Alignment Step 1

Bandhalign® is based off of wisdom which is described in the ancient Hatha Yoga texts. It uses this knowledge and combines it with modern know-how to develop a technique to establish and maintain optimal alignment. The idea is to find balance in every aspect of your being- physically, emotionally and mentally. It doesn't matter where you begin in these steps 1 through 5, because each step draws these three aspect of your being closer together so that you can find balance.

eLearning: Alignment

In your own practice: Remember that you are a living being

Recall the vibrancy and liveliness of your being. Perhaps imagine being a king or queen, having just fallen in love, or imagine being really at home within yourself.

Effect

This step is inseparable from all the other steps. It is the basis with which we can practice and support our students. This exists within each of us naturally, we just have to bring it into our awareness.

Adjustment Perspective: Recognize the divine in your student

Before you step any closer, look for and be mindful that this person is divine and see what is already beautiful and good in this person as you watch them. Your help at this stage is to observe and admire the students individual agency. In this way you can set yourself up to help, NOT to correct.

Effect

This perspective allows for the student's personal growth.
