Wheel Pose (Urdhva Dhanurasana)

Practicing this pose feels so good to release your back. Great if you are sitting or driving a lot in your day. This shape is the opposite of the usual ‘C’ shape our bodies are in for most of the day at work or watching tv on the couch at night.

Benefits are:
•opens chest, shoulders, hips
•arms , shoulders strength
•stretch abs and quads (muscles at front of thigh)
•release back muscles

Plank and side plank variations…. 🙏🧘‍♀️

Great for upper body and core strength, also these are balance poses which helps to keep the mind in focus. I love practicing yoga, for the mental as well as physical benefits 🙏

Side Angle Pose with binding arms ✨🙏

Side angle pose is deceptively powerful 🙏❤️ the position of the legs is great for building leg strength and flexibility of hips and strength in core muscles to support the spine. Binding arms adds an extra layer of intensity to the pose, it makes you open shoulders back so you don’t lean forward , to maintain correct alignment of the spine always. Wrapping arms around the body also helps you to sink deeper in the pelvis , feeling the stretch more in the thighs and to breath deeper into your chest. Hold for a few breaths. 🙏🧘‍♀️
