Yoga is a practice of movements that improve your strength and flexibility, but most importantly, it calms the mind. Every pose/asana tells a story. And what you bring to the mat each time, provides its unique climax. Expect the unexpected from each practice.
This week, my yoga story starts off upside down, after two consecutive long weekends! But today is the day I get re-focused on balance. With balance, comes emotional stability. So now that I'm settled in to calmness, I'm looking for some stimulating challenges (hence image #4). My quest for constant stimulation has taken me to new heights. So if you feel like your life is sluggish and predictable, shake things up! Life is so short; why not flip upside down and kick up your heels once and a while?! You'll be pleasantly amused by the sudden surge of energy you'll feel!
This post introduces 5 asanas that allow you to hit the height of maximum intensity - all in good ol' yogic fun! Get your story to live up to any Blockbuster hit by trying some of the poses below. Get into light, comfy, sweat-friendly gear* and go for it!
