In this episode we do some work on opening the shoulders. I actually created this class as a warmup to the “Gettin’ Into Class!” I did last week that was focused on handstands. I know I probably should have done this class first, put what can you do. 🙂
Also, I talk about one of my favorite quotes from the vijnanabharava tantra. If you don’t know about this spiritual text, it lays out the tantric philosophy of innate goodness and simple ways to find the goodness within yourself. So, here’s what I read from the vijnanbharava tantra, stanza #51:
Fix your mind in your heart when engaged in worldly activities, thus agitation will disappear and in a few days the indescribable will happen.
I just love how simple and straight ahead this is. And, you know, it’s probably true! Think if the whole world took the time out for a few days just to be in their heart — no question the indescribable would definitely happen for the benefit of us all. While we waiting for the whole world to get on board, it’s up to us. Enjoy! John
