FAQ
ARE THERE PREREQUISITES?
Not really. If this is your first experience with anything to do with yoga please download these 2 forms so I can keep you safe.
That said, all yoga is cumulative, so even if your last class was years ago, you’ll be fine. Fear not.
If you have any concerns please contact Ida.
PRACTICES: More about..
Practice implies not knowing, not finished, not ready. We are in learning mode. We are teachable. There are many ways to practice Yoga, the tree is wide and deeply rooted. Without practice, information stays in the mental field. It never gets to the body. The various practices of yoga help us integrate. We need to experience yoga not just understand it intellectually. Even if your interest takes you into a study of Vedic texts it is recommended that you use meditation as your primary practice.
Here’s a partial list of some of what we will practice together:
- Breathing techniques (Pranayama) to increase relaxation, decrease stress response and release fear of the unknown.
- Meditation techniques to calm & quiet the mind promoting clear & focused thinking.
- Gentle hatha yoga postures (Asana) to strengthen, create more flexibility, and increase vitality.
- Guided Yoga Nidra to release long held tensions in the body and create space for new attitudes.
- Expressive movement for integration and to expand creativity.
- Deep Listening to support emotional processes and improve relationships with others.
- Toning (Nada Yoga) techniques for overall well-being and to reduce snoring.
- Mudras for accessing the subtle/causal body.
DO I HAVE TO SHARE/TALK?
Satya is the Sanskrit word for truth. To speak our truth is a sacred right and a vital part of our healing. To listen to another speak her truth is equally sacred. Speaking and Listening without feedback, allows us to practice putting words together, in new ways, however pleasant, unpleasant, comfortable, or not.
Sharing might be a ‘trigger’ word for you? What we do practice is what I call deep listening.
Our methods of communicating have undergone radical change in recent times. This only adds to the challenge of speaking truth. BEYOND WORDS is a series of programs focusing on the yoga of communication. Contact Ida for more information.
