This is yogic breathing technique helpful for stress and anxiety.

Today we breathe with the theme of preparing for spring, letting go and welcoming in new life/new perspectives/new ways of seeing things: Bellows, breath of fire and right-side breath.

We begin with a screen share of what's inside your brain. Followed with bellows, fire breath and ending in Sa-ta-na-ma. This set may prep you to drop into meditation.

We do fire breath with hip openers + more. Enjoy!

The time-transition in the spring can be tough if you're with me live! This is an elevating breath set.

One of the faves! This is a great breath set for Mondays, end of colds, flus or just needing a sunshiney boost of energy.

We work with MORE THAN vs LESS THAN machinations of the ego with our breath today. Both are BS. If we operate from that egoic channel - we suffer. Reduce suffering and increase intelligence with this practice.

We illuminate via breath & go inside because the outside world, regardless of gender, will always tell you you're not enough. I apologize if your name is Debbie (I used the term from SNL "Debbie Downer" haha). You are NOT a downer. We do an uplifting breath practice.

Today's breath practice is action-packed kriya with a bit of stretch. It is excellent for feeling low, depressed, sad or requiring a wake-up!

This breath does as it says! It is energizing and awakening.

Today's practice has the element of bliss as it is 'bellows breath" heavy (Bhastrika), meaning there is hyper-oxygenation to the body, brain and blood, leaving you feeling a natural high off of breathwork. This is the basic spinal series in the Kundalini tradition as well.

"I like myself" is one reason we do this practice. I speak to this. As well, 2 sets kp breath, breath of fire, ending with viloma (ladder breath).

We go through lions' breath, hip openers with the breath, twists, cat-cow with bellows breath, sitali (cooling), and nadi shodana.

We do: agni sara, lions breath, jivha bandha and Bhrama mudra - followed by uplifting/regular breath work.

This is my fave breath set. It's a cure-all for everything: stress, a low mood, battling anxiety or depression, end of a cold or flu, sluggishness.

This is an uplifting set in a seated position, moving the breath and spine in all directions.

This is the Kundalini Kriya for lungs and magnetism. But I go a bit into "deprogramming" and remembering true happiness via the breath.

The "Crystal Clear" kriya for decluttering your mind and heart + additional breath.

Happy Valentine's Day Breathwork Class

I speak briefly on depressogenic schemas and how we can use breath to disrupt these cycles.

We begin with deep 8-count diaphragmatic breathing to digital pranayama to "bellows" awakening breath.

It is interesting to note that the Arabic word for human being is 'insan' which is derived from the word 'nasiya' which means 'to forget. I speak to this in today's practice.

Today's practice is great if you're annoyed and need to shift it.

I mention briefly how important WATER is for our brains - let's move heavy winter rainy, snowy blue energy towards lightness. The biology behind the lack of sunshine vibes :).
