Pose of the day~ "NATARAJASANA"-Lord of the dance pose

~Pose of the day~ "NATARAJASANA"

Also known as the Lord of the Dance Pose, the Natarajasana’s primary influence is the mighty Hindu God, Shiva.

Hailed as the Lord of Dance in Hindu mythology, this particular asana should be performed with grace, one of the essential requirements of dance.

When done gracefully, the Natarajasana has many health benefits to offer, both physical and mental.

-How to Go About It-

~Stand straight, and keep your arms by your side.
~Inhale, and bend your right leg in a backward motion and reach out to grab its ankle with the right hand.
~Pull up your right leg as much as you can without straining or using excessive force.
~Stretch your left arm forward and hold the position for a minimum of 20 seconds.
~Keep your breathing steady, and once you are done, bring your body back to the original stance.
~You can repeat the asana with the left leg as well.

Ancient yoga -yoga tours india

In classical, traditional Yoga, as understood through a study of the Vedas, the Upanishads, the YOGA VASHISTHA, THE BHAGAVAD GITA AND THE YOGA SUTRAS, very little emphasis was placed upon the physical practices. . About 500 A.D. the emphasis of spirituality and Yoga started to shift more and more to physical practices and techniques in keeping with the materialistic, sensual, body-oriented nature of mankind in Kali Yuga. #yogabooks #hathayoga #classicalyoga #worldofyoga #yogapractice #yogaasana #yogainspiration #yogi #ancientyoga #vedas #yogaphilosophy #igyogacommunity #juruyoga #awareness #yogateacher #namaste #indiayoga #yogisofinstagram #bhagavadgita #yogadaily www.yogatoursindia.in

The Lotus Mudra

The Lotus Mudra opens the heart chakra and is a symbol of purity. A lotus flower sits on the surface of the pond, opening to the sun as its roots remain deeply embedded into the muddy bottom, holding it firm and strong. It is the symbol of light and beauty emerging from the darkness. The benefits of lotus mudra include: ~Purifies the body ~Relaxes and stabilizes the mind ~Treats ulcers and fevers ~Creates a more loving attitude toward others . . #mudras #lotus #lotus_mudra #light #beautiful #love #heart #chakras #yoga #yoga #peace #yogalife #yogastudy #yogi
