connection.
