Part 2/6:
Starting with a grounding exercise, participants rub their hands together, center them at the sternum, and prepare to engage in deep breathing. The session begins with the chant of “Om namo Guru dev namo,” setting a meditative tone to invite focus and intention.
Participants are guided to lie on their backs. The practice centers on fluid movements, alternating between a plank position and upward-facing cobra. With each breath, they engage powerful affirmations: inhaling with "Om" and exhaling with "So hum." This rhythmic integration of breath and movement serves to warm up the spine and cultivate a deeper connection to the bodily sensations.
