Embracing Change.... As human beings, we seek structure and routine. While this can be good in some aspects, it can cause us to resist change, which may hold us back from progressing and moving forward. If you’re struggling to accept a new change in your life, this calming yet empowering sequence will settle your nerves and fill you with positivity and courage.
The sequence targets the stomach and spleen meridians and connects to the element of Earth, relieving anxiety and nervousness. It includes some uncommon yin poses like ankle stretch and toe squat. These postures can feel uncomfortable at first as we are not used to stretching our feet in this way. However, by practicing the art of surrender, we can find comfort in the unknown.
The sequence includes:
Pranayama (Nadhi Shodhana) breathing
Sphinx
Reverse Corpse
Child's Pose
Toe Squat
Ankle Stretch
Dragonfly Pose
Sleeping Swan
