“Gentle Yoga for Gentle Souls CD” by Heather Till

Posted under Tip of the week, Yoga

I have purchased this beautiful CD by my dear friend and teacher Heather Till. It is a truly relaxing CD and an easy to follow Audio CD for Gentle Yoga.

CD

"A journey into the healing world of Heather Till’s therapeutic style of yoga teachings or one into
the vast musical talents of her partner and husband, Perry Smith? This is a choice those taking the journey into “Gentle Yoga for Gentle Souls” will not have to make, as this yoga and relaxation CD allows travelers to journey into both worlds.
Described as grounding, relaxing, calming, inspirational and best of all, do-able, this 55-minute
guided audio is designed especially for those new to yoga or needing a slower pace. Mindfully and masterfully, Till’s gentle and restorative yoga style integrates breath awareness and meditation with a gentle yoga floor routine accompanied by an eclectic mix of chimes, chanting, piano and classical guitar. The first CD produced by the very talented couple surely will not be the last.
Known for her exceptional talent in prenatal, childbirth and post-partum yoga, Till developed her therapeutic approach to yoga to help students with health challenges get the most out of their practice. The 10-year yoga veteran’s clients have included cancer victims and high-risk pregnancy women. “If you can breathe, you can do yoga,” Till says. “It’s everyone’s birthright to be healthy, happy and whole. Yoga’s mindbody practices facilitate this.”
In making “Gentle Yoga for Gentle Souls,” Smith did what he does best – compose on the spot. Improvising music to the movements of dancers or to the voices of others, the musician’s empathic ability to allow the feeling and creative expression of others to flow freely from his music shines in the production. From classical guitar, mandolin, flute, bells, African drums and piano to rock-n-roll, Smith’s diverse musical talents accompany dance classes at UNCW and performances by Turning the Wheel Wilmington and The Dance Cooperative. He also plays guitar and percussion for Cosmic Groove Lizards, No Outlet, The Chickenhead Blues Band, The Sea Pans and The Community Drummers and performs solo regularly on the classical guitar and teaches private guitar lessons."
