This week in class we focused on Spring Cleaning. We have 72,000 nadis (pathways, nerve endings), in the body according to yogies. With all the asana, breathing and meditation we look to cleansing and clearing these energy pathways because they get blocked. They get blocked when we take in toxins, when we over exercise, don’t get enough sleep or when we are emotionally upset. Overtime these mental, emotional and physical blockages create tension between ourselves, our organs, our nervous system and our fields of perception. This week in class we dabbled in the Kundalini style of yoga that practices kryias which are acts, they are to be performed in succession of 21 times with most finishing with rapid breath of fire, which is a form of yogic creating that is more aerobic than aerobics. They ranged from strengthening the vestibular apparatus, which is the inner ear to cleansing the liver. We also set the intention to release the “things” we were holding on to that no longer served us so that we could expand into our greater good. As we move into Spring, I urge you to continually take inventory of the things that are creating blockages so that you will be open to receive more of what life has to offer.
