20.01.2022 Anti-Virus Yoga The Corona virus is spreading fast all around the world Here are simple yoga poses I use to boost the immune system

18.01.2022 Surya Namaskar . The Sun Salutations are a combination of poses practiced in series, with each pose successively deepening with every repetition. It is typicall...y performed at the start of the practice, classically upon awakening in the morning. In this way, the Sun Salutations can be viewed as a type of warm-up for the full practice. . Heat is generated in the body, raising the core temperature and causing the blood vessels on the body surface to dilate. Vasodilatation combines with sweating to dissipate the heat and regulate the core temperature of the body. Sweating also releases toxins from the body. . The increased heat raises blood flow to the muscles and makes the tendons and ligaments more pliable. Synovial fluid circulates in the joints, carrying nutrients to the articular cartilage and removing debris from the joint space. . The brain creates set lengths for muscles based on regular activity. Sitting in a chair or riding a bicycle on a regular basis signals the brain to set the length of the muscles about the hips for flexion. Consistent practice of Yoga lengthens the muscles, improving range of motion throughout the body. This creates new set lengths in the brain. Muscles tend to shorten when we sleep, accounting for stiffness in the morning. The Sun Salutations are a variation of ballistic stretching. Use this type of stretch to take the muscles back out to the length that was set in the brain during your previous practice. . . Excerpt and images from our book The Key Poses of Yoga. . .

10.01.2022 Baddha Konasana - Bound Angle Pose . Squeeze the sides of the buttocks to abduct and externally rotate the hips, drawing the knees toward the floor. The gluteus... maximus externally rotates the hips while the gluteus medius and tensor fascia lata abduct them. Activating these muscles stimulates reciprocal inhibition of the adductor group on the inner thighs, allowing them to relax into the stretch. You may note the paradox in contracting the gluteus medius and tensor fascia lata, since they also internally rotate the hips. In Baddha Konasana, the primary action of these muscles is to abduct the femurs. Certain fibers of these muscles must also be stretched to allow for the external rotation, as described in the preparation. . Step 2 in a functional anatomic break down of the pose Baddha Konasana taken from our book Yoga Mat Companion 2 - Anatomy for Hip Openers and Forward Bends". .

09.01.2022 Ardha Chandrasana - Pose 5 . Preparatory Pose 1 - Moving into Ardha chandrasana, begin with a high version of Trikonasana.

Ardha Chandrasana - Then, engage your quadriceps to straighten the front knee and raise your pelvis gradually like a hydraulic lift. Your psoas will stabilize your pelvis.
