Peeps were really in their heads today, and there was a lot of resistance when we got started. I have to pick my battles, and some of them I just let sit in chairs on the sidelines and breathe.
It took 30 minutes to get into a zone. I kept cueing deep breaths and it helped to show ujJaii breathing with hands wrapped around the ribs so they could feel it. Warrior III also helped, as it was fun as well as challenging. They were really in it!
Got most of the talking points in towards the end when the room energetically cleared. We talked about thoughts being the number one source of toxicity; we breathed in kindness and love, and exhaled out 'anything that doesn't serve'..fear, anger, jealousy...
Lead into savasana with a meditation on feeling supported and feeling connected to the earth.
