When I first started practicing yoga I lived in New York City and began to realize how abused my feet were from lots of walking in heels and uncomfortable shoes. I began a relaxing and cleansing foot practice that is grounding and pure bliss - from head to toe! Does this Spark an idea?
Do the Standing Side Stretch Prenatal Yoga Pose
Yoga is a wonderfully relaxing exercise for pregnant women. Standing poses are recommended in the first trimester of pregnancy to strengthen the legs and help circulation. Follow these easy steps to practice the standing side stretch.
Do Yin Yoga Poses
Yin yoga is an ancient form of yoga that strengthens the body. Yin yoga develops the body so you can comfortably hold positions for a longer time. The connective tissue is stretched due to the length of time you hold the poses. The yin practice includes seated meditation with twists, forward bends, back bends and hip openers. Some examples are the dragon pose, seal pose and saddle pose.
Practice Karma Yoga
Karma yoga is unique in that it combines the mental aspects of yoga and life. Karma yoga focuses on getting back what you put into your life, the life of others and the world as a whole. Any act you perform and the outcome of each is related to karma and karmic yoga.
Practice Couples Yoga
Couples often look for ways to bond with each other. One way to do this is to take up couple's yoga. A couple that practices yoga together is going to find that they feel closer to each other both physically and mentally. Improve both your health and relationship through couple's yoga.
