Welcome everyone and happy summer solstice! I'm so glad to have you joining in on this complete hour long practice which will incorporate lots of breathwork, yoga poses and chanting.
The Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year and the international day of yoga! This day is all about celebration, abundance and gratitude. It's a great time to tap into our inner power and look at what we've accomplished this year while refining where we want to go. This is a celebration of light and a time for nurturing.
We will do three different types of pranayama in this class: nadi bedhana pranayama (single nostril breath), breath of joy and sitali pranayama (cooling breath). We will have a strong dynamic yoga flow with sun salutations and standing poses as well as poses that connect with the manipura solar plexus chakra. We'll finish by chanting gayatri mantra. Here's a translation of this mantra I really love by Douglas Brooks:
oṃ bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ
tatsavitur vareṇyaṃ
bhargo devasya dhīmahi
dhiyo yo naḥ prachodayāt
The eternal, earth, air, heaven
That glory, that resplendence of the sun
May we contemplate the brilliance of that light
May the sun inspire our minds

Don't sell yourself short, Kassandra. You have a lovely voice! I enjoyed the whole practice, especially the chanting. Thank you. Happy anniversary! 🌺

[@jodicrimmel1295]

Oh my goodness, this was SUCH a great practice! All the movements were great, the breathing was very good but by far the chanting was phenomenal! Thank you so much for sharing! Your haircut looks terrific! Happy ANNIVERSARY! HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SUMMER! This was a super practice!

[@jennifermary2350]

Yes I agree you have a beautiful voice Kassandra - more chanting please. First time Iv’e done a whole hour of yoga on my own but really enjoyed the sequence. Happy anniversaries! 🥰May you enjoy many more happy years of marriage and sell lots more books. 🙏😀

[@Ts-lz1gj]

Hey I have question. So I have a home workout app(no weights) and yoga app. And both of them have 30 day challenges. So I want to gain flexibility and muscle building. So I thought it would be a good idea to do the yoga 30 day challenge for a month and then do the 30 day home workout challenge after words. And then rotating both challenges again. One month focusing on yoga and another focused on home workout, and then on and so for. However I’m worried about loosing the results i gained from the yoga challenge while taking a month off focusing on the home workout challenge. Same in reverse. Anyways i wanted to ask for your thoughts on the matter😊

[@bvn951]

I totally agree! I love your voice❤️ I didn’t chant with you but listened with my eyes closed and it brought me to tears. It is very powerful because I don’t understand a word but still it moved me😅

[@yogawithkassandra]

Stepping out of my comfort zone with this one! Chanting is really powerful but not something I usually like to do on camera ;) Enjoy! It's also the 1 year anniversary of the launch of my book Year of Yoga 🎉 www.amazon.com/Year-Yoga-Rituals-Kassandra-Vinyasa/dp/1681888459/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=2N7C0H5PLS4YA&keywords=year+of+yoga&qid=1687349720&sprefix=year+of+yoga%2Caps%2C162&sr=8-1

[@dagmaryrstefansdottir]

Hi Kassandra - a silent participant here, been doing yoga with you for years now and am coming back to this practice again after doing it at the summer solstice. I just want to congratulate you on stepping out of your comfort zone and do the mantra chanting, you have a wonderful voice and you give so much to us that are practicing with you and learning from you. I would love to have more courses with chanting, I don’t know how or why but it does something for me. Very grounding and somehow healing. Thank you for your wonderful classes! ❤

So powerful… I felt extremely enlightened in that very moment… love was everywhere! It was DIVINE 💖💖💖 How truly awesome and overwhelmingly beautiful 🙏💖 Beyond grateful! And Kassandra’s voice was heavenly ✨✨✨

[@letakayama]

[@hollandguthrie2005]

Happy summer Solstice everybody! Your chanting was so beautiful, it really showed your inner light in a beautiful way. Thank you for sharing ☀️

[@rkjain97]

Thanks a ton, Ms. Kassandra, this class was really a great and fantastic experience, especially on the eve of International Yoga Day. Really appreciate your way of taking up, explaining the contents, and chanting the GAYATRI MANTRA. The kind of positivity you generate about all aspects of life throughout your sessions is really unmatchable. May God Bless you always and you continue spreading this divine light through your beautiful Yoga Sessions.

[@rmkyrmky]

I think this might just be my favourite practice of yours, I feel so energised and refreshed and all round in a great mood. Thank you very much for the care put into this. Also, I really enjoy the occasional poses from foundation training that you include in some practices, would love to see more! ☀️💛🧘🏻‍♀️

[@quinceybaugus4598]

[@1960genius]

I love that many of us are revisiting/or joining the ten day program together after it’s been up a few years. This is my third time ❤

[@SarahMNewman]

This was lovely and came at the perfect time for me. Your voice is lovely, Kassandra! I know it's difficult to sing on KZbin and put yourself out there, but it's very soothing and easy to chant with. Thank you so much for this video! Happy Summer Solstice! 💜

[@liorette]

I Woke up really early this morning, saw this video was posted, so I went out to practice in my back yard. It's been a beautiful experience. The warming up, cooling down...joining you in the chanting.. I could feel myself integrating more parts of my journey that have brought me until here. Thank you for bringing forward your gifts. It inspires...happy summer solstice 🌞

[@sylviasmith3941]

Happy summer solstice 2024 . Sad morning for me said good bye to a beloved pet dog . She is at peace now and this yoga session has helped me . Thank you

Bright Blessings to all this Summer Solstice, happy anniversary Kassandra and Hubby, and congratulations on your book which I love so much. Namasté from Spain, thank you for enriching my life 💖

[@amethystamanda]

It took a lot to motivate myself to do a 1 hour class but I loved it! More like this please!

