Watch the breath - and - Change your environment

This week we find flexibility and calmness by exploring the breath and its effect on movement.

Candles and soothing music (at the end of class) enhance the relaxation experience. Create your own environment at home and in the office to feel happier and more content. For example, use candles, incense, pictures, photos, statues, screen savers, or even a drawer (at work) of special items that uplift your spirits. This is a great way to alleviate mild depression or general anxiety.

For insomnia we're working with the passive exhale and bringing focus to the breath with an awareness of the role of the abdominal diaphragm, intercostals (between each rib), and the abdominals (for an active exhale).

Namaste,
