I’m back to my somewhat revised podcast with a grounding yoga practice. I’ll share a bit of what I’ve been doing in the months since I last recorded an episode, then guide you through a short yoga practice to help you connect to the Earth element in your body and to feel more grounded. You won’t need anything but your yoga mat for this practice.

While the yoga and other practices presented are intended to be accessible to most, please be open to practicing in an appropriate and safe way for you. It is recommended that you consult your physician before beginning any new exercise program and that at any time during a practice you feel nausea, dizziness, or pain you stop and seek medical advice. I accept no liability whatsoever for any damages arising from the use of my podcasts and, while I make all reasonable efforts to share accurate instruction, the podcast may contain unintended errors. Before all else, listen to your body and trust your inner knowing.

Yoga Nidra, also called yogic sleep, is a progressive relaxation and guided visualization that brings you to a state of deep rest and ignites your creativity and intuition. You are engaging in extreme self-care when you enjoy this Yoga Nidra experience.

Mercury retrograde has me revisiting things, like this episode that didn't get posted on time. Better late than never, and the practices are still very relevant in this post-eclipse waning moon energy. In it I share more about the Egyptian goddess Isis and her bird, the vulture. You'll hear about how vultures are an important part of our ecosystem, even in the Adirondacks, where they aren't technically natives but do the important work of cleaning up the animals who have been killed by cars on our not-so-animal-friendly roads. You'll get some tips on letting go of the past, and practice flying gracefully, like a vulture, in a 30-minute yoga practice.

During the lunar cycle of the Strawberry Moon, join me in getting to know the Egyptian goddess Isis, the mother of all. Find out why black bears mother like Isis and how the US Dept. of the Interior is making it harder for those mother bears. Then unroll your yoga mat for a practice to bring out your fierce creativity.

This episode continues the journey with Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and her association with healing waters. Find out how the Clean Air Act supports the health of Adirondack lakes and enjoy a yin-inspired yoga practice for the lung, kidney and urinary bladder meridians to support the flow of your internal water.
