(30 min YOGA) Summer Solstice Flow w/ Meg Elaine

This flow practice is inspired by the energy of the zodiac sign, Aquarius, which reminds us of our connection to the collective. This is SO important within our yoga practice! Class begins with a sweet invitation for self massage on the areas of the face, head, neck, and shoulders. The sequence is designed to bring awareness to the ankles and calves, both of which are ruled by Aquarius. Class ends in true Aquarius fashion - with several minutes of freedom to choose your own adventure and pick whatever postures resonate with you! Feel free to utilize the reflection questions after class in journaling or meditation form. How does your yoga practice ripple into other areas of your life? What, beyond yourself, motivates you to come back to this practice of self love and inquiry? When you are able to tend to your individual needs, how does that allow you to better show up for community?

Welcome to your celebration of the Summer Solstice, aka Litha! This class is intended to honor this tipping point in our year - the longest day of the year! This is an amazing place to create our intentions - where would we like to devote the energy we’ve collected throughout the building of this year?

This class focuses on balancing postures and feeling our connection to our feet, while connecting to the light and life of the sun. A reminder to remain grounded and rooted as we express, embody, and share our intentions moving forward. As always, hold space to listen to any variations your body desires along the way; cultivate that inner knowing and allow it to be expressed physically.

ABOUT SUMMER SOLSTICE:

The word “solstice” comes from the Latin "solstitium," which means “sun stands still.” Ancient cultures around the world celebrated this time of year, also called Midsummer, or Litha (LEE-tah), as everything from a potent fire festival to a time for honoring the space between Heaven and Earth. This class is designed to reflect the celebration of this time of year in our bodies! Hope you enjoy this day and this practice.
