Yoga for two!

Get bitten by the love bug as yoga expert Sunaina Rekhi teaches you how to connect with your partner over yoga

Couple yoga is a unique healing art—an art that expands the traditional practice of Yoga into the realm of relationship and authentic connection with your partner. Postures and flow sequences are designed to bring communication into a tangible, physical form, and help you witness the dynamics of your relationship.

When you are practising partner yoga, an energetic cord extends from your energy body to your partner. Likewise, when your partner is with you, an energy cord extends from them to you. When you love another person with your heart, you send out an energetic cord from your heart to their heart. This love empowers both of you. It feels, intimate, permissive and nonjudgmental. While you support your partner in his or her asanas, you feel loved and supported by that love.

Love attracts love. Yoga helps you to look at yourself with fresh eyes at any time of your life, and see the real you free from any false ideas you may have adopted about yourself. You can find love in yourself and, when you do so, you can begin to receive love from others.

You connect with your partner while practising the asanas by being gentler with yourself, by being more compassionate with yourself and being kind while assisting your partner.

By doing partner yoga, you will find in yourself that deep love for yourself and your partner. You will start to notice how you are rewarded as you begin these new loving habits. Not only will you feel better about yourself and your life, but your partner will begin to behave differently to you as well.
