Kicking off your day with an energizing morning yoga practice can be a beautiful way to find focus and feel more balanced and empowered in any season. That’s especially true in kapha season (aka spring), as we shake off winter’s doldrums and feel our creativity firing up.
This kapha-balancing sequence offered by yoga teacher, author, and Ayurvedist Claire Raggozzino focuses on dynamic movement with longer holds, chest openers, and twists to cleanse and strengthen the body. Back-bending and twisting encourage opening the heart to help you relax and release attachments.
While practicing this sequence on an empty stomach in the morning is optimal, you can also flow through it in the afternoon, several hours after eating. As you move through this practice, ask yourself, “Where can I create more space in my life? How can I soften my inner resistance to change?”
