Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and rather than making it just one day, will you do this with me for the full month? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">For this challenge, we&#8217;re going to post the posture of the day below like we did before, but include a quote about:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Something you&#8217;re grateful for<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Something you&#8217;re thankful for<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Or, your favorite quote about gratitude.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Another aspect of this challenge is focused on the fall season, and the vata constitution.&nbsp;Vata is one of the&nbsp;three doshas discussed in Ayurveda. Ayurveda means the science of life, and is the aspect of yoga that we follow to balance&nbsp;our day to day living. When we understand Ayurveda, we can understand how to our bodies and moods are effected by the&nbsp;time of the day, temperatures, seasons, and how our diet effects our inner peace<\/span>. <a title=\"Interview With Kyle Roberts: Balancing Your Life Through Ayurveda\" href=\"https:\/\/theyogimovement.com\/2013\/11\/30\/interview-with-kyle-roberts-balancing-your-life-through-ayurveda\/\">You might want to check out the Interview I did with Kyle Roberts last year, Ayurvedic Specialist, about ayurveda, and specifically how to avoid colds during the changing seasons.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">During the Fall season, vata is the primary dosha. Vata governs physical movement, circulation, communication, mental activity, sensory perception, motor function, respiration, heart function and all nervous system impulses. The key qualities of vata&nbsp;and fall alike are dry, light, cold, rough, subtle, mobile and clear. The vata type is naturally light and delicate with dry eyes and skin. With irregular appetites and thirst, vatas often experience digestive and absorption problems.<\/span> <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/1wMQUJ3\">If you&#8217;re curious, you can take a dosha test here and see what your personal constituion is!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">All of the postures for #letyourheartfallopen will be focused on heart opening, and vata, which we&#8217;ll also explain in our posts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/p\/uwr10Sg8n2\/?modal=true\">Click Here (or the picture below) to take you right to my Instagram so you can enter easily!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #003300;\">Here&#8217;s how it works (Scroll down):&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">PIN THIS&nbsp;so you can refer to it easily every day!<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/p\/uwr10Sg8n2\/?modal=true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4920 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/theyogimovement.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/letyourheartfallopenigphotos.jpg\" alt=\"#letyourheartfallopenigphotos\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theyogimovement.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/letyourheartfallopenigphotos.jpg 640w, https:\/\/theyogimovement.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/letyourheartfallopenigphotos-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/theyogimovement.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/letyourheartfallopenigphotos-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">HERE ARE THE RULES:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\">A.
