Hatha Heart and Hips
By Dhaujee Rose on Dec 7, 2021
We process emotions in the heart and store them in the hips. In this hatha inspired flow, we take it slow and work through the emotional kinks we may be hiding. We spend time in some of our favorite challenge poses like bound half moon and extended side angle that invigorate both the hips and heart. A strong breath carries us through it all! After we've built the heat standing, we slow it down with a floor sequence offering long, releasing holds. Enjoy this challenging practice, your hips and heart will appreciate it!
