I invite you to draw your attention to your eyes. Draw your attention to what you see, to where you look. Above all else, I invite you to notice how you see things. This attention to what we see and how we see it is an ancient yogic practice called "Drishti." Use this practice to turn your mind from distraction to direction.
There is a ton of excitement around bending forwards to touch your toes and stretch your hamstrings. Many times throughout the week, I hear people talk about why they don’t do yoga. One common response is, “I can’t touch my toes.” Stretching your hamstrings has incredible benefits for your mobility, hips, and back health and I recommend to practice them often. At the same time, forward bending isn’t what it’s all about. What about bending backwards?
This playlist is heavy with yoga musician staples like DJ Drez, Janet Stone, and MC Yogi. We love the music they create and the words they use (or lack there of) to create an ambiance of going inward during yoga classes. Almost all of the music has been released in 2021 and 2022 — some of it may be new to your ears including an album we’re really enjoying called, “Bolo.”
