Mastering Simplicity Class #04: Gait, Mobility, and Motivation Subtotal: $30.00
Mastering Simplicity Class #06: Apana: The Downward Movement of Prana
$30.00
The Mastering Simplicity sessions reflect how yoga was once taught, with teacher and student meeting each other with openness and inquisitiveness about what might arise. Because Donna wishes to teach from what is most current within her practice, there won’t be a detailed description of each monthly class until after it has been recorded. This is deliberate so that she can create each class as she explores what she is most interested in, in the weeks prior to each class. This is an invitation to explore and discover new experiences from often familiar practices.
The classes are offered monthly and will consist of a 2-hour livestream class. 1.5 hours of guided practice followed by 30 minutes for questions, reflections, and community connection.
This class was recorded in July 2024.
Recordings will be available for 30 days after purchase, unless you choose to subscribe. Subscriptions offer greater benefits, particularly for teachers, which you can learn more about here.
See the description of this class below for more details.
Offer up every joy,
be awake at all moments to the news
that is always arriving
out of silence.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Physical Focus: Restorative Yoga & Yoga Nidra
What’s Inside: After a short introduction on the effects of the Tonic Labyrinthine Reflex and its relationship to prone, supine and side-lying Restorative Yoga postures, we practice a prone supported restorative practice, a supine/extended practice, and a side-lying practice, feeling how each practice affects the nervous system. Many blanket and towel folds are introduced to tailor fit each restorative practice. We finish the practice with a Yoga Nidra designed to be learned and self-guided at a later time.
Key Focus: How the relationship of the body to the earth (prone, supine, side-lying, inverted) affects the nervous system, causing sedation, stimulation or a neutralizing effect.
