The summer solstice invites us to celebrate the light. June 21st is the longest day of the year, and at the same time, the summer solstice marks a transition. We celebrate life and abundance. After June 21st, the days become shorter again. We should remember: Where there is light, there is also shadow.
To coincide with the extra hour of daylight, we're giving you an hour of yoga. We invite you to celebrate life in all its fullness and look within.
Yoga Flow with Sarah Gluschke
Yoga has many facets—just like life itself. It can be powerful, gentle, playful, and structured. Sarah has designed a flow that captures exactly that. Like a colorful rainbow, this flow contains a wealth of nuances. You decide where you place your focus. Do you particularly celebrate the gentle opening sequence or the powerful middle section? The most important thing: experiment, have fun, and take what works for you.
Tips for a mindful yoga practice:
Yoga Flow offers a few challenges for our experienced yogis. But even if you're relatively new to yoga, we encourage you to practice flow. Yoga teaches you to play with your limits to the right extent without exceeding them. Whether you're advanced or a beginner, pay close attention to yourself during your yoga class. How much energy did you bring today? It's not always necessary to explore what's physically possible. If you want to challenge yourself, try every asana. If you prefer something a little gentler or are unsure about certain parts, you can always rest in child's pose, sitting, or lying down.
