GROUP GOALS: The 5 Elements of Practice, subtle bodies (prana + spirit) “developing the yoga brain” continued…
PRACTICE: Click here to visit the Ashtanga Collection with Grateful Yoga and ENJOY your asana practice. The physical practice is usually what finds us first, and what sustains us while we’re in this human form! It’s an important and vital part of it for many of is, but is still only 1 of the 8 limbs. The 5 Elements can come in handy thru many of the other 7 limbs as well…. As many practice hours as you wan, YTT1.
JOURNAL: Consider what is stated above, “the physical (asana) practice is usually what find us first” and that it’s usually the first part teachers start teaching… As a yoga teacher in training, and in profession, is it possible to integrate all 8 limbs into each offering? Or is it necessary? What do you feel is your passion about the practice and how do you translate that into your teaching? .5 hrs, YTT4.
REVIEW our new “Yoga Brain” Anatomy section and check out the addition for JULY 2024 expanding on TBI and teaching with Brain Health in mind!
READ: The Chemistry of Yoga by Danny Living. This article was first passed to me by David Williams and touches on the science of WHY the repetition of asana is so beneficial for the chemistry of our human bodies!
Practice Teaching: The Value Of Memorization (pranic-ly and spiritually).
Memorize a section of the traditional Ashtanga Sequence (*not the sun salutations). You can choose a series of standing postures or part of the primary/second series. Your YTT manual is a great resource for this! At least 5 postures.
Make flash cards, practice, repeat the names out loud, write it down, repeat. What is your memorization process? What helps? What doesn’t?
TEACH your memorized sequence. Show us your hard work by recording this and upload your practice teaching to the media album here!
DID YOU COMPLETE ALL OF THE ABOVE!? How many hours did you track total? I’m trying to get a feel for how much time JUST this online portion of the 300 CLUB + BEYOND takes up in a month. Let me know your feedback AND that you’ve completed this task list!
