Ep 176 Adam Keen – Don’t Have Time For An Ashtanga Practice?

Adam discusses the concept of short forms in Ashtanga Yoga. He
explains that while the traditional practice involves doing the
entire series every day, it is not always practical or
beneficial. 


Key Points


Short forms in Ashtanga Yoga can be a sensible approach when
time, energy, or inspiration are limited.


Variation in practice is important to prevent stagnation and
maintain enthusiasm.


Short forms should still incorporate the principles of posture,
counter posture, building, and vinyasa.


Grounding and ending the practice with a focus on the
parasympathetic nervous system is essential.


Practitioners should listen to their bodies and make adjustments
to their practice as needed.
