In fact, it doesn’t really matter if you follow the instructor or not. It’s not the type of class where you’ll be asked to work on inversions or complicated balancing positions. According to Rodrigues, the class begins with breathwork, followed by a slow flow class and some long-hold poses and finished with an extra-long savasana (corpse pose). Classes are slower and more intentional than your average flow yoga class. He says that he feels more creative during these classes and finds that his mind can focus more fully on the flow.Īnd if you’re worried that the combination of mary jane and mariayasana (cat pose) may be too much for your body and brain to handle, don’t worry. “ both stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system - the body’s “rest and digest” setting - so combining them together really creates something special,” says Rodrigues. “It is totally optional to the practitioner,” says Rodrigues, and you will get a benefit from the class regardless if you’re high or not.”īut microdosing is the point of the class, and Rodrigues thinks yoga and cannabis naturally complement each other. In fact, you don’t even have to come to class high. Cannabis, of course, is the only legal “drug” in British Columbia, but it’s a judgment-free studio. While it’s not a requirement, guests are encouraged to come to class high. He says it’s based on something he was already doing in his personal practice and wanted to test the waters to see if others were interested in the experience. Rodrigues opened the modern one-room yoga studio in downtown Banff in November 2021 and began the popular “Flower with Flow” class just a month later.

We’ll expand on each of the individual pillars more as we fulfil our intention to transmit this idea of full spectrum health.“The goal is to be microdosing so that you feel more uplifted and aware rather than high off your seat,” says Flow State Yoga owner Coleman Rodrigues.
Notice where you can make adjustment, take action and set fertile grounds for you to bloom into the best version of yourself. The idea is to take stock of how well you are honouring each of the pillars. The simplicity of this message makes it easy to remember the road map ahead. The following actions equate to the positive habits we must build on the journey toward full spectrum health.
It is the ethos that runs through all that we do. This system calms the noise and brings order to the chaos. It is understanding that what is good for the planet, is good for us and what is good for us, is good for the planet. It is honouring the truth that we are complex beings requiring a myriad of foundational practices to be acknowledged and worked on in order to be fully optimised humans. To orientate oneself toward full spectrum health is to seek to thrive. They are the umbrellas over a number of foundational practices to embody that serve as an orientation toward what we call ‘full spectrum health’. The four pillars of health are fundamental cornerstones of becoming a healthy human.
