Old school, ya'll! (photo taken sometime around 2010)
20 years ago I took a 24-day-long yoga teacher training ( )

Weak upper back muscles cause the shoulders to round forward leading to slumped posture!
🩵
This move awakens these sleepy muscles.
Inhale, push forearms into block to spread across the upper back (protraction).
🩵
Exhale, squeeze shoulder blades together (retraction).
Turn on your core to keep the middle and lower back stable.
🩵
It's a great warm up for dolphin pose, inversions and...life!

Intention for class this week: Use your breath as a tool to move through stagnation.

Stagnation shows up in our thoughts through rumination. It shows up in our bodies through injury and joint stiffness. And it shows up emotionally (stuck in a mood).

The smallest action forward can be the thing that pops the cork and frees your energy.

Even if the action is simply closing your eyes and taking a deep inhale.
Or lying on your mat for 5 minutes.
Just get there in your own way.

DM for online classes and NYC and Kingston in-person classes.
