Similar to Cobra pose, Locust strengthens the abdominal muscles, shoulder girdle, torso, legs, and arms. It is great preparation for deeper backbends.

Instructions:

1. From Cobra Pose lower the upper body back towards the mat and release the arms alongside the body with the palms facing in.

2. Keep the gaze low towards the mat with the chin tucked in. Legs should be zipped together with the toes pointed back.

3. On an inhale peel the chest and upper torso up and away from the mat, drawing the shoulder blades together and arms back - only to a point where the muscles begin to strain.

4. If this is enough, stay here - to deepen the backbend, point the toes and lift the legs and upper thighs from the mat too.

5. Keep the gaze steady, while extending out through the fingertips as if being pulled back towards the wall behind you.

6. Breathe steadily into your belly and allow a slight rock back and forth as you do so.

Modifications:

For sensitive lower back, the first modification (leaving legs on the mat) is advised until sufficient strength has been built up.

Lymphocytes and phagocytes are white blood cells and your immune system's most powerful allies.

Lymphocytes create antigens for specific pathogens and kill them or es**rt them out of the body, and phagocytes ingest harmful bacteria.

Jealousy is a challenging emotion. This complex feeling encompasses feelings ranging from suspicion to rage to fear to humiliation.

Rather than trying to suppress this powerful emotion, try using it as a signal or a wake-up call. Challenge the negative thoughts that accompany jealousy. Instead of giving in to such thoughts, practice mindfulness to understand what is going on deeper.

Jealousy is common in romantic relationships and stems from distrust. However, jealousy can also happen in other relationships, from friendships to coworkers.

When jealousy is overwhelming, talking to a therapist can help enormously. Share in the comments a time you felt jealous.

People who practice breathwork describe feeling some tingling sensations or feelings of numbness. This is due to changes in your blood oxygen level!

Once the practice is over, and you’ve had time to recalibrate, you’ll likely feel increased clarity, alertness, and an increased mind-body connection.

Prior to the discovery of invisible pathogens interacting within our bodies, scientists used the four criteria of ‘humors’ to diagnose and treat illness.

These criteria, devised by the Greek philosopher Hippocrates, were divided between the four elements, which were linked to bodily fluids: earth (black bile), air (blood), water (phlegm) and fire (yellow bile), which also carried properties of cold, hot, moist, or dry.

We’re fortunate to now know how the immune system protects us from illness!

Here’s how it works: A series of "sensors" within the system detects an invading pathogen, like bacteria or a virus. Then the sensors signal other parts of the system to kill the pathogen and eliminate the infection.

This process occurs all day long without our knowledge! And the answer is, antibodies! BTW, if you said C to yesterday’s post, you’re correct!

This backbend is a great abdominal strengthener and also engages muscles in the shoulders and chest. As a backbend, it naturally opens the heart chakra in the chest cavity and allows for the expansion of the lungs and diaphragm to take in more oxygen to enliven and energize the body.

Instructions:

1. From Plank Pose lower the body down to the mat (either through Chaturanga OR Knees-Chest-Chin variation) and let the toes point behind you, with the hands beneath the shoulders, gaze to the mat.

2. Keep the chin tucked towards the chest to make sure the neck stays long

3. On an inhale, gently lift the chest from the mat, keeping as little weight as possible in the hands and the legs glued together down alongside the mat

4. Relax the shoulders away from the ears and draw the shoulders blades towards one another in the upper back area.

5. Keep the entire length of the front body below the hips down on the mat

6. Releasing the breath, slowly lower back down to the mat as you engage the abdominal muscles.

7. Repeat several times.

Make sure that the legs stay glued together as you lift up. There should be no weight in the palms of the hands, and you can even float them an inch or two from the mat to ensure there’s no temptation to use them. It’s important to keep the gaze forward and chin tucked slightly down towards the chest to avoid placing strain on the neck.

If you said FALSE, you're correct. Yes, the immune system does protect you from illness, but it cannot protect against large amounts of new pathogens. What it does do is save the information gained during an attack, so the next time you are exposed to that specific pathogen, it can take action.

Plank pose is an amazing overall strengthener as it deals with almost all important muscle groups. It lights up the core muscles, biceps, triceps, and encourages full-body awareness as correct alignment is extremely important to support proper posture, improve balance, and prepare the body for more advanced asanas such as arm-balancing and inversions.

Instructions:

1. From Downward Facing Dog, come to your tip-toes and begin to shift your weight forward until your shoulders come over the wrists.

2. Push out through the backs of the heels while keeping both legs straight.

3. Engage the abdomen and keep the belly strong, tailbone tilted as if to lengthen all the way up to the back of the head.

4. Important not to let the bum sag too low or go too high - aim to keep one straight line from the backs of heels all the way to the back of your head.

5. Keep the gaze low between your hands, and the palms pressed firmly into the mat as the shoulders are drawn down away from your ears.

6. Breathe deep into the belly.

It’s important that the shoulders don’t come too far forward over the wrist as this can cause the hips to sag lower, causing strain on both the lower arms and spinal muscles. Aim to keep one long line of body awareness from the heels to the head - sagging too low or letting the bum hike too high are both counteractive to this pose.

If you are battling from a chronic health condition, realize there just may be hope…

Today there are many common chronic conditions such as thyroid problems, autoimmune disorders, digestive disorders, chronic fatigue, blood sugar problems, chronic pain, anxiety or depression or cardiovascular challenges. If you are feeling like you are at the end of your rope or simply don’t want to get there, then understand that there are effective options that you may not be aware of. But these options do require that you think outside the mainstream box a little.

Many sufferers of chronic conditions have been able to resolve their health challenges with a holistic approach that looks deeper into the underlying factors that brought about your condition. While prescription medication options effectively serve to address the short-term concerns many have found it in the long run to be an incomplete remedy.

Science and technology have advanced to allow physicians to understand health problems at a deeper level rather than temporarily treating the surface symptoms.

Functional medicine is a rapidly growing approach that utilizes this science and technology. It is uniquely effective at getting at the root cause of problems and helping restore health where many medicine-based approaches fall short.
