A new relaxation record has been set! For last night’s Yin/Restorative class, we used 5 blocks, 4 bolsters, three blankets, a strap, and a fluffy lavender scented towel to help us root down, turn inwards and surrender. The result....PURE BLISS! Join me, Tuesday nights at 7:45 @refreshyogacenter! You’ve got nothing to lose but your worries and stress 😉✨📿 #restorativeyoga #surrender #yogaoldtownalexandria #refresh #reikiandrestorative #reikiyoga #reikihealing #reikialexandriava #oldtownalexandria #alexandriavayoga

“Oh great spirit whose voice I hear in the winds, and whose breath gives life to all the world, hear me! I am small and weak, I need your strength and wisdom. Let me walk in beauty, and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset. Make my hands respect the things you have made, and my ears sharp to hear your voice. Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught me. Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock. I seek strength not to be greater than my brothers and sisters but to fight my greatest enemy- myself. So when life fades, as the fading sunset, my spirit may come to you without shame.”- Navajo prayer 🙏🏾🌿🍂🌒🌎🔥🌫🌊YES. YES. YES. Today’s prayer poem. #poemoftheday #nationalpoetrymonth #yogapoetry #elementalwisdom #balance #woodlandforest
“When there is no mind, you are in yoga; when there is mind you are not in yoga. So you may do all the postures, but if the mind goes on functioning, if you go on thinking, you are not in yoga. Yoga is the state of no-mind. If you can be without the mind without doing any posture, you have become a perfect yogi. It has happened to many without doing any postures, and it has not happened to many who have been doing postures for many lives."- Osho ✨💗🧘🏾‍♀️📿. Not a poem but poetic all the same. This quote speaks volumes. Restorative Yoga and meditation are transcendent. Sitting with the breath, holding hands with stillness and allowing the fluctuations of the mind to evaporate into ether, equals pure magic. ✨🌈🌟 And then there’s motherhood-lol.The littles keep hi jacking my restorative props. Nothing is sacred anymore 😜 but everything is wondrous😍 #restoration #yoga #restorativeyoga #osho #inclinedtwist #mommyyoga #nationalpoetrymonth #todayspoem

Spring has arrived! A delightful twilight practice in the woods = pure magic ✨. Today’s poem 👉🏽 SUMMER by: Jayanta Mahapatra ☀️Not yet. Under the mango tree the cold ash of a deserted fire. Who needs the future? A ten-year-Old girl combs her mother’s hair, where crows of rivalries are quietly nesting. The home will never be hers. In a corner of her mind a living green mango drops softly to earth. - Jayanta Mahapatra 🙏🏾#poemoftheday #nationalpoetrymonth #yogapoem #peacefulwarrior
