Auspicious Asana:
Auspicious Asana is a yoga class, a daily practice, a conversation
& an invitation. Take the seat of auspiciousness in your yoga practice
& in your life. Open your heart expansively. Celebrate self discovery,
challenge, growth, affirmation, joy & creativity. Breathe & move with
elegance. Notice & follow your desire. Trust in the radically transformative
quality of your heart. Live from inside out. Enjoy your breath; enjoy your
body. Remember the ever present invitation to fully savor your embodiment
and the exquisite dance of consciousness and bliss.
