Shavasana

Sí.

¿Qué hace el shavasana?

Shavasana.

Es parte fundamental de la práctica.

Y si te levantás y te vas en ese momento, rompés la atmósfera.

There's lots of things happening.

And then you would come back to stillness in Shavasana or in mountain pose.

So you're moving, what you're doing effectively is going up and down the gears of the nervous system.

So we don't want a nervous system that gets stuck in one gear.

And the reason it's so delicious and delightful is because you've had 50 minutes of like pushing yourself.

That pushing has kind of been the stress and then the Shavasana is your recovery.

And for me, that's like a micro dose of this is what life almost ought to be like, that we stress and strain and push because it's exciting and we test ourselves, but we have to balance it with recovery.

And so painting for you is one of those recovery activities.

That seems to be a formula that he popularized.

Sukhasana is the first pose and Shavasana is the conclusion.

Again, you know, no idea if he's really the first, but he certainly popularized it.

And we know about it now.

It's a great book and it teaches you to not necessarily have an app, although that's fine too, but actually real life things.

Yeah, well, that's very interesting, Les, because this app that I do use for yoga, it used to, I mean, I used to have the sound in the background and then some New Zealander woman used to say, you know, now Shavasana, do this, and she'd tell me what to do.

But because I'm not doing that exercise anymore, I still use the app for the sounds.

And sometimes if I'm I think I can't use the thunder and lightning one more time.
