A slow love for yourself. Uncomplicated. No rush. Sure. Stable. Consistent. You deserve that love. 💘😉 In a society that’s obsessed with fast, bright and now, here at 2Y Functional Yoga School we believe in slow. Slowing down to the rhythm of your breath, be it in a yin \ yang yoga practice, breathwork or meditation. Healing & learning happen in the parasympathetic nervous system. 🧠✨ - - - - #slowlove #yinyoga #slowdown #healing #slowismedicine #yinyang #2yfunctionalyogaschool ☯️ join 2Y Functional Yoga School membership waitlist for a founding members discount and special bonuses. 👉Find it in my bio.

Americans are conditioned and pressured to strive for more. More money, more status, more power, more capital, etc. It’s exhausting and truly Sisyphean. The answer to this, I think, is to embrace idleness. The idea to embrace doing nothing for nothing’s sake. To be present, to say good morning, to take a few minutes to sit and consider the beauty of life. Italy has taught me the importance of slowing down, to soak in the pleasure of being in the moment. To get curious about the sensations that occur when pausing to notice them. Now having returned to the States, I commit to the practice of slowing down and seeking pleasure in the everyday “mundaneness”. & I invite you to all practice this with me. Stop and revel in the joy of this banana bread granola. The way it fills your house with a warm and comforting smell. The crunch and sweetness it adds to your morning yogurt. The smile that spreads over your loved one’s face when you give them a taste. I want to carry the art of European slow living with me. If I can get you to slow down too, even for just a moment while making this granola, then yes, I have succeeded. Head to my website for this healthy & comforting granola recipe that inspires the value of slowing down. #slowismedicine #embraceslowliving #pleasuremedicine #seekbeauty #thegoldenyarrow #bananabread #bananabreadgranola #healthygranola #italia #slowliving #regulateyournervoussystem

🫶🏼 A massive THANK YOU 🙏🏻 to all those whom I’ve only just met this year 🤗 From those who: ☯️ are new to Qigong/Tai Chi & Mindfulness, ☯️ have tried a class/workshop with me or hope to, ☯️ simply follow here, ☯️ have helped lift me up, given me space, shown & taught me so much wisdom & encouraged me along the way of my own Qigong journey too. What an absolute honour to have you here along with me as we each keep nourishing & nurturing our body, mind & soul with Mindful Movement & Meditation practices. These Ancient & previously sacred techniques can be a little slow, gentle & unusual to experience, however, embracing our need for this timeout for selfcare is vital for ourselves in today’s world. Gentleness is what our beautiful world needs right now. Please choose to be gentle on YOU. It’s often the subtle, gentle & softer approach that can benefit us the most. This is how I find Qigong to be: like medicine 💊 that slowly flows & filters into where you need it most. Our Qi lifeforce energy is always working with us even if we can’t physically feel it. It’s when we slow down & feel that we sense it’s presence. You are such a gift 💝 for simply being here & being you. Keep honoring 😇 what you need & giving back to your own Health & Wellbeing so that you can be your best self growing Into greater Harmony ☯️ 🧘♂️🪷 Softly does it into the change from 2022 into 2023 for me 🍃 🪷 Happy New Year 🥳💗 🥰 @tinybuddhaofficial If you feel like some gentle exercise in the new year, get in contact with Mel in January. I can show you how to do slow flowing Mindful Movement Qigong ~ akin to a Moving Meditation based at Long Jetty, Central Coast NSW 🇦🇺 🧘♂️🌀☯️ #slowmovement #goslow #gentleness #gentlemovement #begentlewithyourself #slowdown #slowingdown #slowismedicine #slowingdownismedicine #intentionalmovement #mindfulmovement #mindfulmovementandmeditation #flowingmovement #flowingexercise #lowpactmovement #lowimpactexercise #mindbodybreath #mindbodymedicine #mindbodywellness #mindfulliving #livingmindfully #mindfulexercise #qigongforhealth #medicalqigong #daoyin #daoistyoga #inharmonyqigong #centralcoastnswqigong #taichiqigong #centralcoastnsw

“Teaching and practicing relaxation is radical in a world that worships busy.” - Sarah Garden. This is for those of us who need a little bit more rest than others and a little bit more slow than others. Also for those of us who choose to share this art through more contemplative practices: slow vinyasa, yin yoga, restorative yoga, meditation... I know it might feel like we are going against the grain sometimes, but it is nevertheless detrimental to the sanity of our society, to slow down. Mother energy is needed. She who slows us down, cocoons us in her belly, lets us rest when we need it. Lets us know that no matter how radically different we are, we are always loved. We are always good. “All that’s slow, makes us glow.” - - - - #yinyogateacher #yinyoga #restanddigest #mothervibes #slowmonday #yogabeyondthemat #yoga #soma #slowyoga #yogateachers #yinyogateachertraining #yinyogateachertrainer #slowismedicine #childspose #cocooning

