Liminal space

Crossing the Mozart Bridge this week into the Baroque oldtown of Salzburg.

In Restorative yoga we’re interested in liminal space: between awake and asleep.

Liminal is a fancy word we used a lot when I was in architecture graduate school in New York City. Can you picture me talking about “liminal spaces” while wearing all black and drinking cheap Pinot Noir?

All pretension aside, liminal is a great word that points to the in-between, where things are neither here nor there, capturing the richness imbedded In transition and ambiguity.

When you practice Savasana, for example, you intentionally spend time in a liminal state of consciousness. This is the source of a tremendous wellspring of insight, creativity, and healing.

Today I’m offering a Slooow Flow + Restorative class to download. We’ll move and breathe and then rest in liminal space together. For $20 it’s yours to keep.

Talk soon,
Lizzie
