13min Yoga Class for Beginners, Stretching Back and Finding Parts in Our Body

I'm Cha Wilde. In this yoga session, we'll be focusing on Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. Throughout the session, I'll guide you through various poses, encouraging you to observe your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations. We'll start with a child's pose, then transition into sphinx and crocodile poses. As we move through the practice, I'll prompt you to acknowledge and appreciate different 'parts' or aspects of yourself that emerge, such as the part focused on planning and business or the part concerned with fitness and physical well-being. We'll conclude with a brief meditation, expressing gratitude for the parts that joined us during our practice. ♥ JOIN MY ONLINE STUDIO for additional content: chawilde.com/studio-membership --------------- PLAY BY PLAY: Introduction: Today's yoga session will delve into Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. We'll be focusing less on physical alignment cues and more on observing the thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations that arise during our practice. The aim is to recognize and appreciate the different 'parts' or aspects of ourselves that emerge as we move through the poses. 00:00:45 -- Child's pose and observing internal experiences Let's start in child's pose. Take a moment to notice any feelings, thoughts, sensations, or urges that come up for you. I'll share my own experiences too, like the part of me focused on planning and business, and another part concerned with physical fitness and well-being. Feel free to acknowledge and appreciate these parts through your breath and gentle self-massage. 00:05:45 -- Sphinx pose and opening up Now, let's transition into sphinx pose. Notice any new feelings, thoughts, or sensations that arise here. I'll express a sense of release and appreciation for the parts that showed up in the previous pose. We'll then move through some gentle movements to release any tension in the body. 00:08:39 -- Crocodile pose and expressing gratitude In crocodile pose, we'll engage in a brief meditation. I'll encourage you to express gratitude and appreciation for the parts of yourself that communicated during our practice. Remember, it's important to connect with these internal parts in a gentle and mindful way. 00:10:55. -- Closing remarks and unexpected encounter As we wrap up, I want to share a personal note. I had this urge to jump in the pool after our session, and then, unexpectedly, I encountered a millipede on the bed. It's a gentle reminder to slow down and be mindful of our surroundings. Let's carry this sense of awareness with us as we move forward. --------------- #ChaWilde #yoga #yogaclass #yogateacher #yogagirls #internalfamilysystems #ifs #yogaclasses #yogapractice #yogalife #yogalifestyle #yogalifecoach #yogaforbeginners #yogaforeveryone #yogafitness #yogateacher #yogagirl #yogaforhealing #healing #healingjourney #healingmeditations