(ESP abajo) “Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear? - Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching Yin and yang go beyond the traits that govern dualities of the world. Internally they're traits that we can respond from in any situation. Yang tells us to act, react and do. Yin tells us to yield, reflect and let things happen. Sometimes we must yield before proceeding forward. The art of working with both express maturity and wisdom. 🙏🏾 ---- “¿Tienes la paciencia de esperar hasta que el lodo se asiente y el agua esté clara? - Lao Tsé, Tao Te Ching Yin y yang van más allá de los rasgos que rigen las dualidades del mundo. Internamente son rasgos de los que podemos responder en cualquier situación. Yang nos dice que actuemos, respondamos y hagamos. Yin nos dice que cedamos, reflexionemos y dejemos que las cosas sucedan. A veces debemos ceder antes de seguir adelante. El arte de trabajar con ambos expresa madurez y sabiduría. 🙏🏾 - - - - #yinyoga #yinyogaquotes #yinyang #grilleymethod #yogaquotes #yogaquotes #yoga #swanpose #yinyogalife #grilleymethod #slowismedicine
Y I N I have 2 yoga loves in my life, the first is of course Kundalini, Yin is a close second. Kundalini being the Yang & Yin being the Yin, they balance each other beautifully Friday 13th May, 7.30-9.30pm th lovely Charlotte will be holding a two-hour yin yoga workshop 'S L O W is medicine' Where we revisit and remind ourselves of the tools we have within to ground and rejuvenate ourselves. To soothe our nervous system, create space within, and rest deeply. We will work with Pranayama (breath work), acupressure release points, and of course a long, slow, full-body yin yoga practise covering all the major organs and their corresponding energetic and emotional release points, and a full-body stretch and release of your fascia and connective tissue. Leave the workshop as a rejuvenated, deeply meditated version of yourself. Slow IS medicine. Yin yoga is a practise where we nurture the body on every level as we turn our awareness inwards. We hold floor-based shapes or poses for several minutes using blankets, cushions, pillows, bolsters, and anything else that allows you to feel supported, cosy, and comfortable. In this state of surrender we relax, and release deeply held tensions, mentally, emotionally, and physically. Charlotte has taught yin yoga for many years and weaves into her teachings her love of Chinese medicine and the meridian energy system, the Chakra system, and her grounded and very calming presence. Join us! @charlottewisewellbeing #yinyoga #yinworkshop #yinyogasurrey #yinyogaworkshop #slowismedicine #rejuvenate #yinyang

YinMedicine for digestion. (ESP👇🏾y 👉🏾) In western society due to the fast pace we consider “normal”, it is very common to eat on the go, order take out and in return have heavy, slow digestions While treating digestion is something that goes beyond the scope of any one yoga post, sequence or cup of peppermint tea: 🧑🍳 I hope to provide here a yin yoga recipe to help boost your digestion from a subtle body standpoint. Hold each pose for 2 - 4 minutes. My reference for this sequence is based on yogāsana in relation to TCM, āyurveda, myofascial pathways and energetic currents of the body. TCM usually considers the spleen & stomach meridians amongst other energy channels as culprits of bad digestion while āyurveda will normally aim at pacifying vata and improving agni / digestive fire. 🙌🏾 We go over creating sequences with energetic themes in module 3. The Spine of yin yoga teacher training. Dates for 2023. Stay tuned YOGA NERD NOTES 🤓 From a TCM and yin yoga āsana lense the general aim is to compress and create tension where the tendinomuscular meridians of the stomach and spleen run through: quadriceps, rectos abdominus. Also note the ankle in short step dragon is stressing the same stomach & spleen meridians through tension in the back leg and compression in the front leg. From an āyurvedic lense the target is to twists so as to stimulate samana vayu. 🔥 #slowismedicine #yinyoga #yinyogaposes #yinyogateachertrainer #subtlebody #yinyogaandtcm #yogaandayurveda #yinyogasequence #restanddigest #yinyogaposes #yogafordigestion #yinyogalove #yinmedicine

What’s the rush? Viva slow Mondays. Prioritize yourself. And I know depending on where you work this sounds absurd, and maybe even impossible, but if so than think of how you can give yourself one moment to take it easy today. Maybe it’s a yoga class (yin and restorative preferably for stress), a massage or just a tea while taking a sun bath outside with your eyes closed. Slow Monday my friends.

