#117 For the Love of Vinyasa Yoga (60min)
Manage episode 291243155 series 2645134
If you love Vinyasa Yoga - this class is for you.
Vinyasa Yoga - meaning the yoga of consciously placing mind, breath and body consciously together - as one - in space-time.
"The yoga of being" ... The idea behind the practice is simple, but it does take practice to "perfect".
1. Set an elevated intent to direct you "beyond mind"
2. Dristhi - focused gaze - concentrates the mind (dharana in sanskrit)
3. Ujjayi pranayama - concentrates and directs energetic life force.
4. Asana - poses - and the transitions between poses are used to create a steady flow in the direction of the intent.
5. Bhanda - locks - are used to "fuse/merge" the mind-body system together as ONE - or yoga.
As a yoga, all you need to do is follow the above steps, success is guaranteed, but it does take time, in my case many years.
Namaste.
(suitable for all levels of yogi).
