The Knowing Flow Beginners Connect Sequence Series 1:

This sequence is designed for the beginner who has some or little yoga experience.

This is a dynamic and progressive practice where Ill demonstrate and take you step by step through salutes to the sun to strengthen the upper torso. Ill offer standing postures to ground and earth you by strengthening the muscles of the legs and freeing the hips, balancing postures to integrate and spinal twists and seated postures to strengthen the back rejuvenate the spine and free the hips whilst shifting stagnant energy then finishing with Shavasana.

Beginners Connect cultivates a steady foundation for future growth and deep connectedness with yourself on lots of levels. Its essential to gain the fundamentals of your practice through your focused, even inhalation and exhalation using ujjai breathing linking breath to movement and eye-focus (dristi) cultivating a meditation whilst in motion.

The bandhas (locks) or core muscles are engaged throughout much of the practice directing prana through the energy lines of the body (nadis) as well as giving lightness and internal strength to the poses. Awareness of the bandhas also keeps you in the present.

There are three bandhas: mula - pelvic floor and perineum muscles, uddiyana - abdominal and diaphragm, ribs, and intercostals and the jalandhara in the throat area.
The overall practice realigns the posture, cultivates awareness, strength, flexibility, and develops a calm, focused mind, overall wellbeing and the experience of following a pathway to self-realisation.

You can repeat this video (generally 1-2 times) until youre ready to move onto series 2

The Knowing Flow™ Vinyasa Sequence
Designed intuitively by Jane Ribinskas The Knowing Flow™ yoga style is a dynamic vinyasa (moving breathing linked) flow. The sequence often consists of standing, balancing, seated, twisted reclining and inverted asana postures, finishing the flow with shavasana. The essence of the practice is to shift the energy from the base chakra (energy centre situated at the base of the etheric spine) to the knowing or intuitive space of the awareness beyond mind. Science suggests the knowing space to be the part of the brain where we naturally know what is right as far as decisions and what our true potential is rather than being clouded by the thinking mind that can often be influenced by fear and doubt. When you tap into the space you dont doubt you just breathe and know the love, wisdom, health, happiness, wealth and prosperity that manifests from this space.

The sequence rewires the energy circuits. The body and mind are one and all thought and memory positive or negative is stored on an energetic and molecular level. This flow further develops strength and flexibility, cultivates calmness yet in the right time releases the emotional blocks on a cellular level. Allow the body to be filled with, knowing, freedom, feel the energy rise feel alive. By being linked to the present living fully in the now noticing life as it is you will be liberated from the trappings of the limited mind. . Expand grow be in the now. Cultivate your changed state.
