For no other reason, except I love to incorporate shaky eggs in the yoga class &amp; it felt just right for spring.<br /><br />We began the class closing our eyes &amp; visualizing an egg, any shape, size, color we wanted. I asked the question imagine "what comes out of this egg? It could be anything you choose it to be..." Here are just some of the responses...<span style="font-style: italic;">a bird, a chic, a penguin, a dog, egg yolk, a turtle/tortoise, a jaguar. </span>For each of these ideas we began by shaping our bodies into a little pose as if inside and protected by a shell. Imagine.<br /><br />We beautifully and slowly transitioned to the next phase of life being this animal as if it were the first time coming out of our shell!<br /><br />This theme is so clever. The classes were filled with learning points, traditional yoga poses, breathing, self-expression, affirmation, and so much more than I could have imagined, and we did!Jodihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16416747681976386944noreply@blogger.com
