Attune Yoga Long Practices
•
1h 2m
When tuning into ourselves, we might tend to “direct over” what is surfacing in our moment-to-moment experience, whether that be trying to redirect an uncomfortable mental/emotional state or "direct over" what is in the body (summoning length instead of collapse, ease instead of constriction). What happens instead when we are able to hold space to “be with” ourselves, like listening in a conversation? Something new may arise spontaneously, including the possibility of things like length and ease! This is the underlying theme of the practice, as we weave our way through movements including: spirals, twists, lunge with twist, wide leg forward fold, W2, extended side angle, goddess, dancer with closed knee variation, and seated forward fold variations.
