STOP 🧘 Yoga Time 🙏
The lengthening that happens in the spine is providing space within the vertebrae, length and release to tight shortened muscles, and space in the pelvis which brings softness and the full expression of the breath. As the hips are fixed on the rope the lengthening that happens is a kind of traction.
The heart is above the head where it is given a resting place to reduce exertion on the ventricles that comes from standing upright. This all brings a sense of quietness to the brain releasing from mental or physical strain or exertion.
“The light that yoga sheds on life is something special. It does not just change the way we see things: it transforms the person who sees. It brings knowledge and elevates it to wisdom.”
