Tools for your Self Practice

 

If you enjoy my classes, these tools can help in your home yoga practice. In my opinion, a home or personal practice can teach you so much and benefit you more than a group class. Use these tools, but also just move....move to how your body is calling you to move, do the postures that come to you and hold them as long as you want to. If you can really tune in to yourself and then act in a way that best supports what is needed at that moment, then that is not just a philosophy for your yoga practice, but your life. Enjoy...not just the destination, but also the path that gets you there.

HOME PRACTICE

Listed here are 3 main practices- all completely different from one another. I have designed them with a balanced approach, offering standing, seated and reclined postures. You can increase difficulty by putting in a vinyasa transition (plank --> chaturanga danasana --> upward facing dog --> downward facing dog) between the standing poses. These PDF give detailed instruction on the asana and are listed in the order I suggest them being practiced.

For your home practice, practice in this order:

  1. Warm up
  2. Main Practice-pick one: Sequence 1 ,Sequence 2 , Sequence 3
  3. Cool down

PLAYLISTS

These playlists have often been requested by my students. Enjoy them with your home practice.
