Week 2
Welcome to the second week of RESPIRA+.
This week, we deepen our awareness through gentle twisting postures that help release tension and support healthy circulation. We'll also explore how to carry mindfulness into everyday moments—not just on the mat, but in the ways we move, breathe, and respond throughout the day.
Yoga Postures
This week, we will review this series of twisting and heart-opening postures in class to support at-home practice and deepen your connection between breath, movement, and daily awareness.
These postures help release tension, improve spinal mobility, and invite reflection—on and off the mat.
Esta semana repasaremos esta serie de posturas con giros y aperturas del corazón en clase para que puedas practicarlas también en casa.
Ayudan a liberar tensiones, mejorar la movilidad de la columna e integrar la conciencia en tu vida diaria, no solo durante la práctica.

Mindfulness Meditations
Throughout RESPIRA+, we use short, accessible mindfulness practices to help you slow down, reconnect with your body, and strengthen emotional awareness—in class and throughout your daily life.
In class, you’ll be guided through grounding meditations like the 5-4-3-2-1 Method, Seated Body Scan, and Gratitude Letter to support reflection, emotional balance, and stress relief.
At home, you’ll explore mindfulness challenges like Bringing Awareness to Daily Activities and Mindful Messaging & Posting to help you stay present, act with intention, and build healthier habits—online and offline.
