Yoga Foundations with Amy G.
Balance your effort in practice with the yogic principles of Sthira and Sukha, Tadasana spine, core activation and joint alignment.
In our practice and our life we’re always aiming to achieve balance through all of our systems, called homeostasis. If you work too hard all the time and don’t have time for rest, rejuvenation, play, and you might burn out. But if you’re too relaxed, loose, lethargic, lazy or undisciplined, nothing is achieved and used to its fullest potential.
To reach your full potential both on and off the mat, get to know Sthira and Sukha so you can find a balance of how much effort you are exerting and how much ease you have in the movement.
Sthira: steadiness, presence, strength, alertness, discipline
Sukha: ease, softness, lightness, joy, sweetness.
