Here is something that I am reading in my yoga book/ journal ( which actually gave me the idea for this post)

Usually our muscles take 24 to 48 hours to recover after a strenuous workout and in the balancing poses like uthita hasta padangushtasan - standing hand to toe pose , which we do for the body as well as the our brain ( to develop new neural connections)
your mind recovers within 3-4 hours and is ready for challenge the very next day , so if you are doing balancing poses say only once in 2 days or even less then actually it may take longer than necessary for you do master these poses …. , so ideally at least thrice a week of yoga is what you need if you want to see progress in your practice. If we wait for too long between trainings we lose some of the benefit that we had from the previous practice. That is the reason when there is a hiatus in your practice, you feel as if you have gone back to square one!

A tip that my teacher used to give us is - practice standing balancing poses like "tree pose " and "utthita "throughout the day , so that your nervous system is able to adapt and store this memory , this skill is like riding the bike or swimming your mind will preserve the memory for a long time.

That is the reason why your yoga instructor may tell you to do at least 15 mins of home practice every single day !

All you need is 15 mins - take that break for your mind and body

A reprieve from non stop news assaulting your mind
A reprieve from worry of what’s going to happen tomorrow
Commit just 30 days for yourself , put your time to good use
Namaste

Do you know ?

One of the greatest benefit you can get from doing lunges is that they can help you even out muscular imbalances in your body. This is because you do them independently, or in other words, you do them one leg at a time, thereby correcting any minor imbalances of the body. Most of us have one side of the body which is not as strong as the other, doing lunge is a great way to fix that in no time at all

Staying present in a pose without trying to move too deep can be tough , we rarely experience what we are actually feeling in our body without getting wrapped up in achieving a goal 🧘‍♀️
Some of these poses can heal a wandering ,unquiet mind as you need a lot of focus - of breath ,of movement but they can also cause pain ! Like overstretching your hips when done with inattention, causing discomfort near the sacroiliac, or SI, joint in the connection between your sacrum and your pelvis.
Ask yourself, is it worth it to attain a moment’s gain for a lifetime of pain? In asana? In life? 🙏

The least obvious among the risks of not exercising is the impact on your joints and bones.
A regularly exercised (and stretched) joint is flexible, while an unused one is weaker, less elastic, and more prone to nasty tears.
Muscle shortening, due to non-using , no movement , can further the problem by creating involuntary imbalances in the body that may cause injuries over time.
As for the bones especially in elderly women, are susceptible to bone brittleness. Part of this has to do with calcium intake, but exercise is another key component in keeping the bone mass intact.
Have you done some movement today ? 🙂

Each day you breathe between 20 to 30 thousand times , and roughly 10 million breaths a year !! Maybe one billion a lifetime ⭐️
We all know how to breathe but very likely that most of us don’t use the lungs to its full capacity. If we do not utilise every breath then we may be waving goodbye to that extra energy that is available to all of us in our daily lives
By consciously taking control of your breath ( pranayama ) you can strengthen and transform your mind and body 🧘‍♀️
🧘‍♀️ 💫 namaste have a good ☀️ Sunday

I know sometimes I oversell yoga , but if you are ready for a beautiful journey towards health then pls read on -

Yoga and the Body:

increases flexibility
strengthens the muscles and tendons, especially stabilizer muscles
increases bone density of the entire skeletal system
develops balance and coordination
straightens posture and body alignment
improves function of internal organs via (a) proper posture so they’re held correctly and (b) internal compression, wringing them out so they work better
enhances cardiovascular ability, both lowering resting heart rate and making oxygen use more efficient
burns energy (150-400 calories per hour)
decreases chance of injury
fixes muscular imbalances
stimulates the immune system
decreases cortisol levels, resulting in lower blood sugar levels and heightened insulin response, resulting in less inflammation and less chance of diabetes and heart disease
Decreases the chance of arthritis and joint issues by moving full motion and “squeezing and soaking” the cartilage, giving it a flush and extra nutrients
decreases pain and fatigue
teaches you some cool skills like headstands, the splits and the ability to lift your leg higher than your head
Yoga and the Mind:

increases happiness
improves discipline
Enhances focus
Increases your energy
increases Proprioception (the ability for the mind to direct where and how the body moves. Touching your fingers to your nose with your eyes closed, or stepping back and having your foot land perfectly parallel to your other foot without looking takes proprioception)
decreases stress and tension
improves reaction time
inspires a better sleep
improves performance on mental tests (studies have shown!)
provides time for moving meditation, if you’re into that sort of thing
enhances self-worth

gives a sense of accomplishment and pride
It does pretty much everything your body and mind need

If you read any yoga books or articles there will be a lot of talk on shirsasana or headstand , the benefits are innumerable just like the techniques !
This much coveted intermediate pose inverts the spine so that the apex of the skull becomes the lowest point of the body , this has great many health benefits , for me I love the way it makes me feel calm and soothing , Especially when done on an aerial yoga rope /belt
Headstands are good for calming the nerves of the brains and sensory organs .
If you are a beginner please try with someone who can guide you or use the wall. To avoid compression on the back of the neck and skull actively raise your legs towards the ceiling.
This support of rope allows me to press my feet into each other in baddha konasana in shirsasana allowing the feeling of more space in my hips.
If you are not yet able to do headstand don’t worry , a firm cushion under your head in adhomukha svanasana ( dog pose ) with your feet hip width apart can have similar benefit .
Namaste 🙏 🧘‍♀️

Besides lack of time, one of the biggest excuse I hear from folks all the time when it comes to doing any exercise/ moving body is -it's too late for me , or "I've been sitting and inactive too long" or I'm just not naturally flexible or I'm too old/overweight / too ( insert any/ all lame reasons here )

But I get it totally ..
Many people may think of me as silly , am in my fifties and want to master handstand and I thought it was "too late" for me to get started with handbalancing.

I thought my body was too old and I can never reach that level so why try?

Then I realised , its never too late , you are never too old , its just the story we make up!

Time for a new story and this time its your own race .
Reclaim your ability to move naturally and make a start today !
Namaste 🙏

Trying to teach a challenging class that is sustainable yet feasible, is something a yoga instructor often struggles with. I have to strike a balance between a practice that is inspiring and innovative to my students yet something that is steady and methodical. I want my students to be enthusiastic about practicing yoga every day in the hopes that it nurtures them and makes them feel content while meeting their needs.

Learning yoga and now being able to teach yoga, is a precious gift. So if you would like to learn yoga, or give the gift of yoga to a friend, parent or loved one who truly needs it - please feel free to share my information with them 🙏🏼

All levels welcome to practice with me.

Yours truly,
Sudha 💛
