It consists of two parts: The first part starts with a series of affirmations. These are about self-love, health, abundance and prosperity.

For the first few months I thought it'd be over soon, and I'd be back in Australia by September at the latest. Well 😂 I've come to terms with it in the meantime, it is what it is, and am working on new content again.

Recently I figured out how to stay in Savasana longer, with more calmness than ever: Counting the breath The key is to first time how long one breath cycle takes, the total of one inhale and one exhale. Once you know how many breaths you take in one minute, you simply count your breaths...

Yin Yoga is a perfect complement to the dynamic and muscular (yang) styles of yoga that emphasize on internal heat, and have the stretching and tightening of our muscles in focus.
