My LIVE CLASS: Hummingbird Yoga in Linwood NJ
www.Hummingbirdyoganj.com Monday & Wednesday 6:30 Yoga Focus
YOGA FOCUS is about learning the foundations of yoga. Each week we have a different focus that I write on the “Yoga Board” (the large white board that you will see in these videos). The weekly topics build on each other so that you get a real understanding of what the COMPLETE practice of yoga consists of- not just practicing postures (asana).
The yoga practices that we do are gentle, slow flows with a therapeutic focus.
We will also talk about ways to take your yoga practice off of your mat to fully embrace the yoga lifestyle!
Practice Yoga = Change your Life!!

[@leonstenutz6003]

Beautiful. Excellent intro to both yamas & niyamas for a western audience. Thank you from Bolivia.

[@evavillarreal9753]

🙏🏼 thanks!

[@KingaGorski]

A simple breakdown of the Niyamas, exactly - the "Yes's" ;)

[@mariustalos6497]

The 5th one,surendrr means surrender to wisdom,intuition, counciesness

[@LauraGYoga]

thank you Marius

[@kathythompson8403]

Thank you - really helpful!

[@CollinMPLS]

Just tried Dr Goodman's exercises with your suggestion and WOW is that going to help with practice 🙏

[@jessicagomes7618]

You’re amazing! Thank you so much! ✨🙏🏻

[@alicemuhlroth7833]

Iam so glad I found you in youtube! it is great to listen to you, you are really supportive in yogalifestyle.

[@LauraGYoga]

Thanks for watching! I also just started putting my new talks into podcast format so you can listen to them on all the major podcast outlets: Yoga Focus Podcast 😊

[@richarddunne9802]

These are excellent explanations, thank you! I'm a teacher and I'm giving a workshop on the eight limbs tomorrow and this has certainly given me some good and different perspectives or viewpoints. I really like your explanation of bramacharya. Always a tricky one! Btw, the world's population is pushing 7.8 billion at the moment but it won't be long before we're at 9 I'm sure :)

[@LauraGYoga]

I am always happy to hear about teachers sharing information beyond the poses & that is why i made these videos as a resource 😊 hope you have a great workshop!

[@richarddunne9802]

@@LauraGYoga Thank you! And I've seen you have loads of interesting videos, all nicely ordered too! Looking forward to diving in 🙏

[@viviaguilar29]

Thanks for your time! Beautiful video

[@LauraGYoga]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@1dpotengy]

Thank u so much, Im learning very well with u the names of the limbs but the meanings of them were already "occasionally" my own personal practices. xoxo.

[@LauraGYoga]

The yamas and niyamas are common themes you will see repeated in all forms of spiritual practice, but it helps to study them directly to create a strong foundation for the other limbs 💪 thanks for taking the time to watch these videos! 😄

[@gjwagner1856]

My wish is that all the five year olds of today are taught yoga in all its fullness for a better tomorrow for all.

[@LauraGYoga]

That would be wonderful! I wish i had the tools of yoga from a younger age- it would have been so helpful

[@user-xu9wk3zc3y]

thank you! and Namaste

[@LauraGYoga]

Thanks for watching 😀

[@mariustalos6497]

Cleanenes is: purity body,senses, mind,and purity of your ❤️

[@LauraGYoga]

yes, purity on many levels

[@devanshigala]

Spot on ! 👍👍😀😀

[@LauraGYoga]

Thank you Devanshi!

[@FitnessYogawithSarah]

Thank you for the wonderful information! Do you have a video of you doing the posterior chain activation?

[@LauraGYoga]

Yes! The 8 limbs of yoga Niyamas #2, and 2 wall techniques: the reverse elbow plank and the back kick sequence- hope those are helpful! A really interesting method for posterior chain strength is Foundation Training

[@pvspeaks]

Thank you for the simple explanations of the niyamas. Do you have a video with the sequence based on yoga foundation you mentioned?

[@LauraGYoga]

Thanks Puja! yes, if you scroll back through my Videos you will find practices based on each of the 8 limbs of yoga as well as the Yamas & Niyamas

[@mariustalos6497]

I knew this since 6 the grade .and practiced. But later one I deviated from my path and now I m struggling to get back to this life style

[@LauraGYoga]

it is very much a challenge in the modern world- but I am thankful that these teachings were passed down to us so that we can try :)

[@aliciavalentyn5889]

Tapas 🔥🙏

[@LauraGYoga]

Tapas is such a great teaching within yoga- the fire for transformation :)

[@mariustalos6497]

Taps means austerity

[@LauraGYoga]

Yes this is a common translation, "sternness or severity of manner or attitude. extreme plainness and simplicity of style or appearance"

[@alexmcnamee983]

What is OTR and CLT in your title?

[@LauraGYoga]

OTR is Occupational Therapist Registered (my main professional license) and CLT is Certified Lymphedema Therapist (my specialty) :) AKA I really like to learn

[@shatrudhnashatrudhna9649]

i am thining about you whole day

[@mariustalos6497]

Scadyaya: indolence and stop studying and practicing!!! Can't be lazy in ur practice,ur study,

[@LauraGYoga]

there is a saying that yoga is for everyone, except the lazy ;)
