Awakening: By Kheyala

My boy, who is nine, said to me, “Mom, I know it’s weird, but I don’t think I’m alive. I don’t think you’re alive either.”

Restorative Bridge Pose: By Christine Wushke

This is a wonderful restorative yoga pose for times when energy feels low, or sluggish.  This pose is very relaxing, and yet leaves you feeling refreshed and rested after just a few moments.

You may need to adjust the distance from the wall a few times to get yourself in the right position. The neck should feel very comfortable, with no pressure on it at all. Continue reading
