Arms Up Star of Vigor

 

Utthita Tadasana - Expanded Mountain Pose

The second law of thermodynamics states that the universe naturally tends towards increasing disorder and dispersal of energy throughout available space. 

Therefore, it is WORK to simply NOT slide backwards. & We must Continuously REFINE our Rhythm and Routine to make any progress. Analyze your days and identify specific areas of inadequacy — approach one pinpointed flaw individually with a fresh categorical strategy. Yes, it takes INCESSANT exertion to mobilize towards increasing order and organized energy. Get out that fine-tooth comb; Administer your days in great detail with extreme care. 

The end of the beginning

Ustrasana - Camel Pose. Fear. Elation. A life lived fully. 

At forty times around the sun, I have begun to live each day working my way backwards from the Final Destination. Who do I want to be before it’s time to return to Dust? I am able to visualize my best self in old age and aim in that stratospheric direction. It’s invigorating, exhilarating, and petrifying — & that’s when your whole world opens up. 

Angel as Messenger

Let your angels elucidate whilst you repose.

Formulate your unresolved affair into a Question. Query the Cosmos as you fall asleep or surrender to Savasana. Encounter the response as you arouse. 

Space Cadet

Adrift in the ether … 🪐 ✨ 

 

Flip the Script

 

 

Kakasana - Crow Pose.

It’s basically Happy Baby inverted, right?

Think of the FLIP SIDE and turn your day (life!) around. It’s a lighthearted, topsy-turntable way to get unstuck. Also a rad mechanism to make new shapes in your practice - ROLL OVER 🙃

Happy Baby Steps

Ananda Balasana - surely the most cheerful pose to say 💛

There truly is enormous power in putting one teensy foot in front of the other in (even just pretty much) the right direction. 🎯 
 

Outshine

Above - SunBum, Mineral Fusion, Pacifica, Physician’s Formula, Dr Haushka, Waleda, A La Maison, HoneyPot, ORL… fond of them from old fashioned trial and error. Personal, empirical data that no amount of “(online) research” could ever compete with. 🤓

Learning is EXPERIENTIAL. All of the second-hand information in the world can never top trying something for yourself. 🎩 Just as all the 1000’s of product reviews cannot substitute for physically testing said commodity 1st-hand. 💋

 

PROP UP

For the L💜VE of PROPS. Blocks, Bolsters, Straps, Towels, Blankets, Eye Pillows, a Chair, the Wall…

SUPPORT. Seek it out. ACCEPT it. It may seemingly manifest in an unforeseen form, but it’s exactly as you asked it. So again, please RECEIVE the RELIEF. 🌬️
