1. Create the right ambiance/attitude
2. Listen to your breathing
3. Movement and breath
4. The posture is the foundation
5. Stabilizing action
6. Clarification of the 6 directions
7. Pay attention to the feeling in the hands, feet, face
8. Practice at the same time and spot
9. It's okay if you understand
10. Do savasana for a long time. 1 hour practice::5 minutes savasana
Actually, he said 5 minutes per 30 minute practice.
Thank you for transcribing.
@@susanbookman1631 Yes, that is the correct time for a good savasana.
point 9 is: we tend to get complacent once we understand and get comfortable. So we should not hesitate to push little up to the areas where we don't understand as well. U've got 70% out of 100%. Now fight for more from 30% that you are yet to learn. I think that's how we improve and not be stagnant once we are stable.
Thank you so much for summing up this.
love how they're ribbing each other a little bit. lets you know that they are good natured and that they have a strong connection, which is one of the biggest benefits of yoga in my opinion- it gives you the ability to connect with people more deeply when you are at peace yourself! This is something I look for in a teacher and lets me know I can trust their advice
It's extremely rare to have a long savasana offered in a public class if ever! Teachers really need to reconsider this and understand the importance of calming the nervous system. The more teachers incorporate this in public classes the more it becomes a consistent offering in more and more classes.
My teacher does it it for like 2-3 minutes every time at the end of class.
@@BAndersonDavid even then, people manage to roll of their mats and leave. I hate it! It's the important part of the class!
Totally. I feel like it's mostly when the6 have another class righr after. Gotta make that buck I suppose.
@@BAndersonDavid I take 75 min ashtanga classes. I don't think 2-3 mins suffices. I would say 6-8... takes me at least a min to get into savasannah comfortably.
My Hatha Yoga Teacher almost always felt asleep😅, so everybody was really relaxed!
Purple Valley is top-notch content, I have got so many gems from only seven or eight videos. It is often rich in technicality taught by people who truly know the body which is very reassuring. There is so much great Yoga content online that enriches so many lives. I am very grateful for your teaching and insights in these unusual and uncertain times. I hope you are all well at Purple Valley. Thanks so much. Namaste:)
Beginner here. Great tips, you can feel there's some deep understanding being shared. thank you.I usually fall asleep for a few minutes during Shavasana and come away very refreshed. Sometimes I worry this is wrong but it feels so right.
While I have practiced Hatha yoga for 28 years, I am beginning an Ashtanga study and practice at home tomorrow. I was inspired by this Purple Valley channel. I just watched this video and am overjoyed that I began here. I look forward to the many lessons and videos to come! Thank you for the wonderful guidance and valuable points to consider🥰
Thank you to both Joey and Stu. Very useful.
Yes! Love the tip on pushing yourself to understand hard things... thank you for the video.
This video helped me make a connection! For the last 3 weeks, I have been rushing out of Mysore and not doing shavasana for very long at all. For the last 3 weeks, I have been very frazzled and my practice seems to have come to a standstill. I was about to seek the help of an energy worker to figure out what is "wrong" with me. Thanks for the tips. I will write them down and integrate them into my practice.
This is so helpful and should be mandatory viewing for beginners as it explains some fundamentals we often get wrong in the beginning of practice. Love.
Most beneficial yoga video ever! Thanks Purple Valley ❤
I'm so glad you mentioned savasana! It is something so neglected in yoga classes nowadays, especially in the west, but even in places like Thailand I've seen, where students hardly stay for more than a couple of minutes in final relaxation. I was taught from the very beginning to give my students long savasana, many of them guided. Most teachers I come across and talk to do not know how to give/teach savasana or instill it in the class. They feel very uncomfortable with this, and hence just breeze through it, and often give it as an option. Unfortunately, that is depriving the student of the most important and sweet part of the practice.
I love Joey !
Doing shavasana for long time is very useful to relax every cell of the body....thank you
Thank you for the #10. Om Shanti
This is super helpful!! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Stu - great video as always! 👌🏻🔥
Very instructive ! Thanks !
