What do you mean we are going to do 108 Sun Salutations?!?! That sounds crazy and like my arms might fall off! :)

I'll get back to the 108 sun salutations (a yoga mala) in a bit. But first I have to tell you that I've recently fallen in love with the idea and act of checking in with goals and intentions, as well as, reflecting on and letting go of what is no longer serving me quarterly during the year. The sun and seasons help set perfectly wonderful times to do that with solstices and equinoxes. The summer solstice is coming up, Monday, June 20th!
That's the "longest day of the year" for us in the Denver/Lakewood, CO area. A.K.A- the day and night are equal. We are about halfway through 2016 and what better time to check in:
-To let go of some things that are no longer serving you, including but not limited to fears.
-To become present to what is currently good about you and your life.
-To set some intentions for moving forward into the second half of the year.

So back to the 108 sun salutations (a yoga mala). Why 108?!?! Well let me tell you...I don't know exactly. Every person I ask has a different reason and a quick internet search brings even more reasons. My favorite is that it is said that there are 108 energy lines connecting to your heart. Also, it's a nice even number divisible by 27 four times. Which is how will break them up in the Summer Solstice Workshop at CCYOGA in Lakewood, CO on Monday, June 20th from 7-9pm. Register Here!
If you are not feeling up for 108 sun salutations but are still interested in participating in the workshop, there are absolutely some great alternatives to the chaturangas (high to low plank/yogi push ups) that we will offer up at the workshop.
One last thing, if you are into make mala necklaces (Which have 108 beads on them for meditation or decorative purposes.). I will have some mala making kits available for you to bless each bead as we move through the sun salutations. You can then turn the beads into a necklace to remind you of what you're letting go of and what you are inviting in for the rest of the year! I sure hope to see you there!
