Steadiness and Freedom

Season 1 Episode 105 | 26m 46sVideo has Closed Captions

Working with contraction and expansion and managing the dualities in life.

Everything in life pulses in a pattern of dualities: birth and death, day and night, yes and no. On our mats, the primary relationship we work with is between contraction and expansion. We contract muscles to find steadiness while also expanding through our bones to experience freedom. Understanding this helps manage the inevitable ups and downs of life. Explore this connection in Triangle Pose.
