Never Stop Moving--A Refreshed Scientific/Spiritual Yoga





Hilma Af Klint

Holding Poses = Contracting muscles/ligaments---NO, No, no...anti-refreshing

Releasing: swaying, reaching, squatting-rocking in poses: “following-the-pose”

Moving is dynamic and blends body areas.

Slow, slow flowing: also allows for listening to what is stretching, and how that which is stretching shifts.  This improves balance as parts of the body that are not attended to ARE attended to.

Flowing is essentially releasing and releasing optimizes flexibility, and flowing regularly over time strengthens groups of muscles throughout the body and relates or integrates seemingly disparate areas together.vs. isolates specific muscles.

Deeper body-MIND: slowing, flowing, listening, relaxing stretching

Not lengthening muscles and ligaments, but rather releasing nerve spindles in muscles and ligaments


Yoga Metta: kindness yoga: can do for hours were one wanting to do this.
