Feel free to use your bolster or block for support. You can do a lot of things with props in this fold. As you exhale, feel the body relax and begin to soak up the space your inhales create. As you continue to breathe, feel the expansion into your back as the breath moves in. Closing your eyes and breathing deep breaths feeling the fresh surge of oxygen moving through your belly, ribs, and chest. Spend some time here getting settled into the physical body. You can recline onto a bolster with the knees supported (as pictured) or you are welcome to lie on the mat as well. Props are a great way to make a yin sequence even more amazing. Try to have a few of these things (or something similar) nearby.

Check out this link for more information. Today’s poses will include a focus on: hips, hamstrings, spinal rotation/flexion/extension.Below you see a picture that shows the path of the kidney meridian lines. When there are blockages in these energetic pathways, not only is our mental state out of whack (anxiety, confusion, dullness) but our physical body can take on unnecessary stress (reproductive issues, urinary problems, pain in back/neck/throat). When our these lines are clear we can feel more vibrant, confident, and calm. When we have a lot of built up stress in the spine, hips, and legs – we need a release through those joints so the kidney meridian can flow energy effectively. The kidneys work to flush out the waste in the body so that blood can move purely and effectively to nourish our cells. Meridians are lines of energy that flow through the body and can affect various organs, circulation, and general function of the physical body and the state of your mental/emotional self. Today I am going to walk you through a sequence (about 60-75 minutes) that you can use to detox the back body and clear out blockages along the kidney meridian lines.
