DAY 4 OF 30
- Name of Studio: Core Power Yoga Austin
- Style of Class: Heated Power
- Instructor: Joel Homme
The best natural light in a studio that I’ve been to thus far. Joel taught a powerful flow sequence which made me sweat like a melting snowman. He had this calming demeanor and special connection with all the regular students. We were reminded to “breathe in together and breathe out together”, which allowed for lots of energy to be built up in the studio.
MORE WORDS.
LESSON LEARNED:
Joel reminded us that you need is a light heart and quality breath. I made this my intention for the class. I think about the quality of my breath during practice A LOT. What I don’t think about often is the weight of my heart. To move with a light heart is to move with the flow of life. I tend to let things weigh heavy on my heart so this idea of having a light heart brought whole new dimension to my practice. Even though I began moving with a light heart it felt as if I was leading with my heart and my movements began to flow smoothly. I realized I was thinking less and feeling more — as yoga should be.
