Aligning yourself with nature to create a deep sense of flow is a common theme in yoga. The power inherent in the change of seasons makes the recent Equinox an auspicious time to challenge yourself to grow and transform. Whether you’re celebrating the blossoming of Spring or marking the releasing associated with Autumn, the world is shifting and so can you.
We are constantly growing as individuals, but sometimes we can slip into patterns of stagnation. As a global community, we’ve all been required to stay closer to home and for many of us jobs disappeared or dramatically changed, our social life quieted, and our physical, emotional, and mental health was tested. It has been a tough year! If you feel like you’re in a rut, you’re not alone.
With the support of Mother Earth beneath us, it’s a great time to push ourselves out of our comfort zones and wake up on every level. Whether you need to plant new seeds for Spring or shed layers that no longer serve you, our new two-week challenge will kickstart your efforts.
In April, we’re excited to offer you a two-week yoga challenge, designed to help you Find Your Flow. Flow, also known as the zone, is the mental state of operation in which a person performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In other words, you are living in the present moment.
Many of us find that “zone” through activities we love––you know the ones where you’re no longer trying or thinking about what you’re doing, you’re simply enjoying being in the moment. Whether that’s dancing, listening to music, walking in nature, running, gardening, or cooking. Yoga and meditation allow you to access your zone whenever you choose, just by rolling out your yoga mat.
When we focus on connecting the power of physical movement with the practice of mindful breathing, we can expand our prana or life force energy and boost energy or calm our nervous system. Use the seasonal shifts to reflect, set intentions, and create change in your life. We are making it simple by offering three options a day to choose from, so all you need to do is press play. Committing to a challenge with fellow yogis around the world can give you the boost you need to find a greater sense of fluidity and freedom. Join us!