These are so wonderful. Thank you.
Thank you very much for sharing your tips, they encourage me a lot.
Thank You...very helpful, especially the savasana. I am a yoga teacher and I have been neglecting that part of the practice
that is very informational and helpful! thank you so much
Thank you for this! It's very useful and clear! I'll share it forward. ♥ Can't wait to visit you all in Purple Valley someday :)!!
As always very useful Pranam 🙏
Absolutely aced tips! can’t agree more on all of them especially the last one, i often skip the savasana or give it a very tiny little time then back to studying, then get panic and feeling frustrated as the energy created finds not way out. thank you for sharing
Thanks for your advice!
Thank you for your views on Ashtanga yoga, it was informative.
thanks for the share! much appreciated!
Thanks for sharing 😊🙏
Great advice.
V Helpful ! Thank you
Very useful Tips, Thanks
I love your list of "Tips"! #1and #8 are especially needed for the Home Practitioner. I forget that being on time, in the same place is critical even at home . I also cheat on sukasana and need to increase that. Thank you for all the great tips.
I am glad that the ancient wisdom of INDIA (yoga and meditation) is being adapted and appreciated all over the world now..
And so much more than that.
Thanks for tips 😊🙏👍
Love!
thx a lot , that was short and clear
Thank you so much for these tips as I found them to be very helpful especially when you mentioned how everything comes from the midline and to practice shavasana for longer at the end of practices as I find myself speeding through this portion!
Thank you so much for a very informative conversation.This help me a lot on my home practice.
Great work as always, Namaste 🙏
Great tips. I take shivasana seriously, and in a Mysore practice seem to be the slowest, but I don’t think I’ve ever done one for that length relative to practice time. Will have to try.
All great however tip 10 was divine and perhaps the least practiced to that extent for that reason! Love it
Thanks
good
Yoga with British accents is great, especially when then say Yoger
haha so true. a british accent makes the language sing
Yoga is yoga .
Ot can't be yoger and that should not be celebrated👎
If you practice yoga, follow how its said in its ORIGINAL way. So please pronounce it correctly as YOGA no matter whats your accent.
@@sharni888 yohger
@@michellewalsh1150 👍👏👏
@@sharni888 Can you pronounce the words 'Quantum Physics' 'in its ORIGINAL' way?
Thank youu
🙏🏻

Which effect is this in video and which asana you are sitting at starting
guys what do you reckon about doing mediation after not savasana. I do mediation and yoga separately. you are probably going to say i have my priorities wrong haha. but for me to do ashtang then 15 minutes savansa then 20 minutes mediation is quite alot
That's so funny because I do actually always listen to heavy metal on my way to my classes and sometimes during my home practise. Slayer or Morbid Angel usually.
I am a recently retired Oncology Nurse and would love to attend a beginners class
Hi! I do yoga and have started doing Ashtanga. How should I properly prepare my body for the sequences? What can you recommend?
I would say go very easy. Half primary, take breaks of 2/3 days the first year. What helped me to regenerate were cold showers. Good luck!
Dylan Blok thank you! Cold right away? No warm water at all? :)
dariosergevna you could start warm if it's a bit too much, but I go cold all the way. Post-practice showers are the best. Also a lot of top sporters use ice baths after training so I'm not the only one
Dylan Blok thank you for great tips! :)
Generally the sequence itself is preparing your body, surinamaska A prepares for B, and the sun salutes in general prepare for standing poses etc. etc.
So a good perpetration in my experience is to take 5-10 minutes to relax, get connected with the breath so you're present when starting the chant.
Good luck!
forbidden in germany: employing kumbhaka during asana...
O find ashtanga male practitioners have odd shaped legs and arms. Stew is an exception.
1. practice.
2. repeat.
First tip: don't do padmasana, you will tear your meniscus like me 🪷💜🙏🏽
Shows nothing. Just talk
