Elements: Fire

Class recorded May 21, 2024

Fire, the element of transformation and vitality, ignites the spark of passion and creativity within us. Like the flame of a candle flickering in the darkness, fire represents the power of illumination and inspiration, urging us to embrace our inner radiance and shine brightly in the world.

In our bodies, fire is associated with our digestive and circulatory systems, fueling the metabolic processes that sustain life. When the element of fire is in balance within us, we experience a sense of vitality and creativity, fueling our passions and driving us towards our dharma with purpose and determination.

However, when the element of fire is out of balance, it can manifest as anger, aggression, or burnout.

By cultivating practices that nourish and balance the fire within us – such as sun salutation, warrior poses, side bends and twists as well as cooling breaths – we can harness its transformative energy and channel it in constructive ways to move and take action confidently.