I went to the downtown post office here in Barcelona the other day and shipped another personally signed book to a very special student. 💌 This powerhouse of a women, without knowing, taught me very early on that teaching Yin was my gift. 🤲 👐Here are some reasons why I love Yin and or hence, why I love teaching it. 1. It is important to remind people to slow down and increase interoception while chilling out in the matrix of their fascia. 2. Deep stretching reduces inflammation. Research field done by Dr. Helena Langevin. 3. Humans need to access theta state where deep processing happens. 4. People need to remember who they are past all the BS standard placed on us by society. At the heart of the practice lies such simplicity intertwined with anatomical complexities and deep healing. 🫀 Just sharing some insights today on what Yin Yoga means to me.

While treating insomnia is something that goes way beyond the scope of any one yoga post, pose or cup of warm golden milk: I hope to provide here a short and easy yin yoga recipe to help you get some Z’s. 😴 My reference point for the sequence is based on yogāsana in relation to TCM, āyurveda, myofascial pathways and energetic currents of the body. TCM usually considers the heart & liver meridians amongst other energy channels as culprits of insomnia while āyurveda will normally aim at pacifying vata for rest and overall health. 👉🏾POSES and the why. 1. OPEN WINGS to stimulate the front sheath of the upper body through where the heart meridian runs. Also, to help ease the diaphragm and calm the breath without going into a backbend that can aggravate vata from the Ayurvedic energy body realm. 2min hold each side. 2. BUTTERFLY WITH CLOSED WINGS will stimulate through the arm position both the fire element pair (heart/ yin and small intestine/ yang) while targeting in the lower body the adductor muscles where the liver meridians run through. 4 min total 2 min hold per arm. 3. TWISTED ROOTS to help tone the stomach, spleen, kidneys, and gall bladder meridians. Sometimes also accountable for insomnia in TCM. 2 min per side. 4. śAVĀSANA because one of the best remedies for insomnia, stress and dis-ease is apropriate movement followed by rest.

(ESP en comentarios) In modern day society we think having a lot of energy means being fast and not ever having to rest, but in yoga this could never be further from the truth, especially if you want longevity. We can only rest to recover. We can only slow down to reach further. We can only nurture to come back stronger. We can only rest to prāṇafy / energize. The beginning of the way to more energy starts with rest and this is where our journey will begin. My next post will be a yin yoga sequence for deep rest with a before bedtime ritual, but first and foremost in honor of prāṇafying What does prāṇa mean to you? I’ll share my answer in stories tomorrow. I would love to know what you all have to say. 👇🏾 - - - - #yinyoga #restandrestore #pranafying #yoga #snailpose #posturadelcaracol #halasana #slowandsteadywinstherace #allthingsyin #yinyogasequence #yinyogalove #yinyogalife #slowismedicine #slowlife #yoga #yogalifestyle

Eat foods that calm you. (ESP abajo) Drink fluids that hydrate you. Do Yoga practices that chill you out. Healing happens in the parasympathetic nervous system. Have a great and slow move into the weekend. ------- IR LENTO ES MEDICINA Coma alimentos que te calmen. Beba líquidos que te hidraten. Haz prácticas de yoga que te relajen. La sanación ocurre en el sistema nervioso parasimpático.

