Vinyasa | Awaken Morning Rasa

30 MINUTES | VINYASA | ALL LEVELS

Awaken Morning Rasa

Intention: An invitation to set the tone of the day with the juicy fullness of being in one's body. Through luxurious breaths and generous attention, we invite what yoga and Ayurveda refer to as "rasa" or the juice and essence of practice. Savor the slow movement working towards dancer pose; in embodying rasa we invite fluidity of expression in the body. From the perspective of positive psychology, we tap into gratitude, and savoring as a means of uplifting the mind and choosing what flavor we want to establish for the rest of our day.

What to expect: Morning yoga flow, but can also be practiced when you need calm yet uplifting and energizing movement. Half Surya A sun salutations to invoke the essence of the Sun, energizing and awakening. Heart opening postures to invite receptivity and abundant energy.

Working towards: Dancer Pose - Nataranjasana
