This mantra guides a mindful approach to yoga, transforming your practice into a moving meditation. As you transition through postures, slow down and savor the first sensation of a stretch. Honor your body’s natural resistance; pause and allow it to yield before deepening the pose. Hold each stretch for an extended period, allowing at least 90 seconds to 2 minutes to fully arrive in the posture. Savor this time, fostering a loving connection with your body.
Recognize your body as your lifelong companion, and treat it with respect throughout your practice. Yoga isn’t just about physical postures – it’s about cultivating awareness of the interconnected fascia system that weaves throughout your being. This awareness extends beyond the yoga mat, translating into a deeper understanding of your place in the world. As you cultivate this connection on the mat, you’ll discover a profound sense of interconnectedness – from the cellular level to the vastness of the cosmos.
Namaste
