Winter inward, Spring awakening

Winter is a great time to go inward, take your practice to a deeper level. During these cold, dark months, taking the mat out and warming your being with several rounds of sun salutations or simply lying right down on the floor doing some slow, easy twists-is so rejuvenating!
But the promise of Spring, the sun shining in the window earlier, the birdies chirpping-makes for a new sense of vigor in the home practice! As the light cheers the soul, remember to take deep breaths and express your appreciation each time you practice.Try something new you saw in a yoga magazine or online! Take a class from a different teacher! Practice a pose that, in the past, has been a challenge! Awaken a new sense of being as the snow melts away, and the first green starts to show!
