🌿 Parivṛtta Janu Sirsasana
Revolved Head-to-Knee Pose 🧘‍♀️✨

Find your length, then your twist.

✨ Benefits:
• Stretches side body + hamstrings
• Improves spinal mobility
• Stimulates digestion
• Relieves tension in the neck & shoulders

🧘‍♀️ Cue:
Inhale to lengthen, exhale to soften deeper — keep the twist long, not forced.

Use a strap around the foot or support the bent knee with a block if needed.

Come and join our friendly and supporting class to gradually and safely improve flexibility and feel better.

Balance is practice.

Veerabhadrasana III helps to strengthen the core muscles and makes the leg muscles more shapely.

It is perfect for runners, as it gives agility and vigour. It improves overall balance, posture and focus.

The tricky aspects of the pose are:
- Maintaining square hips
- Finding T shape
- Balancing on 1 leg
- Keeping the back straight
- Correct arms’ position.

Balance isn’t found -it is built.

Why to do inversions in yoga?

Inversions are typically practiced near the end of a yoga session.

Inversions:

- stimulate control mechanisms in the heart and the arteries that monitor and adjust blood pressure.
- May have positive effect on the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the spinal cord and the brain, flushing regions where the fluid has pooled. CSF serves as a mechanical cushion against trauma and distributes nutrients and neuroendocrine factors, such as endorphins, to various parts of the central nervous system.

It is recommended to come out of the inversions slowly to avoid light-headedness. Child-pose could be great to follow inversions.

There are some contra-indications such as hypertension or glaucoma.

Inversions are not about going upside down perfectly. In our classes we help you to choose the pose which is right for you and practice it safely achieving gradual progress.

Back bends create space where tension once lived. All back bends stimulate the central nervous system and increase ability to bear stress. In Urdhva Dhanurasana the liver and spleen are fully stretched, and therefore can function more effectively. Regular practice of the asana keeps body supple, creates a feeling of vitality and lightness.

✨ Yoga & Menopause ✨

Menopause is often considered to be uncomfortable subject which not easy to talk about. It is time of a powerful transition, during which ladies might experience some physical or emotional difficulties.
Yoga can support your body and mind through this change with more ease and compassion.

🌿 How yoga helps during menopause:
• Calms hot flashes
• Reduces stress & anxiety
• Improves sleep quality
• Strengthens bones & muscles
• Encourages self-acceptance and balance

As Swami Muktananda, outstanding yoga therapist and inspired yoga teacher states, “regular yoga practice from the twenties and thirties will ensure maximum health of all body systems. When menopause occurs, the kidneys, bowels and lungs are adequately prepared to withstand changes.”

It is never too late to start doing yoga, however an earlier start (20s or 30s) will help transition better through all the stages of womanhood.

Move gently. Get stronger. Breathe deeply. Listen to your body.
Your body deserves care, patience, and respect 🤍
