Crystal Magic Yoga (all level)
Bring your crystals to yoga!! When we bring the vibration of crystals into our own vibrational field, the resonance of the two frequencies dance and balance one another in graceful harmony. This is a sacred space for us to learn about, share about, form our own personal understanding of and relationship to these precious gifts of Mother Earth. We work with them and evoke their vibrations to help manifest, heal, evolve, and deepen our intuition all through the vehicle of our yoga practice.
This class will incorporate intuitive crystal meditation with Hatha “all level” yoga. In addition to asana poses, pranayama/breathwork and meditation, students will strengthen their intuitive senses allowing Self Love and Care to flow. You will flow through life’s waves with more ease and miracles will manifest.
*Special Instructions: Please bring 1 to 7 of your own crystals. We will charge them with our personal Sankulpa or intention and it is recommended that you work with the same crystal(s) over a period of time for more potent results.
**A small number of crystals will be available for those who forget or don’t have their own yet. These will be cleansed and returned to the teacher at the close of every class. Students are responsible for keeping track of their own crystals and the studio is not responsible for lost or damaged crystals.
