Yin Yang Yoga for Liver and Gallbladder | YWM 688

Living your Yoga with Dr Melissa West

In this Yin Yang Yoga for your liver and gallbladder we balance the dynamic bursts of yang wood element energy with soothing yin. In this session, we blend the gentle, introspective practice of yin yoga with the fluid movements of hatha flow qigong, all centered around the theme of connecting with your vision/intention/aspiration in a balanced way. In spring, your liver and gallbladder organs are the most dominant organs and so it is a great time to focus on planting your seeds of intention. In our culture we love to focus on outward actions of doing, however in this class, I will encourage you to cultivate more inward qualities of being. In this class, we'll focus on the liver and gallbladder meridians, exploring how emotions like anger, frustration, and irritation can be signs of disconnection from our true vision. The liver loves movement, free flow, and moving towards what we love. Through gentle poses and flowing sequences, we'll invite ease and fluidity into our bodies, embodying the qualities of water - flowing around obstacles with simplicity and harmony. This class brings balance between yin and yang, movement and stillness, action and contemplation. Discover how embodying these qualities can bring greater harmony, joy, and fulfillment into your life. Let's flow, breathe, and yoga together towards balance and wholeness.
