“As we work to heal the earth, the earth heals us. The land knows you, even when you are lost. Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy.” ~Robin Wall Kimmerer

The fourth class in this Earth-themed course for later summertime turns our attention to the hidden but powerful force of gravity and its connection to our Inner Earth. This deeply nourishing class begins with some Qigong warm-ups to release stagnation in the tissues and joints while invigorating our whole body, followed by Earth-Breathing qigong, Spleen-Pump, Yin-Wheel, Spreading our Wings, and Earth-Undulations. The remaining 45 minutes is a restorative yoga practice with poses designed to deepen our awareness & connection to the force of gravity, nurture our sense of balance, while developing our proprioception.
