Endless Possibilities (Mini Interview with Genna Howard)
Hey Everyone,
I would like to Introduce you to Genna Howard, I met Genna while on vacation in Hawaii this past winter. Because of Her passion for living a healthy active life we connected right away. She leads Yoga and Pilates classes and lives a very active lifestyle. Genna, What Yoga poses would you recommend to help relieve stress? and what would you tell someone in one of your class to help them connect to the movements?
Mahalo Nui Loa Melissa Helder-Schrotenboer for the opportunity to Share! When it comes to relieving stress and finding that connectedness in yoga, I believe it begins with the Breath. All poses can be stress relieving if gone into with deep breaths and a calm mind, sending those breaths with intention and awareness into the areas of resistance. With every exhale, feeling the tension leaving your body. After connecting to your breath, it's much easier to connect to mindfully moving your body. Staying present in the moment is about creating a peaceful place within yourself and releasing any expectations of your body. We aren't trying to go anywhere in these poses, were simply being exactly where we are, because there is no such thing as a perfect pose! You can spend a lifetime practicing yoga and only brush the surface of endless possibilities. Be forgiving, Be loving, Be you!
