Meditation is Hard

In Dimensions of Wellness  •  by Melissa, August 27, 2019  •

What I Eat in a Day

In Nutrition and Eats  •  by Melissa, August 20, 2019  •

How to Modify Half Moon

In Yoga  •  by Melissa, July 16, 2019  •  
Awhile back, I posted an article about sensing stability in yoga poses. As a teacher, I find the concepts of dimensionality, base of support, and sensory input to be valuable as general guidelines for all asanas. However, students often still have questions about individual asanas....
