After reading an article in Yoga Journal, this week I have decided to focus all of my classed on Savasana. Every class will be a prep for this precious final rest AND every one of my classes will have a 6-8 minute Savasana as well as plenty of time to bring the energy to a place were we can really rest. So often I take classes at various spots and the class is great but then we get to Savasana and I am all ready to really surrender into the stillnes, before my nervous system really has a chance to let go, we are out, up and oming. Short savasanas keep us from allowing the practice to metabolize and these deeper layers to be reached. And in my opinion, it also glorifies the more dynamic masculine parts of the practice and lessens the sweetness of the divine feminine receptivity. Its tough to give students a long rest, have a powerful engaging class AND end on time. But this week I am challenging myself to really do it. Feeling inspired teachers? Join me! Already doing it? Let me know, I will come take your class! This wasnt the article but still a great explanation of Savasana: yogajournal/poses/482
