Welcome to Positive Impact Yoga.
The practice of traditional tantra hatha yoga incorporating asana (bodily shapes), pranayama (breath work) and meditation (quiet time). The tantra method has been developed over 1000s of years.
Moon = calm mind & steady body
Sun = build prana (energy power)
Fire = burn blockages so we can explore higher consciousness.
Moon

TO CALM, GROUND AND STABALISE..
Moon practice is the foundation for all Tantric Hatha practices. It is designed to facilitate steadiness in the body and calmness in the mind, two essential ingredients to further practice and the ultimate goal of living yoga in your daily life.
The asanas comprise of standing, forward
folds and gentle twists, longer holds, and lengthening of the exhalation. The result is a deep impact of the parasympathetic nervous system and a still and calm mind.
Pranayamas (breathing techniques) are designed to balance the hemispheres of the brain and evoke still thoughts and the guided meditations build on the practice.
Moon practices are the perfect antidote for todays busy lifestyles. Practiced at any time of the day they are suitable and essential for everyone.
SUN

TO ENLIVEN AND SENSITISE...
Sun practice is more dynamic than moon, it helps cultivate the power and force we need to excel while still keeping us sensitive to more subtle forces of nature.
Building prana in the heart space is key to increasing our energy, our capabilities and love in our lives..
Increasing the exhalation, back bending, lateral and moving dynamically are the key ingredients in the solar practice.
Bandhas and mudras are used more liberally to increase radiance and contain prana within the human and energetic body.
As with all Tantric practice, the moon must be present.
fire

TO ACCESS THE HEART OF YOGA
Fire practice cultivates internal heat focused in the navel. This fire is designed to eliminate restrictions and patterns, from present and past karma to create the space and to call forth the dormant power in the spine - the kundalini.
All asana categories are included in this practice but a more deliberate and deeper work with the Bandhas and Mudras used.
The physical challenge does increase with the inclusion of inversions in fire practice but the main emphasis is building heat in the navel and energy in the spine to ignite the radiant power of the soul.
This practice is suitable if you are feeling physically and mentally balanced and you are ready to embrace transformation.
