Morning Dharma - Jan 26 2023 #8

“You are everywhere, forever free…the single witness of all things.”  Today’s class is psoas focused — a long floor sequence to lengthen and strengthen core muscles. We end with a warrior 3 flow and a meditation on witnessing through listening.

Morning Dharma - December 13 2022

How is your heart feeling today? And your hips? Today’s class will give you the space and time to listen — to see what wisdom your body is trying to tell you. We start with a slow-moving floor practice and move into a guided meditation followed by a gentle psoas stretching flow.

Core recovery! I don’t know about you but I’m really feeling all of that ab work from Tuesday. Today, we’ll recover with some gentle core stretches and move into more strengthening poses.

It’s an ab day! This is our last class in our November gratitude series and we go out putting some fire in our bellies! This guilt-free, gratitude-for-food class offers several core strengthening sequences to ignite our digestion and a guided meditation to help us ease back into our mindfulness practice.

Morning Dharma - Sept 20 2022

Inspired by a talk by Ram Dass about karma yoga (yoga of action) we will try to move through a familiar practice of sun salutations with a deeper sense of presence and fresh eyes. In meditation, we’ll remind ourselves that we need not compartmentalize our practice from our everyday life. Every action and interaction is an opportunity to tune in deeply to our lived experience. With each task, may we do so with great intention and compassion.

With fall quickly approaching, I often start to feel a bit melancholy – a bit of sadness saying goodbye to summer. I tend to love all of the seasons to a point but east coast autumns are probably my favorite. Today, we embrace the melancholy and start out slow but move into a standing flow. I’ll lead you through several body scan and mindfulness practices with a focus on listening. We end with invigorating breath work that will hopefully help you start your day with a joyous heart.

In today’s class, we build on the twist sequences from Tuesday, continue strengthening the legs with chair pose, and practice watching our thoughts during a guided meditation. But we start in a slow, nurturing child pose sequence. Hopefully, this class will leave you feeling loose, limber, and ready to fully experience the day!

July 14 - Trust #4

The side body stretches felt so good on Tuesday that we decided to continue them today! We combine them with a warrior II flow and throw in some ab work so they don’t feel left out. 

Side body stretches! Today we start with a guided meditation to check in to our hearts, pause, and listen to our own wisdom — truths that are often drowned out by day-to-day overstimulation — and then end with a side-stretching flow and psoas stretch cool down.
