peanut butter and jelly cookies and milk
some things are just made to go together
and today we’re learning about another
pairing that’s destined for greatness hi
I’m Rebecca Brayton and welcome to
watchmojo.com and today I’m speaking
with Ingrid steamer and Mimi kooky about
chocolate and yoga firstly can you
describe the workshop for me a little
bit the workshop basically is an
appreciation of breathing through yoga
and once there is an appreciation of
breathing your understanding of tasting
and tasting chocolate is enhanced and
through the poses you also learn about
your different chakras which are energy
levels and each chocolate is mixed with
something pure that goes with the energy
level of that chakra and you feel
amazing what would you say is the aim of
the workshop what it did for me was make
me aware that chocolate is really good
like there is good chocolate out there
and then just the poses I mean I love
yoga and I love bringing people into
yoga to really understand what yoga
really is it’s not just another exercise
the first pose is the tree pose breathe
into your left foot just feel relaxed
feel secure in that left foot and right
knee and then you can either leave it
here at the ankle or at the knee now
that you’ve been rooted into your first
pose your first chakra the object is to
relax
and then take this piece of chocolate
and I want you to put it on your tongue
and then bring it to the roof of your
mouth and allow six seconds to use your
imagination any thoughts any thoughts
from childhood any thoughts from flavors
that you’ve experienced before okay and
then we go on to the next chakra hold
your feet and you’re going to slide the
sit bones back by leaning forward take a
deep breath in lengthen the spine and as
you breathe out slowly come back up
you’re at a point of deep breathing
you’re feeling the breath run through
your body and you’re on to number two
which is different than number one and
it’s orange and here you go
tip if you want another one to get the
full taste take a moment visualize
what’s inside the chocolate what’s your
feeling from the breathing you got it so
this one is one of those that you can’t
mellow out on so bring your knee over
the ankle and then deep breath in and
you want to breathe right from here down
into your tail ball then we bring up the
arms keep breathing and we’re on to the
yellow chakra to entice the imagination
a little mystery of flavors everyone has
different number of taste buds but
everyone’s creative and if you allow
yourself to really appreciate breathing
you’ve gained this creativity in your
work in your daily life in your
relationships it just changes things it
really does and by doing these different
tastes of chocolate with the breathing
with the yoga you walk out of there and
say you know what there are so many
exciting things in fair
you
