Weighted Breathing

Sarah B. Yoga + Feldenkrais

Episode 104:
Today’s class is a short breath awareness meditation done in savasana with a weight placed on the belly.

You will need something heavy that you can place on your abdomen. If you have a yoga sandbag, this works great. Most people don’t have that, so I suggest finding one or two very thick books. A thick textbook could work well. If you are using a book, then you will also want to have a blanket or a towel that you can place underneath the book, so that the weight is not hard or pressing into any part of you in an uncomfortable way.
