Morning Ritual: Go With the Flow and Glow

The second sheath in the yogic map of a human being is the “pranic body” or energetic body. This aspect of us is affected by everything that we take in or put out. When our energetic system is out of balance we might feel depleted, or we might feel overly activated. This practice consists of 15 minutes of guided breath work, visualization, fluid, gentle movement and mudra with the intention to get the energetic body harmonized and glowing while encouraging the mind to be present with life, one flowing breath at a time.
