This 1 hour hatha yoga class is a backbend yoga class on perfectionism and will lead you through yoga asanas to help you do yoga backbends. We will practice yoga twists and yoga side bend postures to help you get into yoga backbends. 

In order to overcome perfectionism and the stress, anxiety and depression that perfectionism brings to our lives, I will tell the story of Visnu’s incarnation as Krishna and his conversation with Arjuna that in taking human form he could only be 15/16th perfect. We will reflect on our imperfect perfection as human beings and bring loving kindness, compassion and perfection to our imperfections. 

This class also includes the hindu mantra, vedic mantra, the guru mantra in hindi. This mantra is found in the Guru Gita: gurur brahma gurur visnu/gurur devo mahesvara/guruh saksat parambrahma/tasmai sri gurave namah. Which translates into english as: The guru is Brahma/The guru is Vishnu/The Guru is Shiva (Devo Mahesvara)/The guru is nearby and the guru is everywhere/To the guru I offer, all that I AM. I hope you enjoy this mantra meditation.
