One of the great pleasures of yoga is the relaxation session or shavasana traditionally offered at the end of a class. When taught skillfully, shavasana invokes the flow of energetic “nectar” down the spine to permeate the entire body with blissful energy.

Now, with this compilation yoga practitioners can experience this rejuvenating dimension of yoga at home and at their convenience. Taught by acclaimed instructor Shiva Rea, this immersive two-CD program guides listeners through:

• Yoga Nidra, a relaxation method that works with 36 areas of the body

• Tension release through the five koshas (layers) of the body

• A special meditation for healing areas of pain and blockage

• Lunar Shavasana – an effective means to rest the sense organs and induce deep and restful sleep

• “Awakening the Lotus” chakra-based meditation, and more As a complement to one’s existing yoga practice – or used on its own – this masterpiece of Shiva Rea's will serve as valuable resource for anyone seeking to explore the healing traditions of yoga.
Relaxation and healing have never been such a joy. Her skills at conveying the essence of yoga in her inimitable style, reflect the depth of her experience.

The journey of all yogas, in every tradition, leads us to a single destination: an open and loving heart connected to the Source. On Yoga Chant, instructor Shiva Rea – with acclaimed world music artist Jai Uttal and musician Ben Leinbach – guides you into a transformative “inner yoga” practice of the heart where you will experience:
• Chant (kirtan) – India’s ecstatic sacred sound tradition for opening ourselves to love and devotion
• Vinyasa Flow Yoga – a flowing sequence of asanas (postures) focused on backbends and hip openers to provide the foundation for embodying an open heart and strong spine
• Meditation and Breathwork (pranayama) – specific meditations and breathing cycles to nourish the heart center with prana (vital life energy)

Use the album's tracks individually or as one continuous sequence to rejuvenate yourself morning or night ... release tension and constrictions ... and connect to the current of unconditional love. For beginners with some yoga experience and intermediate students. Complete with study guide.
