Garurasana ✨ Eagle Pose
A compression posture that releases all the tension built up from the previous poses and opens all the major joints: hips, knees, ankles, shoulders, elbows and wrists.
It’s normal to struggle with wrapping your arms at first. Your job is to pull down continuously with the arms to develop the flexibility you need in the shoulders and stretch out the tight spots in your neck where we hold tension.
This posture improves blood flow towards the heart, central organs and reproductive organs, improving function, efficiency and detoxification.
It tones the calves, thighs and hips. In the upper body it strengthens the latissimus dorsi, trapezius and deltoid muscles.
It improves the health of your central nervous system, and by compressing your adrenal glands you regulate energy levels, stress, blood sugar, body fluid balance and blood pressure.
It will even help reduce varicose veins. Sit down more and twist like ropes! ✨
