Episode 24: My Evening Slowdown Practice
This is a 35-minute slow practice. It is an offering of presence and slowing down that can be practiced at any time - before bed or during the day to reconnect and calm the nervous system. Just a handful of slow postures here and a whole lot of meditative presence and inward connection. The breath focus of this practice is the exhale - the physical and the emotional release. Sometimes the yoga asana we need most is very mellow, very slow. When the day has left you wired and your energy dissipated, take half an hour to settle the body and the mind. This is my daily evening practice. In this way, I clear away the debris from the day and fully arrive into my body before settling in for the night. This is not a workout. This is a work-in, and, quite possibly, the most peaceful 30 minutes of your day. Flow with me and notice how you feel when you are done. Enjoy!
