Welcome to Yogi Sticks!

Do you know your Gomukasana from your Adho Mukha Svanasana? Is your Vrksasana all it can be? And how do you feel about Supta Baddha Konasana? Do you know what I'm even talking about?

Sometimes the Sanskrit - however beautiful it sounds - is not very helpful. So, to encourage my students to expand their yoga practice into their home, I sketch the poses we practice during class on a chart and add the Sanskrit and common name. Hopefully, this is a useful tool to help them along in their yogic journey. I also troll the internet, books, and journals to find interesting articles about yoga and the yogic lifestyle.

2-7 The Asymmetrical Body and 2-9 Fun Flows



Both classes this week were heavier in the vinyasa style of yoga. This means there is more of a flow between poses, with each asana moving gracefully and organically into the next. Like a dance.

Monday's class ended with this quote from Luke 12:48 - "Much is required from those to whom much is given."

Quote for Wednesday's class: "Remember, happiness doesn't depend on who you are or what you have; it depends solely upon what you think. -Dale Carnegie
