You are always worthy of all glory, honor, and powerand so no matter what I face, I will choose to worship You. . In Jesus’ name, Amen. See more

The Mind-Body Connection . . Yin Yoga for Feeling Safe & Grounded this Monday @shineyogastockton .... . Join me on Zoom for this VIRTUAL YIN YOGA/NIDRA CLASS at time of class or view recording over next 48 hours . . Monday 3:30-4:45pm PST (6:30-7:45pm EST) for my east coast friends! . Western medicine completely ignores the mental component in its treatment of disease. Yet scientific studies show that your mind and body are connected. Even the effects of prayer have been studied. . . Join me Monday at 3:30pm through the @shineyogastockton app or on MINDBODY as we begin to explore and connect our minds and bodies in a beautiful root chakra healing Yin yoga practice. . . The root energy is the 1st of the seven main energy centers in the body. Today, we'll focus on healing and balancing this very important center where often feelings of fear and anger develop. These emotions do not serve our bodies and need to be released so that we may know the feeling of being safe and grounded. . . Each Monday, we will move up through the subtle body towards the 7th energetic center and then begin again with a full body balancing class the following week. . . This is an ongoing class designed for clearing energy fields and bringing a healthy energetic balance to the body. . Props to have on hand, pillow or yoga bolster, two yoga blocks, yoga mat, eye pillow or washcloth and essential oil. . . Open to all levels. **Sign-up online @ MINDBODY** . . #yinchic #yinyogateacher #yinyoga #shineyogastockton #virtualyinyoga #zoomyinyoga
