Derek Yoga

Beautiful people,

Yoga has changed my life and I am a strong believer it can do the same for you. Through weekly yoga classes, I will guide you on a journey of self-transformation.

"Move out of the mind, Flow into your breath"

Move = Through yoga asana practice we move the body

the Mind = A magnificent tool that, most times, separates us from what lies underneath. We attempt to entertain its needs (busy lifestyle, running, stressing) and neglect natural cues in the body.

Flow = Returning to our organic nature and addressing the 'inner world'. Taking a step back from charging the phone and re-charging ourselves.

Your breath = Taking ownership of the transformation and responsibility for Your inner work. Breath unlocks the positive aspects of the mind. The aim is to calm down the monkey mind.

    You begin with saying put the salt on and leave it for 24H, then you just put it down on the floor, put salt on it and then wash it away. It's a glitch in the matrix. You didn't demo what you initially said. So is it 24H with salt, flat on the floor, dry ? or something else?

    Hi there, apologies for any confusion in the Matrix. I wish Neo was here to sort things out :D As for the sequence it's: - Scrub with salt - Let it rest for 24H - Wash with a damp cloth

    Thanks for the video! I assume we could just use a vacuum cleaner first, and then the wet cloth just for cleanup?

    You welcome! I would assume the wet cloth can still aid in the scrubbing process. But I don't see the vacuum as a deal breaker. Give it a try 👍

    Somedays (hopefully not ALL-days) we try to cram 2 working days into 1. In such tight schedules, we neglect our health with bad postures, toxic breathing. *Morning Yoga* is a great way to set a positive foundation for a productive day!
