Energetic Posture
When the practice of postures is combined with conscious breathing and deep states of concentration and absorption, prana will sometimes spontaneously "take over" the practice. Suddenly, energy itself will begin to direct the flow of postures. In these moments, we may have a sense of effortlessness, of complete surrender to a force greater than ourselves. This experience can be surprising, compelling and blissful. And it appears to be completely out of our control. We cannot make it happen. We can only let it happen.
