Adapting Our Practice to Our Changing Bodies Part 2 – Inversion Alternatives/Slow Moving Asanas/The Vagus Nerve

Discussion/Asanas: 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

Lunch: 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m.

Restoratives/Guided meditation/Pranayama: 1:00 – 2:00 p.m.

Inversions are beneficial when practiced cautiously and intelligently. However oftentimes we have contraindications such as high blood pressure, reflux, degenerative discs in the neck or back, etc. Some inversions can still be practiced in modified ways. We all know movement is a key to living better lives and to keep active. Movement without being grounded or aligned can also lead to injuries or falls. We will incorporate slow gentle movements in standings and seated positions.

There are many benefits in learning about the vagus nerve functions and anatomy and they help us understand our body/mind/emotional responses. Our posture and breath-work profoundly affect vagus nerve functioning.

Please bring your own props, including but not restricted to: two blocks, yoga mat, 2-3 blankets, and a belt. Folding chairs will be provided. We will use bolsters; so if you have one, please bring it. There are a few that can be used from the studio. Let me know if you will need one before the class. Please bring an eye bag for savasana.

Lunch will be provided. It is vegetarian but includes dairy and eggs.
