Sun and Moon

Sun and Moon

Just like the sun and moon, everything has an internal source of energy. In our bodies, the sun and moon occupy opposing halves similar to the concept of yin and yang. The moon represents the left energy channel (ida nadi) and the sun represents the right energy channel (pingala nadi). Our goal is to achieve and maintain BALANCE between both.

"As above, so below. As without, so within."

Meridian Yoga II

Meridian yoga works to activate and balance the different energy systems, both of mind and body.  There are 14 different meridians, or energy pathways.  Originating in Chinese medicine, stimulating the meridians yields physical health and mobility, peace and joy of the mind, and a connectedness to the creative infinite.  It is scientifically proven to be the safest and most effective way to elongate the muscles and increase a range of motion.  It includes PNF/Resistance stretching, Shiatsu techniques (acupuncture meridians using finger pressure, not needles), increasing circulation of chi energy, and breathing exercises to activate prana.
