July
Breeze
YOGA FOR THE CHEST
from Saturday 4.7. – 31.7.2026.
A light breeze through the chest and heart opens the energy of love. Love is good will, acceptance of all conditions and relationships, but primarily love is presence. By awakening our heart, we become more sensitive and open, but also more honest. This month we are dealing with opening the shoulder girdle and improving the capacity of the breath. We soften the chest, shoulders and trunk and breathe “through the heart”. The lungs embrace our heart, and the rhythm of breathing directly affects the rhythm of the heart and the entire nervous system. When we release breathing, the heart moves in a wider, more comfortable space and has more capacity for patience and understanding of all the conditions we are present with. We dedicate this month to breath and heart coherence, shoulder mobility and sleeping posture.
Mindful journaling: Return to your heart energy. What is it like to act only from the pure, sincere driving energy of the heart? Write down when you can return to the heart and breathe through it, when the heart can be a guide.
