Found an awesome article called "10 Tips to Get the Most Out of Your Yoga Class" from Yoga International. It is a very truthful list of ways we can approach our yoga classes and find our classes becoming more valuable.
Here is a brief listing: 1. Come to class free of expectations - expectations for the class and of your body 2. Have an intention - We leave time during centering for setting your intention 3. Free yourself of distractions - do your best 4. Disclose physical limitations to the instructor - I keep a notebook of what people share with me 5. Honor your own inner teacher 6. Listen to your body - Heard this before?!! 7. Leave your phone at the door - please! 8. Bring your own stuff - matt, blanket etc. 9. Breathe - we talk breathing during each class 10. Be grateful - be thankful for what is! Click HERE for the full article. Let me know what you think of these ideas!

When we think of meditation, we often think of sitting on the floor in a cross legged or lotus position. Meditation can also be done in a chair. It is important that you are in a comfortable position to compliment your meditation practice.
Yoga Journal has a video that guides us into meditation in a chair. Give it a try! We have been practicing Nadi Shodhanna or Alternate Nostril Breathing in our classes this week. It is a great breath practice to help clear our minds.
I found a video and website with a great descriptions of Nadi Shodhanna. Enjoy! |
