Energy animates all life and needs to flow freely in the human body for optimum well-being. It has many different names, from Prana, Chi, Qi, Ki, but no matter what you call it, it is the life force that animates and nourishes the complex inter-woven systems of the physical, emotional and mental body.

Ultimately, we are seeking homeostasis or balance where the energy is neither excessive or stagnant. The Goldilocks effect.

Day to day energy stagnation is a normal part of our modern-day life, for example: after long periods of sitting. But this kinds of stagnation is easily  brought back into harmony with a few simple yoga poses. It is when the energy is left stagnant for too long that dis-ease arises. This is why daily yoga is prescribed for health and longevity.

Given the right environment the body’s self-healing wisdom is able to work its magic. The body is designed to restore and reset but requires healthy flowing of energy to do so. Nourishing the body with daily movement helps release the tensions that get in the way.

In the Moving Energy Yoga practice, yoga poses are held longer, we include gentle micro-movements or pulsing, which increases the potency of the poses to stir the rivers of energy, always keeping in mind it’s not about creating the perfect Triangle, but rather, healing the body.

You will notice how quickly your flexibility returns, your energy levels will shift, you will sleep better, your mental clarity will surprise you and healthy weight loss is easily restored.

Emphasis is placed on feeling and bringing greater levels of awareness into the body while mindfully directing breath through tension pockets. We use intuition to initiate small pulses, gentle rocks or micro movements as the yogi feels organically guided to do.
