What brings us joy in our life? Do we bring it in on a daily basis? When we are not so happy, where does our power, thoughts, energy go? How do we bring it back? Is a mantra helpful? Let’s try one today on our mat as we do a Vinyasa Flow filled with balance postures, Half Moon Pose, seated twists, and more.

Life is a balancing act, especially as we are home during a pandemic. How do we find balance both on and off the mat during these times? On the mat, let’s play with balancing poses, such as figure fours and a funky side crow. Off the mat, let’s do our best to be open to all the unknowns and changes around us. Let’s remember to breathe and make time to come back to our mats, whether for a calming meditation or for some asana practice to move our bodies.
Today’s practice starts off with a story about a family and adjusting to a new normal. We can apply this story to our lives on and off the mat. What is working and, more so, what is not? Can we adjust, balance, and begin again?

So often we push ourselves, play the negative talk record, and/or just go through the motions. Maybe today is the day you take it easy, be gentle, and know that it is there for you next time. You and I are worthy of loving ourselves and one another, let’s do that on and off the mat as much as possible (even on the hard days).

In this Vinyasa flow, we incorporate Shanka Mudra to cultivate peace and bring the keen sense of listening within. Shanka is the conch shell, one of the oldest musical instruments in many parts of the world. Our inner ear is coiling and spiraling like a conch shell. It governs the sense of balance and the awareness of space and time. What will happen when you relax your inner ear? Bring awareness to this subtle change. Invite your senses inward as we practice pratyahara, internalizing your senses.
Support your practice with Shankha Mudra to cultivate a peaceful mind and center yourself. Find the peace you already carry within. We can change ourselves to feel free of tensions and find peace within.

Notice the space between your inhalation and exhalation. Enjoy the space between the poses in the flow sequence. We open space within not only the chest but also the hips and whole body. This is also a Pratyahara practice.
As we strengthen our core with the practice of Uddiyana Bandha (flying lock) and Mula Bandha (root lock), we can establish the awareness of lifting our center of gravity with control. This awareness helps us balance in any inversion pose and in arm balance poses. In this practice, we gradually open our shoulders and arms to prepare for this arm balance: Pincha Mayurasana (Peacock Feather Pose).
In this energetic flow, we incorporate Vajra Mudra to cultivate will power and positive energy. This practice offers discernment when we face the challenge to balance in not only yoga asanas but also in our lives. By using this mudra, we gather our energy toward the center and align our vital energy flow upward. Directing energy flow improves our concentration. It supports engaging our core for balance and challenge in any asanas. Let’s discover this subtle change and the power of mudra.
