SATURDAY'S PRACTICE

7/11/2015

"Many people only concern themselves with health when it’s gone. They lack the interest or the ability to stay in touch with the state of their various systems, until it’s too late and breakdown occurs. Doing yoga can alert you when your reservoir of energy first begins to go down, as well as give you the means to replenish it. The preventative power of yoga is greatly aided by the fact that yoga builds sensitivity to internal feedback, helping you detect early warnings. You can then, through yoga, learn to heal yourself long before breakdown occurs." Joel Kramer

Use your practice this morning to listen to feedback from your body as you experience each of the asanas, or postures. Where do you find stability and ease? Do you sense a discomfort in any asana? Does realignment bring ease? Remember to use your breath as a gauge as well as a tool to engage the body and mind in this feedback system.
