My name is Cha, let's get into an outdoor yoga and meditation session. We'll enjoy the beautiful sunny weather and natural surroundings as we move through gentle stretches, twists, and poses, focusing on mindfulness, body awareness, and finding a sense of calm and centeredness. 00:00:01 -- Introduction and Setting the Tone Let's appreciate the beautiful sunny weather while being mindful of not staying out too long to avoid getting sunburned. 00:00:32 -- Gentle Stretches and Twists We'll begin with gentle stretches and twists, reaching our arms overhead, touching the floor, and twisting our spines while seated. Remember, it's important not to force the movements but to allow your body to move naturally and comfortably. 00:01:17 -- Mindfulness and Body Awareness Be mindful of your surroundings and your body during this session. Take in the beauty of the evergreen trees and the sky. Twisting movements can help cleanse and detoxify your body while also affecting your mind and emotions. 00:05:25 -- Standing Twists and Goddess Pose Next, we'll move into standing twists and the goddess pose, involving wider stances and deeper twists. Listen to your body and avoid pushing too hard. 00:09:25 -- Closing and Gratitude We'll conclude with a final seated twist and neck stretches. Shake out any remaining tension and take deep breaths. I express gratitude for the time we've spent together and the opportunity to appreciate the present moment. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/chawilde/support

Here's part two. A live class I recorded at my Gentle Yoga class on a Thursday morning. You can come live to this one on Zoom if you like! I wanted to share it because it's focused on joint freedom and the class participants loved it so much I thought you might too.  The cold can creep into our joints and make movement feel uncomfortable. This can happen at any age but those of us in our forties and beyond, especially us menopausal women can really feel it. This class shows you thay you don't have to feel uncomfortable - there is pleasure and ease to be found in the body, whatever your condition.  Have your usual yoga props around you and be near a chair or wall if that helps you balance. If you have a resistance band and a massage ball or a dowel, have that around too.  Lots of love, Morven x www.yogabynature.org Get in touch! info@yogabynature.org  

This week on the podcast I am joined by Ali Reina. Ali's yoga journey began in 2014 when she took a yoga class to help prepare her body physically for a half marathon but was amazed how yoga provided her the mind-body-soul connection that alleviated any worries and anxieties that she brought to the mat. A chronic health diagnosis a year later limited her physically as she was unable to exercise in the same way. Gentle yoga classes were the only types of exercise that she was able to do, and for her, yoga became a critical part of her healing journey and lifestyle change. A classroom teacher for 11 years, Ali decided to follow a new path in teaching others about the mind-body connection yoga has to offer. She received her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training and is also certified in Yin Yoga, Chair Yoga, and Yoga Nidra. She created her business, Gentle Waves Yoga, in 2021 to educate others on the awareness of and experience the benefits of the gentler styles of yoga, especially for those with chronic health conditions. In this episode of the podcast, Ali shares about her journey with yoga and chronic illness, the benefits of the gentler styles of yoga and why we should consider offering them to our students, as well as the process of creating her business and some of the biggest business lessons that she's learned through the journey.

In Ayurveda, we talk a lot about digestion.  And it isn't just the digestion of the food you put in your body, but also of the sensory impressions that you take into your mind.  What you take in each day in the form of media, news, and shows needs to be digested and can affect your nervous system.In this episode with Sarah Nelsen, she talks about how she takes the nervous system into consideration in her yoga teaching and about a nervous system detox she did and the results she found.  Sarah Nelsen is a certified yoga teacher and yoga therapist and a lifelong spiritual seeker. She delights in helping people create connections to their mind, body, and spirit through gentle movement, breathwork, and opportunities for contemplation. Sarah runs an online therapeutic yoga membership and hosts the Homecoming podcast.In this episode:What yoga therapy is and the connection between chronic pain and anxietyWays that yoga can affect the nervous systemHow Sarah uses gentle yoga practices to nourish the nervous systemWhat her nervous system detox entailsSome of the results from the detoxIf you are interested in learning more about Sarah and the work she does you can find her at :  https://www.sarahnelsenyoga.comOr on Instagram:   https://www.instagram.com/sarah.elaine.nelsen/Special offer: Yoga in Bed 50% off with coupon code: nourishedCoupon good through the end of 2023; Regular price is $35, 50% off price is $17.50.

achy joints? we all get them from time to time. yoga helps. this gentle flow takes the time to mobilize and stabilize your joints in the proper ratio...to get you moving well and feeling better. take it at your own pace, breathe, and enjoy!

If you have beliefs about yoga that it is just not for you because you are either not flexible enough or fit enough, think again. The practice of yoga has taken on a mystical allure that can turn some people off from taking up this practice in the first place (myself included). The belief, according to social media, of being young fit, and strong has certainly not helped. Yet, yoga can play a vital role in our health, particularly as we get older. The right kind of yoga can help ease menopause symptoms, heal trauma, and help you relax in a way that nothing else can. I had a very important conversation with Yoga Instructor Kathy White, who practices a very specific type of yoga aimed at empowering women and men to be more forgiving and gentle with their bodies, while at the same time getting stronger.

