don’t name the body parts I go through,

thereby shortening the ‘energy shower’ phase.

I direct the energy along the same routes that

are used in a standard yoga class: arms, legs,

front, back, neck, face, head… But I just don’t

make stops going through different parts of

the body.

The energy moves in milliseconds. So, this

exercise can be done quite fast, say, two

minutes for the whole body. And, in fact,

scanning through the body without verbal

instructions also helps to keeps the mind

quiet.

The rest of the time I use for meditation. Since

I’m a mum of a 2-year-old, I don’t have a

luxury to do a separate seated meditation.

That’s why I bring my favorite techniques right

into Shavasana.

***********************************************

Whatever techniques you know and love,

would work great after the ‘energy shower.’

You could concentrate on various energy

centers (chest, belly, sacrum, etc.) to further

clean up your system.
