Podcast #156 - Blind Spots

Using physical movement to explore the often-overlooked "blind spots" in the body and mind. With an emphasis on increasing conscious awareness, the class begins with a traditional chant and transitions into mindful movement aimed at awakening the mid-back and deepening inner perception with a long-ish meditation at the end of class.