Episode 95: Today's podcast is constructed in two parts. First, I will be talking about posture as a dynamic system and giving some information on my Feldenkrais series, Posture Matters, explaining how a Feldenkrais approach to posture restoration is different from other modalities. Then we will go into an abbreviated lesson.  The lesson portion of today is a little taste of the first lesson in the Posture Matters series and begins around 21:33. Posture, including the tension in the shoulders and the neck that originates from a forwardness of one's head is one of the most requested topics I get from students. It's a difficulty that none of us are immune to. If you are interested in this work, join the Posture Matters series which can always be done as a self-paced course. Sarah Baumert has been teaching movement since 2006. She is a certified yoga teacher, yoga therapist and Feldenkrais practitioner. This podcast is an intersection of her yoga teaching and training in the Feldenkrais® method. Classes include sensory rich movement experiences for a more resilient and healthy nervous system to help you feel a greater sense of ease and comfort in yourself.Right now I am offering a free 10 day trial for my library membership.

Episode 94: A 60 minute live class blending Feldenkrais and gentle yoga poses. In this class we explore creating a sense of width in the body. Oftentimes if our eyes have a more narrow focus (like when we are looking at a fixed object such as a screen), then our whole body can start to shrink inward and feel compressed. This is a fantastic practice to juice up the spine after a day of sitting and integrate the eyes after a day of looking at a screen. Sarah Baumert has been teaching movement since 2006. She is a certified yoga teacher, yoga therapist and Feldenkrais practitioner. This podcast is an intersection of her yoga teaching and training in the Feldenkrais® method.

Introducing Ally Dell'Amico, Instructor & Co-owner of Saule Yoga!

Hello. Welcome to “Inviting Calm” with Anita. I have been exploring gentle yoga and meditation practice in the morning before work. The days I do this practice, I feel calmer and more present. Please join me in this practice. Before we begin, I invite you to get your yoga mat and a blanket or two. We will be starting in a seated position- easy seat. I like to sit on my folded yoga blanket to help align my spine. Remember this is your time and practice. I will be giving suggestions for poses. If they do not feel comfortable, do what feels good in your body. Listen to your body honoring it.

In this unique yoga fusion class, Elise will lead you through a carefully choreographed sequence that includes all three planes of movement: sagittal, frontal, and transverse. Remember to use Elise's special Spotify playlist to accompany this innovative 30-minute movement session.

I offer you a gentle yoga practice on the theme of stillness. Is it possible to find stillness in a world that constantly moves and changes. The body, mind, breath and environment are always in flux so how can we develop a continuity of attention that creates a haven of stillness in our experience.  Props needed: bolster, blocks, belt or improvise! I love hearing your feedback. Get in touch for a chat or a one to one session info@yogabynature.org Classes, retreats and training: yogabynature.org  

Similar to the first Daily Decompression class, this gentle class gives you another opportunity to release tension in your mind and body. You will practice deep breathing as well as postures that aim to increase mobility and stretch your chest, hips, and shoulders. Take this time to slow down, nurture yourself, and unwind.

Again, for Yin Yoga, you will need any of these props... bolsters, blocks, pillows or cushions. Yin Yoga focuses on stretching the deep connective tissues in our bodies (ligaments, tendons, and fascia), rather than the more superficial muscle tissue. You will hold these floor-based postures for several minutes supported by the prop/s. Finding a point of challenge at first, you then absorb yourself into the practice with ease, allowing release of the deeply held tensions that we hold in the body and unleashing the stagnant or blocked energy. Ideal for beginners and those who wish to deepen their already established practice. This practice will focus a great deal on the hips.

Close your eyes, listen to the whispers in your body, breathe effortlessly, quiet your mind, move slowly, relax deeply...let go! Ideal for beginners and those who wish to deepen their already established practice.This practice has a little more emphasis on flexibility in the hips and introduces the full Yogic Breath (Maha Yoga Pranyama).Take it easy and remember to be kind to yourself! Enjoy!

“It's that idea that we're cultivating this field, which is our body, for all of these practices which then bring us home. And then we have creativity… we're not locked down, we're flow, we have confidence, we have things that we can't get other ways.” - Agi Fry I'm thrilled to introduce you to my guest on the podcast today, one of my favorite and most influential yoga teachers, Agi Fry! Agi is the creator of Agi Ageless Living and I first came to Agi's Gentle Yoga classes in Honolulu while injured. Gentle Yoga included many senior citizens and folks with assorted injuries and physical limitations. What struck me was how she was able to provide many effective modifications and variations to yoga poses, meeting participants where they were at while providing support and a great deal of challenge for all. I grew stronger and more balanced through her classes, was able to keep dancing and teaching (and riding a motorcycle…), and was inspired to pursue my long-time desire to do a yoga teacher training once I moved to Germany in large part due to Agi's influence. She has an intuitive way of knowing what students need, and also skill in seeing what they are capable beyond their fear and current challenges or perceived limits. A lifelong learner, Agi is always deepening her knowledge and experience and passing it along to students, most recently her online hub is on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/agisagelessliving/ You can also direct questions, inquire about her Somatics Booklet, or get a link for a free class with Agi by email at info@agisagelessliving.com We talk about what brought her to yoga and her lineage of teachers, using it as a tool to balance the nervous system, relax, and heal, student-centered pedagogy, putting things “on” rather than bringing them forth from the inside, recovering from pain and trauma, somatic solutions, her flight from the Hungarian revolution as a child, balancing multiple responsibilities and interests, bucket lists, and more.

