    Lisa, This would be a lovely yin class. I’d love to know what you plan to do once your students are settled in these asana. 8-10 minutes can feel like a long time. Do you talk them through a visualisation? Offer gentle assists? Meditations? Etc.

    yes 8-10 mins is a long time. I would have some deep breathing during the start and end of each pose but i really want the person to be able to relax and be still within the pose. But I can see how that could be difficult for some people. I also have music playing softly during a class. I also have a guided meditation at the end but it could be broken down and said within each pose. You have definitely given me so things to think about.
    And this can be a bit unconventional is usually when I am creating a yoga class I will use oracle cards to set my intention and I will read the card during part way through the class or at the end.

    I have a question from this module about breath holds. I understand the purpose of not holding the breath during pregnancy as it increases IAP and obviously there is a higher demand on the body and potential risk of fainting. However, in the notes, you mention ovulation and premenstrual phases. In my experience, I would question if this is a bit excessive? What is the negative effect on ovulation? although conception may have occurred in the luteal phase the embryo is still just a small group of cells at this stage so it is unlikely to have a detrimental effect unless you were holding for prolonged periods of time. Right?
