How often do you get to slow down? Slow, mindful movement is not only important to counter the hustle of our fast-paced lives and the continuous upregulation of our (often frazzled) nervous systems. Mindful movement also connects us more deeply to our body signals, to our unique physical needs, and to compassion and patience with our bodies. In addition, it creates the space for mind-blowing aha moments as we move off the mat and into our day-to-day - making us less prone to injury, to road rage, and to impulsive shopping sprees (well, as if that’s a bad thing).
Have any props you might have on hand (blocks, straps, bolsters, and cushions... or books, belts, towels, tea towels, folded blankets, or couch cushions!).
