Titthibasana (firefly pose) practice ✨⁣ ⁣ Despite the crazy quarantine times of chaos, upheaval and pandemic some beautiful things were also born. One of my silver linings out this past year was a chance to practice twice a week with my fave teacher, the cream of the crop, and contemporary yoga master @carrieowerko❣️ ⁣ ⁣ 🎉 She launched her online platform The Playground just in time for when the shelter-in-place life began. I loved every class and how much inspiration I get it from her every week. If not for just the super fun and playful, highly intelligent, and very challenging practices but also to soak up any level of her positive attitude on life. A great way to also connect with an online community and we all so appreciated the Q&A discussions after each class. Love how the Playground library keeps growing with rich and exciting practice content. ⁣ ⁣ 🎊 Looking forward to continuing to explore and expand with Carrie’s joy of movement into 2021! ⁣ ⁣ 🤸If you haven’t already joined The Playground I highly recommend it as something for your New Year’s resolution⁣ www.CarrieOwerko.com⁣ ⁣ ✨ Looking forward to better and brighter days ahead. Wishing everyone a safe and happy new year! ⁣ ⁣ 🎧 Music track by @sweatsonklank “What A Night”⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #titthibasana #fireflypose #carrieowerkoinspired #carrieowerkoyoga #permissiontoplay #yogawithprops #playfulyogapractice #armbalance #armbalancepractice #armbalancing #yogizain #sweatsonklank #goodbye2020 #happynewyear2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CJZxZ_FMD1C/?igshid=9lga69m1qdfa

“There is an old Sanskrit word, LÎLA, which means PLAY. Richer than our word, it means divine play, the play of creation, destruction, and re-creation, the folding and unfolding of the cosmos. LÎLA, free and deep, is both the delight and enjoyment of this moment, and the play of God. It also means love.⁣ ⁣ LÎLA maybe the simplest thing there is— spontaneous, childish, disarming. But as we grow and experience the complexities of life, it may also be the most difficult and hard-won achievement imaginable, and it’s coming to fruition as a kind of homecoming to our true selves.” -Stephen Nachmanovitch, Free Play ⁣ ⁣ Join me Friday, July 24 at 4PM Central Time (Chicago) for a fun and playful practice. A 90 minute mixed levels class. Link in my bio for Zoom link and payment info. If you are experiencing financial hardship during this time, let me know. No one turned away for lack of funds. Hope to see you! 🙏🏾⁣ ⁣ 🎧 Music by @atropolis “Tudo Bem”⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #freeplay #stephennachmanovitch #carrieowerko #carrieowerkoinspired #permissiontoplay #stabilityandmobility #stabilityandstrength #yogizain #onlineyogaclass #zoomyoga #yogaonline #yogaathome #yogaduringquarantine #practiceyoga #practiceplay #tudobem⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ https://www.instagram.com/p/CDAp46FJSsp/?igshid=18yntabibbg5r
