Beloved Yoga Friends,
It has been proven that all types of movement revitalize our bodies and minds. Moving our bodies is healthy and offers a wide range of benefits – however we do it. Movement allows us to generate joy and enhances our quality of life.
Some benefits of moving our bodies are:
- Releases endorphins and helps relieve stress and tension
- Allows us to take a break from everyday challenges and responsibilities
- Improves the health of bones and lymphatic system
- Allows emotions to move through our bodies
- Provides an outlet for self expression
- Strengthens the connection we have with our bodies and enhances pleasure
Gentle flow yoga and qigong inspired yoga are movement based practices that energize the body and calm the mind. They invite us to come into our bodies, connect our movements to our breathing, and cultivate a sense of joyfulness. By moving our bodies first, we can transition with more ease into stillness practices like restorative yoga and sitting meditation.
This month, I am delighted to be offering classes and 1:1 sessions designed to generate joy through movement.
I hope you can join me!
Love,
Lauren Amrita
