The Secret of Flight

Last night, my wonderful student Shelley had a Crow Pose Breakthrough in my class at the beautiful Exhale Mind Body Spa.

People usually think the secret to arm balances is greater upper body strength or more core.
But it’s not about “muscling through.” Instead, it’s usually two things:
Leaning your heart forward a little more than is comfortable
Keeping your heart lifted at the same time.
The same applies to everything worthwhile in life. You’ve gotta stick your neck out a little more than feels safe and at the same time stay lifted so you don’t collapse and fall flat on your face.
Have fun taking flight!
P.S.  If you want to lean your heart forward and lift yourself at the same time, check out my great friend Susan Kennedy (aka SARK)’s brilliant course with Dr. Scott Mills.  (I’m a guest star in September).  Those details HERE.
