Oopsie! I thought I'd lost the audio from June's class -- but i found it! So, I'm posting it, even though it was from the prior month. Hip strengthening is on the menu, and you'll want to have blocks nearby.

Podcast #135 - Aparigraha (non-grasping)
Monday Jul 03, 2023
Monday Jul 03, 2023
One of the five yamas (restraints) - which are practices recommended for practitioners of yoga - Aparigraha is the practice of non-grasping. This could be said in many ways... simplicity, not taking too much, not hoarding wealth or even the Buddhist AND Franciscan practices of non-possession.
The phyiscal practice focuses mainly on twisting. In particular, opening the outer hip/it band area in order to access certain types of twists. The focal asana here is eka pada koundinyasana (the twisty one) but you can always skip whatever you need to to make the practice right for you.

Saturday Apr 16, 2022
The theme of the class is based on the Jivamukti Yoga focus of the month, which can be read in full here: https://jivamuktiyoga.com/fotm/all-about-asana/
The asana portion of the class involves some hip opening work, along with options for half or full lotus, which is one of the four recommended "seats" for meditation in the Hatha Yoga Pradipika - a mid-century handbook on yoga practice.
It is helpful to have a block for this class. As always practice within your range and always get clearance from your trusted medical professionals before practicing.
