A Tour of the Organs: Heart

Length: 90 mins

Teacher: Toni Cupal

Our "Tour of the Organs" series continues with a focus on the Heart. The heart is obviously a very central organ. Emotionally, we protect our hearts and the layers of protection get thicker after we are hurt by different experiences in life. Part of our healing is to get in touch with our inner strength so we can slowly let go of the layers of protection and let energy move freely through our hearts.

Please have all your props at hand: a Coregeous ball, set of Tune Up balls, an Alpha ball, a strap or small towel, a couple blocks or books and a blanket. Tennis balls make decent substitutes for the Tune Up balls and a rolled up towel can be used in place of a Coregeous ball if needed.

Today’s chant:

Sarve bhavantu sukhinah

Sarve santu niramayah

Sarve bhadrani pashyantu

Ma kashchid duhkha-bhag bhavet

- Vedic prayer

May all be happy

May all be free from sickness

May all look to the good of others

May none suffer from sorrow
