As the leaves begin their gentle descent and the days start to wane, join me in celebrating the magical transition of the Fall Equinox through a harmonious and rejuvenating yoga practice. This special class is designed to help you align your energies with the changing seasons and find equilibrium within yourself.
As we come together on the cusp of fall, we’ll draw inspiration from the inherent balance of the equinox. The equinox marks a point of equilibrium when day and night are of equal length, symbolizing the delicate dance of light and darkness within us.
**Flow Overview:**
- Grounding Opening:** We’ll begin with a centering pranayama (breathwork), connecting to the earth’s energies to ground ourselves and create a strong foundation.
- Sun Salutations:** Flow through a series of Sun Salutations, paying homage to the sun’s energy that has sustained us throughout the vibrant summer months.
- Harvest and Gratitude:** Through heart-opening postures, we’ll cultivate a sense of gratitude for the abundance in our lives and the harvest season ahead.
Join us as we honor the shift in seasons and explore the balance that resides within and around us. All levels of yoga experience are warmly welcomed, as modifications and variations will be offered to cater to individual needs. Let’s come together as a community to embrace the beauty of change and find tranquility in the Fall Equinox.
