Yoga for Fall


Yoga is a practical path to a peaceful way of being, a deeper understanding of Self and world, and a daily reminder of the sacred nature of existence. 

To balance the dry, mobile, cold, rough qualities of those windy fall days, a yoga practice should encourage good circulation and gently warm the body, without taxing the joints or causing tension.  A soothing pranayama like Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breath) is recommended at the change of seasons.  To learn a simple joint mobility sequence, and some subtle flows for circulating prana, check out an Ayurvedic Yoga class this fall.
