Live AUDIO recording (no video)
Yin Yoga for when your joints ache, or on a windy stormy day, or when you seek extra stillness and silence.
Just the audio for this class as on the night of recording I was very sick with allergies (thanks to that New Moon wind storm blowing all the pollen around). I felt and looked terrible- a video would have been a turn off plus I wore a mask. Thankfully, I was able to tap into my flow state and channel my higher self. I think I sound pretty normal and was still able to give a class that lead the students into a state of bliss (at least they looked they were in bliss at the end and some mentioned to me on their way out that they felt). You let me know when you do the class. As teachers - rain, wind storm, no contagious illness, or shine .... sometimes the show must go on and we need to teach. Special thanks to our SYAMA sister Jess - as her presence in class, gave me some comfort and I knew that if I was to sick to get through it, Jess would come to my aid.
