Sarah McLusky Yoga

Mention gravity in yoga a people think headstands or acro-yoga. But really we are playing with gravity in more straightforward postures too. Sometimes we surrender to gravity - think forward folds, child and savasana. Other times we are resisting gravity - like in standing or strengthening poses and balances. And other times we need to find a dynamic balance between both.
For the next block we're going to play with gravity in all kinds of ways - still with my no-crazy-postures promise! Come and join us.

Stay safe folks!
I'm away next week so my next beach yoga class is Fri 10 July.

Regular student Michael gave me this excellent card which is relatable because it's so true - we all have a 'monkey mind' which chatters away constantly in our brain. And most of those thoughts are not even true. The aim of yoga or meditation isn't to try and 'stop' these thoughts - I don't think that's even possible. Instead it's more about detaching from them and recognising them for what they are - just thoughts. Easier said than done but that's why we practice.
