This 50 min yoga class combines hatha yoga and kundalini yoga sequences to connect you with the fearlessness of Kaal Ratri Durga for the sixth class in our Durga series. Kaal is dedicated to the time and death of ratri which means night and so Kaal Ratri is the one who destroys ignorance and removes darkness. She is believed to endow her devotees with both calm and courage. Kaal Ratri is known to remove the darkness of worry from the lives of her devotees and make them fearless. She blesses her followers to overcome all the difficulties of life. 
 
We will begin our yoga class with a Kundalini Kriya to Energize and Kundalini Stretch Pose, Nose to Knees pose, and the Ego Eradicator. From there we will shift into some hatha yoga poses from keyhole stretch, happy baby pose, dead bug pose, and lunge pose. When we come to standing we will practice Breath of Joy and Natarajasan followed by Goddess Victory Squat with a Mudra for Recharging. Our inversion today is Wide legged standing forward fold and then we will come down for a Reclined Twist and close out with the Mudra for Recharging along with the Arati Jyoti Chant.
