revolution of Artful Living: 75 min Jivamukti Open

This is a dynamic Jivamukti Open level class, the asana is oriented around hip opening, kurmasana is the peak posture. We explore the teachings of the Demi-Goddess Saraswati Devi, and our very lives as Political action. "Politic refers to the tribe, the people, the other folk we live and thus interact with on all levels. We live under the same sun, we breathe the same air, we drink the same water. Our individual actions affect the communal sun, air and water. Reflecting upon that - it becomes apparent that all actions are political. We can’t help but to be political. Everything each of us does as individuals affects the whole. To be politically active is to be conscious of how your actions affect the community and to strive to improve and contribute to the enhancement of that community. Yoga teaches that we have an individual body and a universal body, and when we perceive and care for both equally—when we try to see ourselves in others—then we are moving toward the enlightened state" -David Life

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PRACTICE WE CHANT:

Om A-eem Saraswatayai Namaha Om
“Om and salutations to the bestower of wisdom, intelligence, knowledge and creative artistic energy.” to find creative solutions to challenges which arise.

This class was recorded from my home as a Zoom call, from CA and around the globe. I call out the whole class and partially demonstrated (it was a video call). During a time while we are mainly staying at home, let us stay connected through practice and reverence. Join along and breathe with us.