[@sydubage]

I've been attending your online yoga classes for 10 yr plus. Seeing the development of your practice, your teaching, & you--your openness & vulnerability especially, as well as your articulateness, intuitiveness, creativity, artistry & humor--continues to be so important to my own self care. Kassandra, your classes feel to me like an immense privilege. --Syd

[@windleberg]

I wanted to do something special for myself today and I knew you'd have a gift here for us. You never dissapoint! Shurrup about your voice! It's very sweet and devotional. Devoid of ego. That's a perfect chanting voice! Thank you. Happy anniversary and many blessings to you, sweet lady. X

[@papershoes21]

Although a mere 13 days from the 2024 Solstice, the sun was out emitting summer vibes! I stumbled upon this video and it was so nourishing and energising. More videos with chanting, it was a beautiful end to a beautiful practice.

[@yaizka]

This one was Amazing Kassandra, thank you for your light and for sharing these sessions with us. Your chanting is beautiful and powerful, I loved it. Namaste!

[@intendwell]

What a ❤ practice to celebrate the solstice! Thank you 🙏 PS Your voice is beautiful!

[@veronicasunlight]

Today is June 16, still 4 days till Summer Solstice but I today is especailly calm & this practice was so appropriate. I'm so much surprised that you don't like your voice. It's very tender & calming. I was so much pleased to sing with you today. Thank you for everything you do!

[@Trebor-zi7jh]

Excellent - one of my favorite classes! Perfect mix between intense and more relaxing postures. I like that you took time for breathing techniques.

[@amirafitz1325]

This session was beautiful, Kassandra, I really appreciated the breathwork and your chanting was perfect! Thank you!

[@Love.Connects.Us.All.]

Thank you dear Kassandra. I love all of your video's. ❤ your voice is so pure and sweet. Lovely to listen to. Even when you are chanting. I absolutely loved it! Because you did something out of your comfortzone and sharing that info with us, also dragged me out of my comfort zone... I started chanting with you. 😊 I will chant with you always from now on. So thank you also for that! Big hug from the Netherlands to you 🤗

[@yogawithkassandra]

Thank you so much :)

[@ashleypurcell1510]

I decided to this on the first day of summer. I have never done a yoga practice with a chant. This brought me to tears and I have never experienced that before. I really loved this ❤ Happy anniversary

[@jacquelynwalker4880]

Kassandra! Grateful that you share your spirit and practice with us. Your hair is perfect!

[@AK_Honig]

such a wonderful class, kassandra!! I have discovered your channel in 2019 and have been doing your classes regularly since then. I just love the way you are teaching and instructing yoga. thank you so much!

[@sarahkline2796]

Loved this session so much! Perfect blend of strength and flexibility, just what I needed today! Thank you so much! 🙏🏼❤️ Also absolutely love your hair and outfit, gorgeous! 🔥

[@kimconstantine6837]

I believe the voice raised in chant in Bakti is always beautiful

[@UteLeuffen]

Thank you dear Kassandra, yes please, do more of these classes, its like a seminar, all inclusive :)

[@Muisje68]

I love love love 💕 this practice! Thank you so much 🙏🏻 The emotional release during the sun salutations was cleansing. I chanted with you but did the version that I know. It was an hour of heavenly bliss ❤ Thanks also for the beautiful words you spoke. Spot on!

[@albiserjani4016]

Better than drugs

[@nadiatapia171]

I cried with the Mantra at the end. I❤ you Kassandra❤. HAPPY Summer solstice

[@danahamstra3989]

Practicing this a few days after summer solstice 2024 and it was exactly what I needed ❤️ joining in with the chanting at the end made me feel both peaceful and energised, loved it!

[@K8Cally215]

I was in tears by the end of this practice, what an offering this is 🙏 thank you for this challenging and restorative practice. the gayatiri was so beautiful you have a lovely voice & I am always down for a good chant! I have been an online student of yours for so long & I know how much of yourself this is to give on KZbin so thank you deeply.

[@teritorres5211]

I went into this practice with the mindset that I would only do half of it. Then Kassandra says 9 sun salutations, I thought, I’ll do 6. Well… I finished the whole thing, and don’t feel like I was dying. Haha. I sold myself short, just like Kassandra did about her chanting. Your voice is beautiful. Thank you! I feel proud. I love your hair too!

[@user-ne8hk7nq4e]

You chanting was great. Who does like the sound of their own voice!😊

[@georgeyearley4368]

Perfect practice to celebrate the solstice...and I don't know if it was intentional, but I appreciated that you choose to wear orange, given this is also designated as the National Day of Indigenous Peoples. It just felt like the right color to celebrate both the sun and the Indigenous peoples of Canada, warming my heart!🧡

[@matcha.always]

why did I cry after chanting 😭 i'd love to see more of these kinds of sequences!!

[@vivienneerilar555]

please absolutely do more videos with chanting! It was amazing: your voice is very sweet and I felt great chanting along with you. Thank you & happy solstice!

This was such a welcome distraction. I’ve just lost my beautiful Saint Bernard and I needed this to focus my mind on something positive. He was still very much apart of the flow but in a positive light instead of focusing on the negative. Thanks as always 🙏❤️
