Still make the plans. But, practicing with a simple breath can help us accept and be open for when life doesn’t go as planned. #yoga #practice #exhale #plans #plansforfall #nonattachment #yogidara #acceptance #openness #breathe #alltheplans #life #relaxthejaw

Instead of scrolling past things you want or maybe

Instead of scrolling past things you want or maybe can’t have, what if you paused for a moment and focused on things you like about yourself? What we focus on grows. ✨ #innerriches #youshine #phonedown #namethree #keepgoing #yogidara

Sometimes we can get #lost in a more complex pose.

Sometimes we can get #lost in a more complex pose. But, it helps if we reconnect with a form that we have already practiced in a more #basic pose.

Similarly, in #challenging life situations like an argument, a difficult decision, a big change; #reconnecting to basic cues can help us find our way. Relax the shoulders, soften the jaw, relax the tongue, soften the eyes, and notice the #breath.

Watch the wave come in, and the wave go out. Breathe in. Breathe out. Bring the breath in, and let it go. Just like that. #breathe #ocean #waves #yoga #yogidara #inandout #breathein #breatheout #letgo

Practicing your #sidecrow pose —> work on openin

Practicing your #sidecrow pose —> work on opening your side body and deepening your twists; practice pressing your hands into the floor while you pull in and engage the core. Use props under the hips to get the feel of it. Look forward and breathe. This pose gets you in touch with your #corestrength and #personalpower, and asks you to open up to #change with a #twist 🪶🔆 #yoga #yogidara

Yoga practice can invite us to really explore what

Yoga practice can invite us to really explore what our bodies can tell us. First, we learn to listen to them - ‘oh, that feels bad, maybe I shouldn’t do that even though others in the class are.’ Then, when we pay attention, we begin to hear more and more, unpacking how years of movement patterns have affected the development of our muscles and bones. This awareness can lead us to designing ways to reinvent ourselves. I’ve been working together with @mindynagel at @collegehillppt who knows functional anatomy so well to uncover ways to do just this.

I did this drawing while remembering what it felt like to hold my son who has profound cerebral palsy. While he’s too big to hold like this anymore (17 years old now), this was how I held his body for years - pressing my left shoulder forward to resist the powerful extension of his spine and relax his muscle tone, reshaping my body to be able to bring him comfort.
