“Backbending” is a way to explore how we do or do not lean back into that which we trust and to inquire into why we expand, and where we come from when we do…
What do you trust?
Do you know that you are loved, carried and held in an ocean of love?
Can you lean back into this ocean of love?
Do you know the radiant ocean of consciousness within you?
Is there fear and if so, do you hold yourself and others compassionately?
Can you allow you heart to rest AND stay open on all sides. Not just open in the front - but open in the back, sides, top and bottom?
And from where inside of you do you expand out from?
Is your expansion and going out into the world from a place of inner comfort, inner rightness, truth and fullness? Or is it from a place of insecurity or depletion?
The consciousness and inner mechanics of backbending is fascinating to explore.
We will explore this and SO much more in the 2026/27 Yoga Immersion and Teacher Training in collaboration with .noho
