Freeing and stimulating gall bladder and liver meridian

Thank you so much José, this was a really wonderful class! Meditation and breath were amazing. Doing the breath really stimulated the upperbody in a lovely way. Never done shoe lace side bend variation before and it was really challenging for me. I felt a lot of resistance and irritation (never experienced that before in Yin!) so that was new to me and i think a sign that there's a lot of blockage in the liver and gal blather meridian. I felt really really stiff coming out of the poses (both sides) Also something new was the fact that i could do full hero pose without pain in the SI joint! Don't know why that was cause i haven't been able to do the pose ever before without extreme pain in that area. Maybe practicing yin variation in shoe lace side opened up the SI joint area? Anyway...a lot of resistance during but a lot of release after the practice. I did the practice yesterday as well and my whole face and neck were blushing and warm throughout the day! Now, just after practcing today it feels even more warm and comfortable. I think you're a wonderful teacher and hope to practice in real when you're back at the new yoga school. Enjoy your vacation! Warm regards, Jutri

Love, love, love! Thank you Jose!

Great class, I found it very liberating , thank you Jose

Such a great class! Thank you José.

Intense but/and calming at same time - thanks

Thank you for this great class. The light cycle and "the energy grasping and releasing with the movements fingers ans arms" (didn't get the name) was new to me ans wonderful. Namaste

Wonderful! Thank you very much!

Amazing! Great instruction.

That was such a lovely class. I'm not used to stretching those areas much, and wow, they needed it. I found even square pose difficult, but managed to support both knees with a block and bolster to keep the stretch without hurting, so it's worth it even if you're very tight or a beginner. The twist at the end was new to me, and such a satisfying pose for my body. Thank you.

Tough but ultimately good. Thank you José.

Jose, I came to this class because I could feel my gall bladder playing up and I was getting snappy; I had interestingly been sitting at my computer all day, so my neck was hurting. Wow, what a relief and release I did not realize how much tightness, heaviness was in my gluts and hips It was so wonderful and liberating to hold these poses and I felt like my anger was dissolving away as my stomach gurgled and my neck pain left me. thank you so much for a healing and very special class which I will return to... Your voice is so comforting

Great you all loved it! To Jutri, unfortunately I won't be teaching classes at the NYS coming month due to too bussy schedule. Hope to see you again when I am back :)

Lovely class, thank you Jose. I couldn't believe how quickly the hour flew by, your voice and instructions were so gentle, relaxing, and encouraging. I feel wonderful now, ready to face the rest of the day with more calm and inner peace.

Soshuten (probably spelled wrong) and the breathing exercise at the beginning were new for me. Very nice. And a wonderful class as usual. Thank you.

Thank you, Jose.

Thank you, Jose. Lovely class.

Thank you, Jose. Lovely class.

That was so fabulous. I feel so much better after a long day of sitting. Namaste and thank you so very much.

Thank you as always Jose. I feel so much calmer and more centred after this practice.

that practice was challenging for me in some areas of my body. loved how you explained working on the meridans and an understanding of the internal organs.... thank you so much NAMASTE JOSE!!

Thank you, Jose. A challenging class. And as you said, anger came up. A challenging reminder that breathing and letting go is the pathway towards calming the mind, which, at first, resists so many of the sensations that come up in the various poses...I look forward to repeating this class regularly and watching my journey with it.

thanks so much this was AMAZING!!! I soooo needed this yin yoga class. I was able to 'touch' other places that I've never done before,,,, but then again,, I am very new at this. It was very interesting to feel the right from the left,,, the left area was almost like 'pleasure" .. not in a sexual way,,, but just a very pleasant feeling, the left side was a little 'painful' but eventually 'gave in",, and was just simply there,, namaste

A typical calming, yet kind of vigorous José class ;) As Carol mentioned before in the comments: the hour flew by. And my butt cheeks feel wonderfully loose :) Thank you.

Thank you for this class, felt great

Thank you Jose for this class. For me it was challanging. But in this way I can really feel the work that I need to do on my body and mind. Namaste and thank you.

Hello José! I have a question: How the gall bladder meridian stimulation affects in case the gall bladder is removed surgically? Is there any point to stimulate this meridian then?' Or does this practise have negative effects then? Sincerely grateful, Kristi

Hi Jose what a great class! May I ask you, for the end positions with the knee bent, I felt really big stiffness on my foot, I could barely sit on the bent the leg-This was something new for me and post lockdown as I was really really mobile before. Are there any slight adaptations of the position that could still be beneficial, like sitting on a block to raise the hip? Thanks so much for the lovely class. Ana

Jose, do you think this practice suitable during the first trimester of pregnancy?

Enjoyed the shoulder work also in this class. Thanks

A very different yoga experience, thank you. It's both challenging and releasing to sink and hold poses for so long and definitely felt things shifting in my centre, almost like I wanted to be loud and noisy! Question - in half saddle pose I struggle to lean onto the top of my foot (same if I'm sat on my heels for very long) - the top of my foot quickly gets sore, and I also have a bunion that gets in the way. Should I keep stretching to improve foot flexibility, or adapt in some way? Many thanks.

question: bones fusing together in the sacrum. arent they already fused in the sacrum? :-) thanks

It is an excellent lesson! I downloaded your lesson about lower back years ago and use it in special cases. Today it was a MOMENT of liver meridian. Thank you!
