Episode 27: Who's In Charge 'Round Here?

In today's Monday Musing I'm talking about who's in charge round here ... and by 'round here' I'm referring to YOUR body and YOUR movement choices. There has been a discussion in some yoga teacher forums about what is and isn't 'safe' to teach virtually and whether students should have their cameras on during virtual classes ... and I have some thoughts about this I'd like to share.First, we dive into what 'safety' actually means and why we can't deem a particular position, pose or movement as safe or unsafe for every body. We HAVE to understand the role of the nervous system when we talk about 'safety'.Then we dip into this question of who is in charge. Are teachers giving instructions or offering invitations? Where does responsibility lie?Listen in then share your thoughts with me!Grab your 25 minute 'Upper Body Reset' class at https://www.ericawebbyoga.com.au/upperbodyresetAnd get on the wait list for The Mindful Movement Virtual Studio: https://www.ericawebbyoga.com.au/virtualstudioFind me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ericawebbyogaAnd on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ericawebbyogaThe content I share on this platform is for informational and educational purposes only and is not intended to be a substitute for professional advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
