I couldn't help but remember my grandmother's house in the countryside, and I spent three hours at the nostalgic temple because there was a yoga party there.It's not just a yoga party.
One holiday in June, I was in the dark green, like a lie, with the fact that "this is Tokyo".
I couldn't help but remember my grandmother's house in the countryside, and I spent three hours at the nostalgic temple because there was a yoga party there.It's not just a yoga party. It is a party to celebrate the release of the DVD "Outdoor Yoga vol.3", which proposes a yoga life with an unusual approach of "yoga to enjoy the great outdoors and enjoy the outdoor life".
About 120 people lie down in the garden of the temple and pose ... I'm scared to experience blue sky yoga for the first time in a group that is quite suspicious from the end, and at first it is quite easy to accept the air obediently I couldn't.
However, I took the courage to spread the yoga mat I brought and lie on my back in the middle of the road leading to the temple.
The deep green of early summer that jumps into your eyes
A blue sky that you can't think of as the rainy season
When I close my eyes, I can hear only the sound of flowing water and the chirping of birds, and with deep breathing, the scent of green fills my body.
▲ Yoga surrounded by nature.The air is so thick that you are aware that you are breathing.Everything feels fresh, probably because I usually live in the urban jungle.
As you pose slowly and slowly under the guidance of Shinji Omori, a professional snowboarder and yoga teacher, you can see that your body grows while sweating a little.I surfed in Shonan in the morning and jumped in a car from there for 3 hours.You can see that the muscles that are tired and stiff enough to make a creaking noise soften and relax.
After an hour-long session where you can feel the two dimensions of body and mind spreading softly, enjoy the mangosteen catering dishes. We hosted this party because it is called "modern vegetarian food"THE NORTH FACI feel E's commitment.Food that comes directly into the body is very important to the body and mind.At the moment when my mind and body were in the best condition, all the dishes I ate while being impressed by the happiness of having the best meal tasted very gentle.
▲ Mangosteen catering modern vegetarian cuisine
Even though we don't use any meat or fish, such a wide variety of beautiful dishes will fill your eyes and stomach.Appetizer-rice-dessert, I was surprised!
A didgeridoo player who is also recognized as an authentic Aboriginal in anticipation of a calm meal RUBBER The sound of didgeridoo played by is quietly echoing in the precincts.The didgeridoo may be an instrument that you rarely see in everyday life, but it is said to be the oldest woodwind instrument in the world, and GOMA is said to make its sound "closest to the sound that resonates with the earth." It is. "
▲ GOMA
The didgeridoo is a traditional Australian Aboriginal instrument.Create sounds by moving the tongue, cheeks, and internal organs.A unique playing method called "circular breathing method" is used, in which the player breathes in through the nose while breathing out from the mouth, and continues to produce sound without interruption in the middle of the song.
▲ Aurora
The music is provided for "Outdoor Yoga vol.1".
Another cool yoga session in the afternoon.While yoga in the morning was a program that had a total of 1 minutes of yoga flow and was so dynamic that sweat oozes out, this time after meals, it was a relaxation program centered on breathing for 20 to 12 minutes. (These two programs are on the DVD)
If you have a chance to go into nature, please try this breath relaxation alone.You will be able to feel yourself more naturally and more sensitively than usual.
After relaxing with yoga, I felt the feeling of flowing quietly at Aurora's live concert, and at the end I was impressed by the words of the priest of Monshuin, which was the venue. ..
"Yoga and Buddhism both have a common origin, born in the same place, so they both approach the roots of the world, evoke the essence from there, and provide true healing from the depths. I thought there was. "
▲ The North Face rider Masanori Takeuchi also rushed in.There are surfboards and golf equipment on the Hiace that has been remodeled to horizontal specifications.Until a while ago, snowboards were also piled up here, and it seems that all three types of sacred treasures of Mr. Takeuchi were available.Full of play equipment at any time so that you can enjoy the most according to the conditions!

Interview with Shinji Omori DESHI
★ What made you start yoga?
A few years ago, my back suddenly suffered severe pain of unknown cause, and I couldn't snowboard at all.At that time (fatefully !?) my friend had a yoga book and I managed to do it.Then, in just four days, the pain that had been going on until then disappeared like a lie, and I was able to resume snowboarding.It's been four or five years since then, but I've only caught a cold once.There are many snowboarders who always have bombs on their hips and knees, but if they continue to practice yoga, they will not be in such a bad condition at all, and their bodies are always in the best condition.
★ How was the DVD shot?
Taken at Shikotsu-Toya National Park.It's a very beautiful place in nature.
Outdoor yoga does not mean that you should do yoga outdoors, but why not try yoga in a "good place" that you met while playing sports outdoors or enjoying nature?It is a proposal.
★ Please give a few words to those who watch "Outdoor Yoga vol.1".
Breathing is the most important thing in yoga.You can just breathe.
It doesn't matter if it's once a day or once a month, but it's important to continue regularly according to your rhythm, so please continue at your own pace.I hope this DVD can help you with that.
