Back to Nature

 - 
Duration: 
40 mins

Get back in touch with nature with this wonderful class filmed at the top of Mout Pilot in Victoria, Australia with the Smith Family...

Feel enriched, invigorated and aligned with yourself, of all nature, of life, and All That Is.

We start with some great activations including Breath of Arjuna, Figure of 8 and a Spinal Wave. This is followed by EBR3, Awakening the Heart sequence, which includes the Windmill Scoop, Spinal Twists, Ocean Wave, The Archer and The Runner.

Magical moments follow as we share the Salutation to the 4 Directions, starting facing North. This is a powerful sequence to help you find a deep sense of connection and alignment to yourself and the world around you. After a sincere dedication, we are then invited to lie down for a peaceful relaxation, guided by Margot.

To complete this session enjoy the beautiful mantra, "Om Namoh Narayani Om", which translates as: “I offer my respectful obeisance to the Goddess Lakshmi, Narayani, who is the provider and nourishment for all living beings.”

A beautiful class. The sun is shining here and I can hear our native birds as well as the Australian ones singing this morning. The singing/chanting was so calming. Thank you Smith family. xx

Thank you Smith family. It was such a peaceful yet strengthening class. Margot you speak so beautifully: the voice; words and interpretation of the sequences. I really enjoyed that each one of your delightful girls took solo parts. This is definitely one of my favourite morning classes. The landscape is stunning and during the quietness in relaxation the sound of the birds circling enhanced the depth of the experience. Many many thanks to you all xx

Dear Smith Family, thank you for creating and sharing this beautiful back to nature session with us all around the world. It has instilled in me a renewed sense of calmness, appreciation and awareness of nature around me. During the class a blackbird was happily picking all the red berries of a shrub from the garden which must have been just ripe for him to share with his family. Your sharing has bought so much. I loved the peace blessing song at the end too. Love and greetings to you all from the other side of the world.
