Shanti Shakti

Holistic Self-Care, Healing, & Wellness on Jeju

Another class is coming soon...Now accepting requests!

Take care of yourself as you practice!

Prior to beginning any practice that will necessitate physical exertion, it's recommended that to seek the counsel and support of a primary care physician.
Physical practice sequences should be accessible to all levels of yoga practitioners, with some advanced postures incorporated, often with variations provided for yoginis who are newer to this practice. Descriptive verbal cues are provided for alignment, and the sequence "mapping" has been provided so that you are able to preview the flow of postures. Review peak (apex) postures and consider what, if any, assistive equipment (chair, wall, pillow, block) might be necessary for you to settle comfortably into the practice, considering your unique needs & goals.
Listen foremost to your own body as you practice. If at any time a posture feels intense or you need a break, resting in child's pose or a simple seated posture will allow you to regain focus, stamina and strength.
Please don't exert yourself beyond your own physical capability and/or limitations.
Do find your edge; that sweet spot between "effort" and "surrender." Do take things slow and steady, favoring conscious, steady movement and breath control over excessive or jolty physical flexion or opening that forces your body into submission.
Yoga shouldn't hurt; rather it's a practice of preserving presence, patience, & peace. It's impossible to be at peace and fully present if our actions cause physical, mental, or emotional anguish. We use body and breath to unify our systems and cultivate stillness & strength of body and mind. Participate patiently to observe/receive, without judgment, whatever you are capable of accomplishing today.

No longer a problem with virtual practice 🤣

Fart away, enjoy the release; no one is close enough to you to be bothered by it!

COVID-19 quarantine getting you down?

Take a trip to higher planes of consciousness.

No need to social distance from yourself.
