Relax Into Life
Restorative Yoga is the practice of deliberate stillness. Most of our lives are spent in movement. Our days are filled with high-tech conveniences that allow us to get more done, faster. Even during sleep we move about to find a more comfortable position. So in Restorative Yoga the antidote is the act of lying down and being still.
By lying down you quiet the gross movements of the body. This gives you entrance to a rich inner landscape. In the beginning you notice nothing is still. There is the rise and fall of the belly with the breath, the heart beating, the blood moving through the veins, the gurgling sounds from the abdomen. And of course the mind, jumping from thought to thought, from past to future, resisting stillness.
Why Try Meditation?
Why spend time in stillness?, if everything is always moving?. Is relaxation possible?. It is. As the props relieve your muscles and bones of their roles of support and action, your nervous system sends and receives fewer messages and becomes quieter. Layers of tension melt away as you learn to be present to what is happening in the body and mind in each moment.
Restorative poses cultivate the habit of attention. You learn to identify how and where you hold tension and consciously release it. You discover a clear space from which to make life choices. Through restorative poses, you come into harmony with your body’s natural rhythms. Living by these rhythms is the key to good health.
MEDITATION ON KALI
Sit or lie down comfortably for this exercise.
Close your eyes and focus on your breath for a few mins, until you feel calm and centered.
Imagine yourself lying on a beach on a beautiful summer night. You’re completely comfortable, very close to the earth, and the earth is warm. As you look up into the moonless sky, you sense a sacred feminine presence in the darkness, a presence filled with pulsing energy. As she comes closer, you recognize the form and the energy of the
goddess Kali. You may envision her body as luminous blue-black, full-breasted, shining. Or, you may sense her kinesthetically. As she comes closer, you find yourself gazing into her eyes, which are shining with love. You sense within her an absolute love and an invitation to freedom.
As you tune into the cosmic energy of Kali, let yourself recognize that this sacred feminine presence sees you completely. She sees your beauty, your woundedness, your doubts, your fears, your karmic blocks, the ways you’ve hurt others. She sees your mistakes, your longings, and your innate goodness.
She sees everything that’s apparent and everything hidden……………. She sees you; she adores you; she holds you. She is fierce wisdom incarnate, the liberating force of grace. She is freedom itself.
Let your breath connect you to her glowing sacred heart, to her pulsing, utterly free energetic core, which is also your own heart.
With each inhalation, you draw in the liberating grace of her presence, letting it flow through your body, your being. And with each exhalation, you allow the sense of whatever within you needs to be released, to be let go, in order that she can dissolve it.
Your inhalation and your exhalation are almost like a prayer, “I accept freedom. I allow whatever can be released in this moment to be released.”
