BOAT POSE { navasana }
Navasana is a core strengthening pose that creates whole body integration and balance. Abdominal work is key to any healthy yoga practice, because strong abdominals take unnecessary pressure off your lower back. Building core muscles creates inner strength and stability that gives you a deeper seat of power and balance throughout your body.
From the seated position. extend your legs strait to a 45 degree angle as you reach your arms forward, parallel to the floor. Contract your abdominal wall and lift your sternum. Gaze forward and breathe.
Alignment
Balance on your tail and sitting bones. Use your core power to raise your legs and torso. Keep your lower back as strait as possible (avoid rounding or overarching). Press your thighs together. Activate your feet. Draw your sternum up to the sky.
Reach your arms forward and activate your hands.
Modification
You can either bend your knees slightly or work with one foot on the floor if lifting both legs feels too strenuous. You can also keep your hands on the floor as you extend your legs strait to maintain balance.

I came to Indigo Yoga through the invitation of a good friend in January 2011. Before coming to Indigo, my experience with yoga was limited to practicing with DVDs and taking a few classes at local gyms. It was striking to me the difference between how I had experienced yoga before practicing in a community like Indigo and after. Before, yoga was a series of difficult poses with an achievement focus. Now, yoga for me is movement meditation. It is a sacred space to come and be fully present, and greet who I am with compassion each and every day.
In the Baptiste 40 Day Program at Indigo, I remember we were asked to reflect on what the boldest thing is that we've ever done. My answer to that question is fundamental to why I show up on the mat. My answer was and is that the boldest thing I have done (and really any of us can do) is to be fully known. My time on the mat is an opportunity to be genuine with who I am, limitations and all, and challenge myself to take that sense of newness of becoming off the mat into my interactions and relationships with others. Indigo is an authentic place where you can meet yourself and others without pretense, judgment, or competition. The larger Indigo community encourages and welcomes those once strangers gathered to be present, real, and let the rest go.
I graduated from TCU with a Bachelors in Social Work and from Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio with a Masters in Social Work. I have lived all over the United States and moved back to Fort Worth in 2009 after living in North Carolina for almost a decade. I currently work part-time organizing children and youth summer camps and weekend retreats. I have been married for almost 15 years and am lucky to share the journey of life with Rob Morris. We have three beautiful children, Adelynn age 13, Elanor age 10, and Oliver age 7. I love spending time with my family, yoga, organic gardening, laughing, and reading. I strive to learn how to leave to leave a lighter footprint and honor the ways we are all connected on earth. I love to travel with a wanderlust to learn and be with those who are indigenous to whatever place I land.
I am grateful to Indigo Yoga and the practice of yoga in general to work towards being more fully human and fully alive. Indigo Yoga is a wonderful community to begin to explore, dream, and challenge who I am on and off the mat.
