Embrace Calm: Yoga and Mindfulness for Everyday Peace
Being a Yoga and Mindfulness class, there is more talking at the beginning than usual as I unpack the theme a bit.
Ever feel like your mind is running a marathon while your body is stuck in traffic? In this episode of the 'Yoga by Nature Podcast', Morven Hamilton shares a soothing blend of yoga and mindfulness to help you find your inner calm. Drawing inspiration from Judith Lasater's 'Living Your Yoga' and Mark Williams' 'Mindfulness', Morven brings a thoughtful approach to each pose and breath.
She starts with a brief chat about the concept of 'sthira sukham asanam'—finding steadiness and ease in every posture. If you’re eager to jump straight into the yoga session, feel free to skip the first four minutes. The episode features gentle forward bends, perfect for those with tight hamstrings, and wraps up with a loving-kindness meditation aimed at fostering self-compassion.
Whether you're new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, this episode offers practical insights and gentle encouragement to integrate mindfulness into your daily life. Tune in and give yourself the gift of peace and kindness.
