Solstice Class - Emotional Release (6/17/25)

Allison Miller

June 17 2025 • Duration: 49 Minutes

This class begins with a meditation using heavy emotions and gratitude - finding equanimity and balance in the face of difficult emotions. Moving through a few kundalini and qigong inspired movements to release emotions, using the breath. Settle in for a closing meditation to soak up the rays of the solstice sun.

Quote from Tara Brach that coincides with our emotions meditation today:
“We know the Jedi warriors in Star Wars, they did a discipline training– practices of mindful awareness, patience, clarity, balance– so that they could meet fears and anger and hatred and not have those energies dominate. This is exactly what allowed Luke to step beyond anger and remember his father's goodness. He needed the training.”
Keeping in mind that all emotions are welcome but it is part of our training to not let the dark ones take over!
