Kshama — forgiveness, letting go

The medicine Pitta rarely gives itself — a heart-opening practice of forgiveness and surrender, built for the perfectionism and self-criticism the fire type knows too well.

Forgiveness as practice

Kshama means forgiveness. It is, quietly, the hardest thing for a Pitta type — the perfectionist who drives themselves hardest, judges themselves most sharply, and rarely lets anything, least of all themselves, off the hook. The Pitta fire, turned inward, becomes self-criticism and burnout.
Kshama Flow is built to soften exactly this. Through heart-opening postures and a spirit of surrender, it teaches the Pitta type to turn their fire into warmth rather than judgment — to let go, to soften, to forgive. It is, for many Pitta students, the hardest class on the timetable and the one they most need.
What happens in the class
The practice moves through gentle heart-opening backbends that release the chest and shoulders where Pitta holds tension, alongside long, surrendered forward folds that teach letting go. Cooling breath runs throughout, and the class closes with a loving-kindness meditation — turning the Pitta capacity for intensity toward compassion, for others and for oneself. The atmosphere is deliberately non-competitive and kind.
