Oil in Sanskrit is “sneha” – another word for love. Following our Pitta Yoga class, we will discuss what an Abhyanga, self-massage, practice is and how to best practice at home. You will mix your own Abhyanga oil specifically for the Pitta season. Bring your own base oil, your choice of essential oils that are Pitta pacifying, and an old hand towel. A list of base oils and essential oils for Pitta season will be sent to you in advance.
