  • S6 Ep12: How does empowerment or hopelessness affect your heart? | Realizing the oneness of the emotional system and the cardiovascular system | There IS NO normal human body | Bikram Yoga 90-minute class | The Original Hot Yoga

  • S6 Ep10: The Original Hot Bikram Yoga 90-minute Class | Yoga Reveals and Addresses the THINGS at the same time | The heart organ goes everywhere! | Different proportions in Rabbit Pose - the posture works for all of them!)
    Oct 17 2023
    The postures of the Original Hot Yoga / Bikram Yoga class WORK at whatever level you can "accomplish" them. Whether you have a long spine, short spine, sore muscles, injured body parts, it doesn't matter.

    With practice and wisdom you will start to see the non-sensical nature of the thought: "I'll go (back) to yoga when my ________________ is better. In here we can work around a cast, a sling, a missing body part, normal structural imbalances, injuries, and so much more. It is 100% about your willingness.

    In this class we also went into the heart as a whole-body organ, and how our models of the heart can restrict not only our understanding, but also our empowerment and our healing capabilities. Yoga is a discipline of freedom, yet again!

    Happy practicing!
