DEEP JOURNEY
Teacher Seán Johnson
PROPS: Blanket
LEVEL: All Levels
LENGTH: 1 hour, 38 minutes
STYLE: Serenity yoga
DESCRIPTION:
With his rich imagery and soothing voice, Seán guides you on a tranquil
journey through reclining, seated and standing poses to gently create physical,
mental and emotional flexibility. After an opening meditation on the breath,
and powerful relaxation excercises, you are invited to set your intention for
your practice - internally saying "namaste" to your own spirit, to chosen loved
ones, and to strangers. Then you are led through a gentle series of reclining
poses on your back to free the spine, open up fresh space in your joints, as
well as tone and energize the sides of your body. Move to seated postures
to continue to melt tension from your waistline and sides, ring out resistance
in your spine and stimulate energy in the legs. Between stages of rest in
child's pose, melt tension in the spine and hips with gentle flows from your hands
and knees. Then continue to awaken prana in the legs and hips with a series
of more challenging crescent lunges. Rise to standing for some deeper forward
bends, twists and side stretches. Return full circle to reclining on your back
for closing twists and be coaxed into a state of blissful peace for the final
phase of deep relaxation. The session concludes with a mantra prayer sung
by Seán and a chant for peace, "Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti". This class puts
a strong emphasis on side stretches, forward bending and twists.
