“Ollin” is the 17th day of the sacred Mexica (pronounced Me-SHEE-ka) calendar, representing motion, seismic movement and transformation. It also symbolizes a way of bringing balance day to day, even in times of struggle. So too is the yoga, a way of releasing or letting go the energies and patterns that get in the way of our true self. With consistent practice, change occurs, bringing equanimity. Transformation takes place physically, mentally, and spiritually, beginning on your mat and magically creating change in all aspects of your life.
