Our hands are extensions of the heart expressed daily with friends and family – holding, soothing, caring and cooking – and in our work, if we’re lucky enough to love it, too. Our hearts expand as the arms stretch wide, and hands spread even wider when greeting loved ones, the earth, the sky and all beings.
In yoga, we use hands to understand the ‘wonders of the living body’, as Thich Nhat Hanh exclaims, for self-support, grounding, energy stimulation, release and circulation. Join this session focused on the hands and reclaim a vibrant and sensitive part of the body, sometimes overworked, sometimes neglected, sometimes in discomfort, but always beautiful, strong, clever and curious.
