A gentle yin practice that focuses on meditative awareness and inner listening. Postures are all reclined and include butterfly, simple twists, thread-the-needle, twisted roots, and half moon. The focus of the practice is about cultivating attentive awareness and developing sensitivity to the body’s many messages and subtle signals. The true practice of yoga is this deep intimacy with the body and your ability to recognize the many currents of energy within you and around you.
