In preparing for an upcoming chakra energy series, I created a sequence to prepare the practitioner with an asana based practiced centered around movement of the spine. This is designed to help you understand where your awareness is regarding the health of your spine and better understand fluidity of movement.

Without a doubt my FAVORITE pose by far, something about this asana just feels so right, like my happy place when not on the beach. This pose never fails to surprise me, it never feels the same, there is no way to anticipate what is going to happen, and yes I fall out of it all the time! One of the few poses where my ego just lets go and the body and mind somehow pull this together.

This morning during practice, I was working a Kundalini Kryia which called for about 8 minutes or so of dancing. As is typical during moments like these, I have crazy flash-backs from the past where something pops into my mind that I have not thought about in years! This time is was a period in my life when as an undergraduate, one of my best friends and I would attend discos at the Queen Margaret Union, The University of Glasgow. Yes, that was a flashback to the early 80's!
