Another powerful yoga pose for your practice: Lion's Breath🦁, Simhasana wakes up your face and lightens up your practice.⠀
😋Yesss, stick your tongue out – it’s SO good for you!⠀ 🙄Look up or focus on your third eye chakra in between your eyebrows, 😝 exhale and make a lion's noise!⠀ 😵You can close your eyes to feel less weird until you get used to it - finally, you might love it - so give it a try! 🤣Isn't it great to be a little silly!⠀ ⠀ ❗Extra challenge: Engage the 3 bandhas (Mula, Jalandhara, Uddiyana).⠀ ❗Bonus: I like to use this pose to stretch my wrists as well ⠀ It might look a bit unusual first, but there’s a whole lot of sense and meaning behind it:⠀ ⠀ 💪Relieves tension in the chest and face.⠀ 💪Stimulates and releases a whole range of often overlooked muscles like the front of the neck, jaw, throat. ⠀ 💪The tongue is like a ‘bridge’ between conscious and unconscious.⠀ 💪Activates the diaphragm.⠀ ⠀ 🏡If you are practicing at home - this is the perfect time to try new poses that you might have been avoiding in crowded yoga classes!⠀ |
