Live Asana 2/9/25 - Vishāda - Emotional Overwhelm
February 2025 Practices
•
09-Feb-2025
Emphasizes the tool of FOCUS on breath, alignment + balance in support of working skillfully with vishāda or emotional overwhelm.

Hone it and tone it by focusing in the flow by synching breath and movement, by paying attention to alignment and in balancing postures, where focus isn't optional! Then we relax it in savasana!
