Yoga for your Ayurvedic body type - Vata
A Vata personality is outgoing, friendly and creative. When not in balance they can be stresses, anxious, overwhelmed. They can suffer from conditions such as insomnia, joint pain and brain fog. In this class we are going to reduce your vata and help create a calm, grounded state on mind and body. Be prepared to feel totally nurtured.

Thank you very much for this session. I have enjoyed it. I wonder why is it that we move the feet and the hands in opposite directions in the relaxation moves? For I have learned earlier to do them in the same directions?

I enjoyed this very much. I do have trouble with deep squats due to arthritis in one of my knees, but I compromise where I can. Thank you

Hi Catriona Thanks so much for your message. Yes, the secret really lies in being creative to find ways to alow our bodies to do as much of the sequence as we can safely and with great respect for whatever shape our body is in at the moment. The more we can keep moving the more opportunites we give our body to either maintain or restore so remember that your knees abilities to perform deep squats do not define you. As you have discovered they need not impair your enjoyment of the class.

Hi - hope you have enjoyed watching this class :-) We checked the sound and everything appears to be working fine at our end. Just checking your volume is turned up both on your computer and also on the video itself (bottom right corner). Let us know if you have any more problems. Thanks.
