A beautiful pose that stretches your hips, quads, groin, and shoulders...considered as a hip opener, heart opener or even a backbend.

Fun fact: I used to practice the pose at home quite alot with straps or bands since I couldn't get into the form properly. But when I was out here in this place, doing my poses, suddenly it happened out of nowhere! So this came as a huge surprise to me. ๐Ÿ˜

Practicing YOGA can take you to a serious path of self discovery or simply just entertain you, surprise you, uplift you, give your body and mind the health it needs & show you a whole new world within YOU itself. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŒ Do give it a try! ๐Ÿ’•

Ps; I've been super busy since the past few days and I guess I'll continue to be so until next month...have things coming up, so might not be able to post often like before...but I'll try to keep up anyways! ๐Ÿ˜

Lots of love to all. โค๏ธ

A quick tip for pain-free cobra pose : engage your abdominals and work towards an even bend along the whole length of spine. Don't push yourself to reach into a pose immediately. Only do what's comfortable for you BUT keep practicing!

My positioning is slightly different in this picture since I was trying not slip off the rocks as there was water flowing over the area where I had placed my hand along with soft sulphur sand.

A perfect chest opener and backbend to start the day with! @ Ain Sahban Sulfur Springs โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™

Practicing outside can be really challenging and will need lots of prep and effort to make it happen. It might even be out of your comfort zone. But I feel I work myself more effectively when I'm outside. When I practice at home, I know I'm safe, there's a stable land and a soft cushioning mat below me, there's no one staring at me like "what's she even trying to do", etc. But the moment I'm practicing out, I have 100 things hitting my head and the fear of losing a grip, falling down, hitting hard, breaking my teeth or any other bone (a nightmare for a dentist) not having a stable ground for support, people moving around distracting me, losing my focus and what not...

While I practice at home some poses seem like a routine, easy peesy stretch for me. But those same poses can be felt thoroughly for every second when I'm doing it outside. That time, I'm suddenly aware of every muscle and cell that's moving or contracting to make that pose happen which basically means that I'm a 100 times more alert when I practice outside. So it's a good thing to try your practice in different environments and test yourself.

Is it just me who feels that the environment makes a difference in our routine practice? ๐Ÿ˜‚

โœจ Day Eight: Balancing Pose - I AM GROUNDED โœจ

I AM GROUNDED and secure. I am rooted into the earth. The energy of the earth is flowing through my finger tips while I center myself with my breath and stay balanced.

For a balancing pose that makes me feel grounded as well, nothing gets to it like arm balances for me. So doing a crow pose here.

Ps; since I blindly trust my photographer ๐Ÿ˜œ and also as I was soo exhausted to cross check the pics...it's only after reaching home I realized that the pose isn't quiet clear...so supplementing it with another one I've done that has better pose clarity and form... ๐Ÿ˜‚

โœจ Day Seven: Hip Opener - I AM FORGIVEN โœจ

We are God's creation. Yet we all do many, many mistakes. But if God can forgive us, who are we not to forgive? So yes, I AM FORGIVEN.

Know what you have done. Know what has happened. Know how you can fix it or do better. Because acceptance/acknowledgement is the first step towards it. Forgive yourself, only then comes peace and a new chance to prove yourself that you have changed for better. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™

Ps; yeah, I just laid down there in frog's pose on the wet beach sand not caring about my clothes ๐Ÿ˜‚ but honestly it was so comfy, soft and grounding to the earth! This pose is ultimate hip opener for me because nothing (yet!) challenges my hips like how it does.

โœจ Day Two: Backbend - I AM Strong โœจ

"The bamboo that bends is stronger than the oak that resists."

I AM STRONG. Because despite some huge failures and many hurdles in my life, I've kept moving ahead without giving up. It doesn't matter if you fall down or break into million pieces. It's not called as a failure. What matters is that you get back up after giving yourself that well deserved time to heal from it completely.

A greatful heart has a huge place for love, not only for oneself but everybody around. That's how I fell in love with yoga because it taught me to love myself and to spread that love. โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ

So, here's a lot of love to all my beautiful hosts and co-participants. โค๏ธ

WE DID IT GUYS!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘ CHALLENGE โœ…

While we all targeted different areas of our body and set different intentions for each of these beautiful 10 days, don't forget to give yourself a good & well deserving rest! I did have many poses in my mind for today but I decided to go for savasana so as to remind myself and everyone out here that rest is as much important as the others. This is something that I've learnt from 2020. To be kind to myself, to not get lured into the rat race and take mini breaks while I do a thing called life. ๐Ÿ˜‰

We did so many amazing things...heart openers, twists, bends, stand ups, inversions, binds, shapes, balances and mudras....a beautiful flow...so take this day to rest, look back and embrace this small journey we've had together! ๐Ÿ˜โค๏ธ๐Ÿ™

Never underestimate resting poses because rest = healing & recovery time = being able to perform/do better next time. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Thank you to all the lovely hosts for motivating and inspiring me everyday. Lots of love and hugs to all. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ˜˜

Ps; Sorry that I haven't been able to catch up much with all my co-participants in the last few days...I'm soo packed up with stuff to do that showing up for this was like a miracle! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Also, thank God my feet are up in this pic or you wouldn't know whether I'm facing up or down. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคฃ It's a winter special effect. ๐Ÿคฃ Couldn't handle the cold wind hitting my face.
