“There are people who are born and die and never once are aware of their breath going in and out of their body. That’s how far away they live from themselves.” ~Ajahn Chah

The third of 7 classes in this Metal-themed course for fall time continues with a focus on our breathing and lung capacity. The class begins with some Qigong warm-ups to release stagnation in the tissues and joints while invigorating our whole body, followed by Viloma Pranayama to expand our breath. Dragon’s Pearl Qigong effectively continues this work while coupling breath to movement. The remaining 45 minutes is a restorative yoga practice designed to help us deepen and integrate the practice while fully relaxing our nervous system. We finish in Savasana with a full Viloma practice – Stages 1, 2, & 3.
