Slow Yoga for Relaxation - 20min Yoga Class

Hi, I’m Cha Wilde, and today we’re practicing at the beautiful Khus Farm Bali eco-resort in Indonesia. This session is all about slowing down, tuning into your breath, and connecting deeply with yourself in the serene surroundings of the jungle. 00:00:18 Introduction and Setting I introduce myself and invite you to immerse in the peaceful sounds of the jungle here at the Yogashala. The constant hum around us is like the ocean waves, a reminder of nature’s steady rhythm. 00:01:48 Butterfly Pose (Baddha Konasana) We start with the Butterfly pose, also known as Baddha Konasana. I encourage you to move gently, like the beautiful black butterflies fluttering around us in the jungle, and to feel the stretch as you twist and press into your knees. 00:03:34 Slowing Down and Feeling Slowing down is essential. The slower we move, the more we can feel and heal. It’s okay if slowing down brings up uncomfortable feelings. Embrace them, knowing that you don’t have to rush or change everything at once. 00:07:26 Straddle Pose and Breath Work As we move into the Straddle pose, I guide you to focus on your breath. Drag out the inhale, slow down your breathing, and connect with any part of you that resists this pace. Remember, all parts of you are welcome here. 00:10:43 Happy Baby Pose (Ananda Balasana) We then move into Happy Baby pose. Yoga is about finding comfort in these poses, and through practice and patience, we can discover ease and joy in the journey. 00:14:03 Transitions and Fluidity As we transition between poses, it’s natural to stir up thoughts and emotions, just like sediment in a pond. Aim for a smooth, fluid flow, maintaining clarity and stillness as you move. 00:18:28 Closing and Gratitude We finish with Shavasana, followed by Sukhasana. I express my gratitude for your practice today, for spending time with yourself, and for allowing this experience of slowing down to bring healing and connection into your life. ------------------------ ✨ Welcome to Cha Wilde’s YouTube channel dedicated to healing.
