Session Plans

Intentionally shying away from the chaotic energy of the eclipse, we're opting instead to welcome with warmer temps with a Spring wood element focused practice.

Continuing with another 5 Elements themed practice, leading with the Wood element (Spring here in the northern hemisphere) and cycling through the seasons. A few repeated movements from earlier in the week and a few new ones.

Beginning April with a Five Elements themed practice, beginning with Spring and cycling through the seasons.  3 Forms for each season covering all 12 of the ordinary meridians.

As we continue the journey to Spring, a little love for the lung meridian as so many are suffering upper respiratory issues.. this is a mix of traditions and movements from traditional sets, woven together to promote a smooth flow movement to movement.

20 forms in this one ... wisdom from Maya Angelou -- "Do the best you can until you know better.  Then, when you know better, do better"

This week we'll freestyle each session using forms that flow well together from our recurring practices.

A heart centered set for the heart of the summer.  Breathwork - 4x4x4x4 Box Breath

On Thursday and Friday last week, we grabbed corresponding meridian movements to the forms of the 8 Brocades (6 of which map to organ meridians) from a set called The 12 Rivers. This week, we'll do the other 6 forms from 12 Rivers and practice the bumblebee breath (Bhramari pranayama) during our postures.

Note - purely coincidence, but these remaining forms reordered in seasonal order form a full 5 element set bookended (as we often do) by forms for the current season. A little gift from the universe :)

For Thursday and Friday sessions, we'll look at the differences in mapping forms to meridians between The 8 Brocades and The 12 Rivers.

This week, exploring variations to the forms of the Eight Brocades.
