Episode 27: Appreciating and connecting with the floor and breath.

This is a slow flowing class. We pay special attention to the connection to the floor and to the breath in all the poses. Today, practice appreciation for whatever your situation is, good or bad. Without trying to make things “better”,  be present with where you are and allow your body and mind to shift, change, expand, and open to joy (and chattaranga pushups!). The final pose before savasana is supta baddha konasana.

Be sure when you move through chatturanga, the shoulders never drop lower than the elbows. Keep the elbows hugging towards the body and use your belly to help make this pose fun!

Sarah has been creating podcast classes since 2007. Each podcast is an originally crafted yoga class taught by Sarah Baumert. There are currently over 50 episodes that range in length, level and style. Sarah's teaching is alignment based, unhurried, and rich with somatic inquiries. The cueing is effective, easy to follow, and uses visualizations of postures to allow for unexpected growth and depth. You will find live unplugged versions of her classes from yoga studios, as well as classes that are specifically produced for the podcast medium.

Find more of Sarah's teaching, including live online classes ,  self-paced courses and the Body Matter library membership.
