75 minute Classes exploring the Chakras
Recorded in July/August 2012 in Streatham Hill
Chakra Flow - Muladhara Chakra.
The root centre. Strong, grounded and balanced. Plenty of standing poses exploring our connection to Earth and our Roots. The Root Chakra represents elimination, structure, stability, foundations, boundaries, Apana Vayu, the seat of Kundalini and our guilt as well as passions.
We use a block in the sequence but you can use a rolled up towel/blanket if you don't have a block available.
£4.99
Chakra Flow - Swadisthana Chakra
From the solid and dense foundation of the Muladhara Chakra we move towards a more fluid and sensuous space. Here we are exporing the Swadisthana Chakra where we develop pleasure, sensuality, emotions and creativity.
An imbalanced Swadisthana Chakra can show up as rigidity. Both in our mindset and in our physical body.
This class explores various hip opening practises.
Chakra Flow - Manipura Chakra
With a focus on our core, centre, solar plexus - our inner strength and radiance! Enjoy this practice for courage, optimism, personal power and self-empowerment!
An unbalanced manipura chakra can manifest as depression, low energy, digestive issues, or manipulative, anger issues and ego issues.
We use a block for a supported bridge pose - but you can do a regular setubandhasana or add cushions under the sacrum.
Chakra Flow - Anahata Chakra, the Heart centre
We are flowing with intention and mindfulness grounded in our hearts. Exploring backbends and deep shoulder openers.
When the heart centre is balanced we let go of resentment, jealousy, a deeply depressed and compressed chest and open our whole thoracic area to breath, new energy, love, compassion, and Bhakti!
We use a yoga belt in the class to explore the chest opening in Natarajasana and Dhanurasana but you can practise without a belt or use a regular belt/tie.
Chakra Flow - Vishuddi Chakra, The Throat Centre
We are going to flow, move and breathe with a focus on the Throat Chakra: communication, expression, purification, vibration and sound. The throat is the connection between body and head: Can you express what you feel, Can you bring action to your thoughts? Is your head aligned with our body? Do you live in your body or your head? The element is Space so we will flow and move. Finding our way to half and full handstands (using a wall) to experience ourselves in a different space and to free our neck and throat.
£4.99
Chakra Flow - Ajna Chakra (the command centre - the third eye)
Staying grounded in our practise and in our life we can manifest our visions and dreams. We are balancing, flowing, breathing and connecting with the sound of Om.
Sahasrara Chakra (Higher consciousness - the crown centre)
Creating strength and flexibility for the possibility of sitting in a steady and pain free seat/asana to connect and merge with the Divine. Balance and Hip openers with the option of contemplation in lotus/padmasana.
Enjoy One Hour of Vinyasa Flow Yoga dedicated to the Five Elements
Element of Earth and Elephant Headed God Ganesh - Root Chakra
The focus for our Earth practise and connection to the Root Chakra is grounding and solidity. Standing poses that create stability and strong connection through our legs and feet (or which ever body part touching the Earth). We connect to the Mula Bandha - an awareness of the pelvic floor.
£4.99 (recorded 22/08/11)
Element of Water and Sacral Chakra
In the Water element we have moment, fluidity and flow. Postures to enhance our awareness of the Water Element and Swadisthana Chakra are hip openers, standing or seated. Our hips have the potential of so much movement - so much expression.
£4.99 (recorded 23/08/11)
Element of Fire and Naval Chakra
The element of Fire and Manipura Chakra. Strength, power and Solar energy. Your awareness of your individual Self. Core strength and self empowerment.
£4.99 (recorded 24/08/11)

£4.99 (recorded 25/08/11)
