Retreat into Yourself
Release
PLAY WITH - butterfly, head-to-knee pose, reclined bound angle (supta baddha konasana), deer pose
EXPLORE - the use of props to surrender into
AWAKEN - a spacious experience of your body and awareness of mind
Retreat from the outside world into the sanctuary of your body and create a cosy nest to go deep into relaxation. If you have some bolsters or cushions or blankets to support your physical body, create a cocoon of serenity for yourself. Carve out some special time to support yourself as you surrender and let go in this yin-style practice.
