Yoga Foundations for Addictions

Description

Are you ready to get started on your yoga journey? Are you overwhelmed by all the yoga choices out there, and does it just seem too challenging to get started on your yoga journey? I know! It can be really hard to get started in a way which is accessible and fun to you, and in a way that you get to build good habits and feel successful from Day One.

I am about as flexible as a rhinoceros, and I know just how hard it can be to start your own yoga practice. It is tough! And it does take some time to get a feel for the poses and the breath. So I have simplified it all here and I have made these classes slow and steady so that they will be accessible to you, no matter how flexible you are.

Maybe yoga has been recommended to you by your family or friends, or maybe you are in a place in your life where you feel “more ready” to incorporate yoga into your life. This course is a gentle introduction for those new to yoga and for those looking to refine their practice and create good habits from the beginning so that you can make this a lifelong practice.

The course is broken down into 10 accessible classes of around 20 minutes each. They are sequenced in the order of a “typical” full-length class, so it is a good idea (especially the first time you do the course) to start with Class 1 and move through them sequentially. After that, once you have a firm grasp of the foundations of this practice, you can jump around to different classes as you choose.

The classes are –

Class 1: Grounded and Centered A gentle warm-up to connect with your body and find your center.
Class 2: Sunrise Flow A slow and mindful sun salutation to awaken your body and mind.
Class 3: Lunar Awakening Deep breathing, gentle warm-up, and a crescent moon flow to nourish your spirit.
Class 4: Radiant Flow A sun salutation that builds strength and vitality.
Class 5: Rooted and Balanced Strengthen your foundation and find stability through balancing poses.
Class 6: Core Power A dynamic core workout to build strength and stability.
Class 7: Shoulder Freedom Open and strengthen your shoulders for greater mobility and comfort.
Class 8: Hip Harmony Release tension and improve flexibility in your hips.
Class 9: Flexible and Strong Maintain flexibility and strength among challenges with forward bends, backbends, and twists.
Class 10: Elevated and Empowered Build confidence and balance through arm balancing.

These classes are fun, simple and empowering and if you stick with them, you will feel changes in your body – and your life – quickly. The yoga journey starts with the physical yoga practice or the postures, and as you get more comfortable with them, so you will see and feel the yoga work in different areas of your life, so you can live a more extraordinary life.

Enjoy the journey! I look forward to seeing you on your mat soon!