In today's episode, I'll talk about that one time I got a 1-star review online for a Gentle Yoga class at my studio.  Every yoga teacher learns that not everyone has to like your class. So, this is part of the territory - especially with the gentle stuff. But there was something about this review that got me thinking more deeply about why someone might have this reaction to a slow, gentle class. Listen in to unpack some of the cultural assumptions (like "I need to be productive" or "this doesn't burn enough calories") that keep people from enjoying gentle yoga. And maybe together we can rethink what it means to "deepen" our practice.

Welcome back to the YogaLion Podcast! In this week's episode, I will guide you through a seated upper back and shoulder stretch. In this practice, I will guide you through some gentle yoga-inspired movements to work the spine in all six directions, targeting specifically relief for the neck and upper back. All you need is a comfortable seat (or take the practice standing, if you prefer). Join me each week to explore a different aspect of yoga, from guided breathwork, meditations, and a physical practice to book talks and teacher interviews, and more!

This slow-moving, floor-centered practice is a great end of the day release or an easy way to move into your day. Supports: mat, blanket, pillow, block, water and maybe silence or relaxing tunes. Much love, Bethany ✌

For this week's episode I invite you to your yoga mat. Join me for this quick and very gentle flow, tailored to slowing down and tuning in. *Throughout the course of this episode, you will experience periods of silence where it sounds like the audio has cut out, but it has not---due to a different mic, a lot of white noise was picked up during this recording.

Grounded in the understanding of the body, mind and energy, Christi Dysart shares a Warrior's Wisdom. Christi offers a personal story of overcoming cancer and how it informed her yoga practice. She shares vital breathing techniques and explores energy flow through an inspiring account of chakras. Having earned a BFA in dance before she embarked upon her adventures in motherhood, Christi was searching for something that moved her body, mind and spirit. After pursuing her 200 RYT Certification, she began teaching private and public yoga classes. In 2014, Christi was diagnosed with breast cancer. During her treatment, surgery and recovery, she utilized her yoga practices in a way she never had before. As a result, Christi is particularly interested in helping people who face health issues recover a sense of peace and joy and power within their bodies. You can find Christi Dysart at lulu-yoga.com. She offers gentle yoga classes based in the Hatha style focusing on bringing the body, mind and breath into harmony. A zoom link is included in the website with a suggested donation.

I also am starting a blog also called the Humphrey Homestead that you can find at humphreyhomestead.squarespace.com.

27 Minutes of Yoga + Nidra, use any props you would like to guide yourself into relaxation. Great practice to help you wind down the day and find peace.

When the weather is rainy and dreary and the news media is overwhelming, it can be hard to find the good in our day. Believe me, it's been a rough few days for myself trying to stay "present" and not getting lost in my endless trail of thoughts. Join me (and my NOT podcast-shy pups) for a quick 30-minute breather and super simple, gentle yoga practice. Breathe with me. Laugh with me. Missing so many of you lots right now... We got this! Namaste, my dearest friends. -SjW

“Loving yourself is always a good move.” ~Kerry Maiorca It takes bravery to slow down and recognize you are enough. Kerry Maiorca dismantles the idea you have to be a certain kind of person to practice yoga. She encourages and teaches others to make time within their messy lives to love themselves and to simplify. Kerry asks: Is it self-love or is it self-bullying and shaming? And, is FEAR your CEO? In this episode, she talks about why First Graders are better at meditation than you are, how to begin any practice just as you are, nourishment in the in-between spaces of life, how yoga is real life happening, and to give yourself permission to have joy without other intentions. Kerry's mission is to inspire you to slow down, breathe more deeply, and do a little less. Specializing in teaching Gentle and Restorative Yoga, Kerry is passionate about sharing the depths of practice in an accessible, individualized, and down-to-earth way. Kerry is the Founder of Bloom Yoga Studio and serves as chair of the board for Yoga Alliance. She's been teaching yoga for over 20 years and loves mentoring new and experienced yoga teachers to help them authentically shine. In September 2019, Kerry will be co-leading the Nourished Life Retreat in Aspen, CO, complete with Gentle Yoga, Culinary Nutrition Classes, Hiking, a Creativity Reboot, and more!
