Daily Dose of Yoga

How can a yoga practice help us digest both our food and our experiences more completely?

You’ll explore digestion thematically and posturally in this sequence, which you’ll mostly do on your back and belly. Class begins with gentle movement in apanasana (knees to chest pose) before moving into reclined twist variations, light ab work, and side-body stretches. After that, you’ll hold a knees-down plank, practice a seated version of mayurasana (peacock pose) that facilitates digestion, do an uddiyana bandha (abdominal lock) pranayama, practice dancer pose, and more.