There's a lot happening in the world around us that feels like it's beyond resolution... or at least external resolution in a tangible way. This has been a big catalyst for me this year to tune in to my own resources and establish how I can find inner resolution regardless of what's happening outside. We all have our own mental, emotional, and physiological responses to stress. As humans, we also have the ability to learn about this process and discover ways that we can help bring balance & ease back into our body and our life - even when things around us feel intense or triggering. One of these ways is a gentle, calming yoga practice 💛 See the link in my bio for 2 recorded YIN YOGA practices that I did for @coastalblissyoga online. ⬆️ It might be a nice way to unwind. You can also find over 80 guided practices on there from incredible teachers in the Tofino yoga community. If finding the finances for yoga is a challenge, send me a message and I might be able to help! #onlineyogapractice #yinyoga #yinyogaonline #restorativeyoga #coastalbliss #tofinoyoga #vancouverislandyoga #yinyogalove #yinyogateacher #yinyogalife #soften #slowdown #slowismedicine #feelgood #letgo #justbe
En un mundo que va rápido, elijo ir despacio. (Eng below) Un mantra mío que repito cuando mi mente se adelanta y mi corazón me susurra, “más despacio, por favor.” Necesito aquietarme para escuchar ese susurro... En un mundo que valora lo rápido, inmediato e visible, te recuerdo una frase de Rumi. “Trabaje en el mundo invisible tan duro como lo haces en el visible.” Agregó a esto que para trabajar lo invisible tenemos que ir muy muy despacio. Ir despacio es medicina. ——- In a world that goes fast, I choose to go slow. (Eng below) A mantra of mine that I repeat when my mind races ahead and my heart whispers, "slow down, please." I need to get real quiet to hear that whisper... In a world that values fast, immediate and visible, here’s a another reminder from Rumi, "Work in the invisible world as hard as you do in the visible." And I add, To work the invisible we have to go very very slow. Slow is medicine. 🐌 - - - - - #slowismedicine #slowwinstherace #yinyoga #yoga #healingmantra #breakupwithbusy #rumi #theinvisiblerealm #healing #slugsaremypoweranimal #lotuspose #rumi #yonimudra #padmasana #yogainthecity 📸 @katie_safia
COVID May have forced some of us to slow down and in that slowness, we may have made some important new discoveries. As the world picks up the pace again, have you been able to take any lessons you learned about your life’s pace back to your “day to day” life? Have you been able to “Slow down” and #savour more things. #stepintoseptember Pay attention to the little details! Like all all the lady bugs hiding in the grass, the invigorating smell of being in the trees in the fall, hold someone’s gaze just long enough to connect a wee bit deeper ... slowing down is a great way to get drunk on your own life! There is so much we miss when we wish our lives away and rush through our days! Happy Friday! I hope you can S.L.O.W down today #happylife❤️ #slowdown #rechargeyourself #drunkonyourlife #enjoytheday #slowissensual #slowismedicine
Practicing slow with Mary Oliver. Letting this Friday roll over me in waves of unabashed delight. This is my new oath. To practice what I love. Even if it’s in the smallest way. Every day practice. It begins here. This is me declaring it to you. You are my witness. My full moon vow. ⭐️
Cacao + Savasana = Saturday Sadhana . . . Living your yoga can be such a simple thing as drinking your tea or coffee mindfully. #Sadhana often refers to spiritual practice. A daily routine of presence. Often when we are in the early years of our yoga practice, our sadhana can be a disciplined routine with hours of asana practice, meditation and chanting. (maybe already at 4.30 in the morning) Every day. When your practice matures you may explore that your practice is loosening up. Maybe you are finding yourself in meditation while sitting on the bus. Maybe you are chanting while having a bath or in the shower. Or maybe you are living more hours of your day AWAKE ✨ #spiritualpractice When you cook, shopping groceries or cleaning your house. Your meditation practice can still be hour long (👌🏻) and maybe you still are enjoying a 2 hours vigorous asana at 5 in the morning (no, not me anymore) But in my experience I didn’t have the need for all that when I grew into my practice. It took some time of course. Many years of practice. And discipline. Dedication. I still love my meditation practice and I’m hard on Yoga Nidra and Restorative ✨ + Chanting My sadhana is softly disciplined on rest and being true to me. Listening. Being in nature. Being with me. Being with my relationships. Being with everything that life’s serving us. And having a cacao ceremony with the love of my life ♥️ MORE in history . . . “Everything can be sadhana. The way you eat, the way you sit, the way you stand, the way you breathe, the way you conduct your body, mind and your energies and emotions – this is sadhana. Sadhana does not mean any specific kind of activity, sadhana means you are using everything as a tool for your wellbeing “ - #sadhguru 🧘🏾♂️ . . #solskogenyoga #livingsadhana #meditation #cacaoceremony #yogini #slowgini #slowismedicine #thepractice #soulawakening #soulpurpose #livingyouryoga #livingyoga #livingexploration #yoganidra #restorativeyoga #savasana #kakao #cacaolovers

Y O G A . . In my teachers seat I'm fully immersed and integrated in the moment. The UNFOLDING happens in my everyday practice in every breath, every interaction and every second of this precious life 🌱 What is yoga for you? How it is unfolding? Below some wise words from Judith Lasater @judithlasater I couldn't agree more. . . . Q: What is your definition of yoga? My Answer: "All the practices of yoga create a habit of self reflection. And self reflection is always in the present moment. And when we are in the present moment we pay attention to our body and what it needs, we pay attention to the breath and how it reveals our emotional state, and we pay attention to the agitations of our mind and how we can forgive them and ourselves." #judithlasater . ✨ . #restorativeyoga #solskogenyoga #thepractice #slowismedicine #yogaeveryday #yoga #energienihvile #svadhyaya #SHAKTI #yoganorge #livingyoga #selfreflection

Have you been resting today? Restorative Yoga 🍬 Nap. 🍬 Yoga Nidra 🍬 Or maybe a combination? Only 20 minutes a day can make a huge difference. Yes everyday. If you want to stretch it try 30 min. Or maybe 40✨ It will only make you good. And you will probably build more energy over time. Clarity. Space. And once you've started, there is no turning back.

Daily Practice ✨ You don't always need lots of yoga props to practice Restorative Yoga. But you will need lots of pillows and blankets for sure. In this not so traditional set up I have 5 bolsters, 3 pillows, 1 big soft pillow, 4 blankets and 1 scarf ✨ Instead of bolsters you can use pillows and blankets. Jus be creative. Usually I make a neck support with a blanket for my students but in my own practice I prefer a soft pillow. I also need to have a pillow or two under my sacrum to get comfy. I sticky mat plus one wool mat.
