Camel Pose (Ustrasana) 🐪💘
Heart wide open. Throat fully expressed.
This isn’t about flexibility — it’s about regulation.
In camel pose, we open the heart chakra and the throat, stimulating the vagus nerve (which runs from the brain down to the gut) and activating the parasympathetic nervous system — the part of your body responsible for rest, repair, digestion, immune support, and healing.
Yes, exercise releases endorphins, but postures like this do something deeper — they force you to slow your breath, soften resistance, and calm the nervous system from the inside out.
You can’t muscle your way through camel. You have to breathe. And that breath is what lowers cortisol, supports autoimmune balance, helps manage chronic disease, and trains your body to feel safe again.
This Valentine’s Day, open your heart — not just for love, but for healing, regulation, and resilience. 💛🫶
