One of the great pleasures of yoga is the relaxation session or shavasana traditionally offered at the end of a class. When taught skillfully, shavasana invokes the flow of energetic "nectar" down the spine to permeate the entire body with blissful energy. Now, with Drops of Nectar yoga practitioners can experience this rejuvenating dimension of yoga at home and at their convenience. Taught by acclaimed instructor Shiva Rea, this immersive two-session program guides listeners through:
- Yoga Nidra, a relaxation method that works with 36 areas of the body
- Tension release through the five koshas (layers) of the body
- A special meditation for healing areas of pain and blockage
- Lunar Shavasana -- an effective means to rest the sense organs and induce deep and restful sleep
- "Awakening the Lotus" chakra-based meditation, and more as a complement to one's existing yoga practice -- or used on its own -- Drops of Nectar will serve as a valuable resource for anyone seeking to explore the healing traditions of yoga.
Full of interesting and beautiful visualizations and concentration techniques as well as offering some simple and heart opening posture flows this will add new dimensions to your teaching or your personal practice.
Highlights include a detailed chakra concentration exercise and a simple chakra breathing technique, a rapid and comprehensive yoga nidra (guided relaxation) that explores the outer body before taking you deep within, a self guided deep tissue massage and tension release exercise that is intense and unusual, and a gentle focus on the moon in various places throughout the program. Any one of these teachings would be worth the price of the set but here they are all immediately available to you. Plus, throughout the CDs the beautiful music of Ben Leinbach enhances and encourages our inward journey. Like great teachers before her, Shiva Rea gives more than she needs to and we can all benefit.
