FUN FACTS OM Yoga Nidra: Visste du at 15 minutter med Yoga Nidra er mer effektiv 30 minutters middagshvil?

Og at Yoga Nidra kan redusere smerteopplevelsen og påvirke vår psyke i positiv retning?

Yoga Nidra er kjent som yogisk søvn, og er kort forklart en form for guidet meditasjon hvor man roterer sin oppmerksomhet til ulike deler av kroppen, mens man samtidig ligger i en behagelig stilling.

En banebrytende studie fra 2002 (Kjaer et al.) fant at dopamin øker med 65 % under Yoga Nidra (!).

Dopamin er en kjemisk budbringer som spiller en stor rolle i hvordan vi føler glede, oppstemthet, og er relatert til interessen for å gjøre noe og hvordan vi oppfatter smerte.

Dette er interessant fordi mange psykiske og kronisk smerte-lidelser er relatert til redusert nivå av dopamin og at vi nå har verktøy fra yoga som kan påvirke dette.

Ta deg tid til 15 min Yoga Nidra hver dag og kjenn forskjellen

The Tao of Heaven

Taiji is traditionally explained by the sun's relationship with the Earth to produce light (Yang) and cast shadows (Yin), but maybe we should explore deeper into it's true nature, and how it's magnanimous virtues should be applied to our practice. Taiji is not religion, morals, ethics, or philosophy. It is a means to understand the workings of Tao (everything in the universe). After observing reality, we are free to interpret and apply it's teachings in any way we see fit.

Our Sun is one of trillions of stars throughout the universe. It will offers its warmth and light continuously without interruption, until like all stars, finally burns out. It gives freely and unconditionally to all casting no judgements. It asks no obedience or sacrifice. It will be with us to the end of all time.

Unlike humanity it is Wuji, void and empty of all Yinyang discrimination. If the sun could be controlled by men, clearly there would be those who bask in it's radiant brilliance, while others would be forced to suffer in the dark and cold. It would be a commodity. People may worship God, but few follow this example of God's selflessness. It is too idealistic and difficult to live by. Instead the blessed covet in times of shortage and waste in time of plenty.

Unfortunately, many people don't realize Taiji is inclusiveness. There is absolutely nothing too small or too grand that it does not include. We are just as much what we hate and reject, as what we choose to love and accept. This is what is meant by being enlightened. Now that we know the truth, how will we proceed? This is practice.

🔈 FASCIA OF UPPER LIMB

Anterior wall and floor of axilla.

A. Axillary fascia forms the floor of the axilla and is continuous with the pectoral fascia.

B. The pectoral fascia surrounds the pectoralis major, forming the anterior layer of the anterior axillary wall. The clavipectoral fascia extends between the coracoid process of the scapula, the clavicle, and the axillary fascia.

The fascia of the pectoral region is attached to the clavicle and sternum. The pectoral fascia invests the pectoralis major and is continuous inferiorly with the fascia of the anterior abdominal wall. The pectoral fascia leaves the lateral border of the pectoralis major and becomes the axillary fascia , which forms the floor of the axilla (compartment deep to skin of the armpit). Deep to the pectoral fascia and pectoralis major, another fascial layer, the clavipectoral fascia , descends from the clavicle, enclosing the subclavius and then pectoralis minor, becoming continuous inferiorly with the axillary fascia.

The part of the clavipectoral fascia between the pectoralis minor and subclavius, the costocoracoid membrane , is pierced by the lateral pectoral nerve, which primarily supplies the pectoralis major. The part of the clavipectoral fascia inferior to the pectoralis minor, the suspensory ligament of the axilla , supports the axillary fascia and pulls it and the overlying skin upward during abduction of the arm, forming the axillary fossa (armpit).

The scapulohumeral muscles that cover the scapula, and form the bulk of the shoulder, are also ensheathed by deep fascia. The deltoid fascia descends over the superficial surface of the deltoid from the clavicle, acromion, and scapular spine. From the deep surface of the deltoid fascia, numerous septa (connective tissue partitions) pe*****te between the fascicles (bundles) of the muscle. Inferiorly, the deltoid fascia is continuous with the pectoral fascia anteriorly and the dense infraspinous fascia posteriorly. The muscles that cover the anterior and posterior surfaces of the scapula are covered superficially with deep fascia, which is attached to the margins of the scapula and posteriorly to the spine of the scapula.
