This may be the final addition to the Geehi gallery.
It is so dynamic I want to share it.
Yoga is very much about awarenes. About experiencing life force.

Yes it is healthy functional movement and has been dubbed "self soothing".

Enjoy the sheer exhilaration of this yogi's plunge into icy mountain stream on a beautiful autumn day of sun.

Now that's yoga. 💥 Feel the Life Force.

Om shanti.

Geehi Yoga Camp was "a reset" .
Stillness is something the location excels at.
Long vistas for meditatative vision and plenty of space.
Attendance varied over the 3 day week end. Some stayed the whole time. Others - in the timeframes they had available.

Check out the timeline gallery for the camp in day #1 #2 #3 posts.

CROCODILE DREAMING
How to unlock the Crocodile's solution to release stress.

Looking for a fast, easy way to unwind from the stress of the day?

I'm sure you remember this pose from many Yoga Desperado classes. It is grounding and rejuvenating. It is an instant key to move into being in the moment.

It's a favourite of mine. In this yoga position it is nearly impossible to not breathe like a crocodile.

The crocodile pose (makarasana) may be just what you need.

As the scientific community has known for years, deep, diaphragmatic breathing triggers the body’s relaxation response. The main purpose of the crocodile pose is to train us to breathe this way, so that we stop the stress response and activate the relaxation response to deep rest.

In fact, it is difficult to avoid breathing diaphragmatically in this posture. Resting in crocodile for 5–10 minutes can bring a more refreshed approach to the day and relieve fatigue.

The extra oxygen enriched blood settles inflammation and aids digestive processes....for both body and mind.

This is an easy pose for beginners and a great daily relaxation exercise for anyone.
Practicing crocodile over time encourages a greater awareness of how you’re breathing, as well as a deepening your attention to being in the moment.

To give this pose a try, follow these simple steps:

1. Lie on your belly on a blanket or a mat.

2. Extend your legs and spread them about shoulder-width apart (or slightly wider), making sure your legs and feet are comfortable. Toes can be turned either out or in. If it is more comfortable, you can keep your legs together.

3. Fold your arms by placing each hand on the opposite elbow. Draw the arms in and rest your forehead on your forearms, so that your chest is slightly off the floor.

4. Close your eyes and relax your legs, abdomen, shoulders, and face. Allow yourself to be supported by the floor, making adjustments until you are comfortable.

5. Focus your attention on your breath. Feel your belly pressing into the floor as you inhale, and feel it drawing up as you exhale. Remember that each inhalation is rejuvenating and each exhalation is cleansing.

6. Notice how the lower side ribs and lower back expand with each inhalation and contract with each exhalation.

7. Relax in this pose for 5–10 minutes, keeping your attention focused on your breath. When you feel restored, come out of the posture slowly.
