Greetings from YFL!!! Time to meet at the WALL for some last minute yoga prior to the holiday break for Thanksgiving!!! We will focus upon the use of the wall as a tool of resistance, alignment, and focus.

The Sanskrit focus is “Dhanya Vad”, or that place in our heart that exudes gratitude and thankfulness for all that we give, all that we receive, and all that we are as a being. Our supporting hand gesture or mudra is “Grounding”. This is the season for celebration, preparation, and participation. We find ourselves coming and going, thus grounding is essential toward full enjoyment of what the holidays are meant to represent. We place the left hand to the heart, and ground the right hand into the earth. Our meditation focus is “Gratitude” over this week of Thanksgiving festivities. The music provided for this week’s meditation time is Michael Hoppe’s “Silence of the Stars”.

A reminder that the studio is closed 11/23-11/26, in observance of Thanksgiving, but will re-open for its regular schedule of classes bright and early on Monday morning, 11/27. All classes will meet Monday through Wednesday of this week, excluding Nick’s 6:45 a.m. class on M/W, as he is on holiday break all week.

We look forward to helping you remain grounded, focused, and healthy through this wonderful time of the year!!! It will be another great week at YFL, although a short one!!! As always, we can’t wait to see you on the mat!!!—Namaste’, Deb
