Upper Back & Nyasa Meditation - 60 Minutes

Allison Miller

February 10 2023 • Duration: 1 Hour

A gentle balancing practice that includes some standing postures, balancing asana with breath to create an experience that isn't too energizing, or too relaxing, but just a bit of both. Many of the postures are targeted at the upper back body - improving mobility and strengthening here.
We use a pigeon or lizard pose (which is intended for opening the front of the body, psoas), and should not be practiced if you have any hip mobility issues. Always practice with an attitude of compassion toward your body, "no pain, no pain."
Ending with a Nyasa meditation, using a breath count that is relaxing and soothing to the nervous system.
