props! props! props! ✨✨ . . they are not just for beginning yoga students, my friends. I’m a big advocate for using props in yoga practice because they help to access the benefits of the poses while keeping correct alignment for your body and giving great support. . . look at me with all ma props!
your feet do not need to touch the ground to do yoga. you do not need to be able to downward dog to do yoga. no fancy poses or positions required. anyone and everyone can do yoga - Id love to hold space for YOU to explore and find what feels good 🌟✨🌟
Varuna Mudra: stemming from the Vedic God Varun who ruled over the bodies of water, the Varuna Mudra (mudra = seal) helps the practice balance the water element in the body. . . This gesture reminds me of the saying ‘go with the flow’ - not only does this relate to our physical being such as blood and fluid circulation, water content, and fluid retention/intake, but the Varuna Mudra also helps to balance the emotional body, present clear and intuitive communication, adapt to change, and open the mind. . . go with the flow my friends and find magic in the spaces between! #yogawithelise #varunamudra
