Qigong Yoga Fusion

This is a 10 min Women’s Morning Qigong Yoga Fusion to clear heat from your body. Heat that might cause perimenopause, menopause and postmenopausal symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety, restlessness, irritability, migraine headaches and sleeplessness.

We will tap the body to release anger, frustration, and irritation. There is also tapping to relieve depression. Focusing on relieving heart heat will support us in relieving anxiety and emotional overwhelm.

There are no props needed for this practice, not even a yoga mat!

Whatever goodness we have accumulated from our practice may we dedicate it towards the happiness and welfare of all.

VAGUS NERVE Restorative Yoga | YWM 693



This vagus nerve yoga nidra is designed to reset your nervous system from sympathetic activation or or dorsal shutdown. Whether you are feeling anxious and stressed or disconnected, depressed & drained of energy, this yoga nidra will engage neuroception to follow the three streams of awareness: inside your body, outside your body and in between to reset your vagus nerve.

In this Vagus Nerve Reset yoga nida, we invite deep relaxation. As I guide your awareness through your body, I invite a profound sense of stillness to envelop you. Breath awareness and practice will regulate and reset your vagus nerve. With each breath, we nurture connection to the present moment, fostering a sanctuary of peace within ourselves.

Through this practice, we cultivate a harmonious balance between body, mind, and spirit, tapping into the healing power of the vagus nerve to reset and restore inner calm.

Yoga to Let Go Into Love | Yoga with Melissa 689

Join Our Membership Community http://bit.ly/ywmmembership 

This yoga class is about being connected to the presence of love in moving meditation. When we take this time each day to be in the presence of love, we will feel the expansiveness of unconditional love in our lives. It is not a doing, but a letting go and softening that allows us to connect into the expansiveness, vibrance and radiance of our hearts. When we align with the unconditional love that already exists in our hearts we can let go of the striving to try to be better people. This yoga class allows us to slow down and make space for the love that is always and already present in our hearts. It is a devotional practice to love itself. 

The gentle standing yoga postures in this class will align you and your body so that your aura is attuned to the essence of love for your own healing and for all those you connect with in all directions and kind. This loving healing is gentle, grounding, warm, expansive, soft love and love that is always safe. 

Additionally we will tend to anything that is in the way that is blocking us from connecting to the love in our heart. Anything that is keeping us from serving from our hearts and allowing us to be connected to the frequency of love throughout our day. 

Join us in this gentle yoga flow as we trust and follow the currents of love inside to lead others with the heart, this including ourselves and our own internal guidance. It is an honour to practice with all of you spiritual healers, teachers and guides. 

Props Needed: None - this entire class is done standing
