We under-utilize our legs in so many yoga poses (and life in general!): we hang in our joints, we sink into our hips, and we selectively use the muscles that are already strong (and thus, probably, overused). Tonight's practice sought to find our inner thighs, and more importantly, tap into these muscles to improve our postures. Use your feet and legs to plug into the energy of the earth - tap into it! And if your legs are off the ground in an inversion, use the same musculature to engage them in the air. As they say in Wicked, "I think I'll try defying gravity"!
The quote from practice: "Re-examine all that you have been told...dismiss that which insults your soul." - Walt Whitman
