- Опубліковано 24 лип 2023
- This is a 60 minute vinyasa flow. Part 5 of the On & Off the Mat Series where we explore how to integrate some of the concepts and principles contained in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. In this class, we touch on the concept of Maitri.. The practice of unconditional friendship. This is a wonderful heart centered class that includes postures to open your chest, back & the musculature around your heart space so you feel spacious, more mobile, breathe better and feel more cheerful.
For practice you may wish to have a blanket for comfort.

Such a great practice Fiona, I struggled with the heat, living in a dog days of summer here!!! Thank you!!!
I think the whole of the northern hemisphere is crazy hot right now. You’re not the only yogi who felt warm on this one :-) thanks again x so appreciate you ❤️🙏
This was a lovely practice, thankyou so much
You’re so welcome Jane! Thanks so much ❤️🙏
I had to stop Yoga for more than 2 years due to knee surgery, but when I came back to your page few days ago, I had the feeling that I never stopped.
Not because of my level that went down but because of your cessions that are always very good, smooth and strong, strong and smooth.
I love you teaching.
Namaste
Welcome back :-) I do hope your knee(s) have recovered well from surgery? I remember you….grateful that you’ve returned. Thank you for your kind feedback 😊🙏
I will confess that sometimes ego joins me on the mat.....today I really concentrated on breath and let movement just be. I wish I could explain the joy and peace I feel right now, after the class . Namaste 🙏
Arhh Silvia… I feel peaceful reading your message. I too, have this ego that joins me on the mat when I’m filming haha. Trying too hard. And then, I remember to soften and not be too concerned. It always feels better. ❤️🙏
Completely amazing. It literally made me feel like I was on drugs/was a true endorphin release. No classes compare to yours.
Super kind. What a great experience for you. Love how you go deep every class x have a wonderful week ❤️🙏
Thank you so much for this beautiful flow. I feel calm, happy and safe to go into my night with ease. Love your creativity and the 60 minutes classes. Abrazos from Chile.
Thank you so much! It’s my absolute pleasure. It’s so awesome we can flow together from opposite sides of the world huh? ❤️🙏
@@TwoBirdsYoga yes incredible, sister 🙂🙏

@behave66 yay! Yes, we are all well n good. Annika os travelling. Mia about to go and meet up with her in India! We are about to be an empty nest. Upsides and downsides I feel… but more travel on the agenda for us I hope :-) Thailand in December 🎉❤️🙏
Good morning again from a great start into the day! With loving kindness, Louise
Hope you had a beautiful day Louise? ❤️🙏
Thank you Fiona. So nice to be practicing with you again, at home in Melbourne, after a marvelous holiday in the extremely hot Sicilian wilds. The second yoga retreat was fantastic. Great practice, people and food, a real joy. We are feeling blessed and hope all is well in your world. Namaste
Welcome home! Goodness, what a wonderful long break you’ve had. Hope you weren’t affected by the fires over there. Their summer seemed to get hotter and hotter. Enjoy this sunny Sunday 😊🙏
Beautiful morning practice!! So much love and gratitude!!
Thank you Barb. Have an awesome day ahead ❤️🙏
This was an absolutely beautiful class - thank you so much, Fiona. There's nothing like a loving-kindness practice to soften the heart, mind, and body. So glad I took the time for this today. Thank you for your yoga ingenuity xx
Thanks so much Emily. So happy you enjoyed it. Loving kindness meditation never fails to inspire a warm heart ❤️🙏
With contentment in my heart, I step off the mat to greet day with peace in mind.
Thank you so much.
Have a loving day.
Eric😊✌❤🙏
Wonderful Eric. A loving kindness tribute always worthwhile. Enjoy the rest of your week 😊🙏
Thanks so much again, Fiona! This „is real“ Yoga, so nicely moderated and professionally set up! Thanks 🙏 a lot
Thank you! Really kind of you to say. I appreciate your message x ❤️🙏
Thank you so much Fiona for this wonderful kind and loving practice and meditation. I am just so grateful that i found you! ❤🙏🙏
So grateful to have you along Janet x thank you ❤️🙏
Can't remember if I did this flow before. Really loved it today. In addition to flushing and nourishing my body with new energy, I feel reconnected with some of the more spiritual and ethical concepts of yoga as a path to a happy, healthy and compassionate life lived consciously and vibrantly alive. With deep gratitude Fiona: Namaste.😍
Beautiful x so lovely to read your message. Thank you ❤️🙏
Thank you once again Fiona. What a lovely way to close my busy day. I'm so so grateful to you 🙏🙏
And I, you, Janet x thank you. Sleep well ❤️🙏
Thank you for this beautiful practice, Fiona. ❤
You're so welcome! Thanks so much ❤️🙏
Thank you so much for this very mindfull class. The world needs love so much that it is even painfull to think about. I hope the community around you (also the virtual one) helps to bring more love and peace for all living beings:).
Indeed! Simply pausing before we speak. Before we react. And infuse our language with love would go a long way toward peace huh? ❤️🙏
Thank you so much for this slow and steady/sweaty flow. I love the hour classes even though getting the hour can be difficult. My wandering mind found that difficult especially at the start.
You’re so welcome Paul. Great to hear you managed a longer class. I’m up at the snow at the moment with my daughters. I brought a book to read. Have not turned a page. children are the most beautiful distraction even when they’re all grown up 😊🙏
What a lovely therapeutic flow. Very nurturing. Thank you for continually inspiring me to get on the mat where you help lead us to acceptance and joy.
Thanks for joining me so often Bethany x I appreciate your company here ❤️🙏
Fiona, as always, thank you so much for this wonderful and lovely sequences. Loved it 😍❤🙏
Fantastic! Thanks so much ❤️🙏
Wonderful strength building and heart and hip opening practice! Thank you for bringing the practice back to the concept of Maitri with the lovely meditation at the end. I must have needed this reminder today because the meditation I did earlier this morning was also focused on compassion.
When we open our hearts, what we need finds us ❤️🙏
@@TwoBirdsYoga ❣
Thank you very much indeed for this lesson, restructuring awareness aligned with the neuronal & skelettal structure, it's so impressive when you teach! Not to forget, the wonderful meditation towards the end! ❤️🙏🏻
