Yoga for the Blood Moon

Being a self-proclaimed "moon loonie," I've been anticipating the arrival of this blood moon for quite some time now. (Read: What is a Blood Moon? via EarthSky)

It only seems fitting that I am scheduled to teach tonight, and cannot wait to harvest the lunar energy & share the yin-inspired and calming flows with my classes. Also, super excited that my Luna pants from Be Present are nice and clean, so perfect for tonight's classs



We'll be practicing the classic Chandra Namaskar in our Beginner's Yoga class, and digging a little deeper with Shiva Rea's Soma Manadala Namaskar in addition to the journey to Revolved Half Moon in our Multi-Level class.

Every month, the moon salutation is practiced to bring more yin aspects into a dominantly yang world. We flow through this sequence to channel the calming lunar energy, opening our bodies and minds to peace and relaxation.

Tonight's mantra is as follows: I am calm, I am comforted.

Stay tuned for a fun sequence, or come join me tonight at The Yoga Mat to harness the lunar energy!
