What is your favourite techinque???

This is my favourite technique in yoga.

Stand straight with both feet close to each other. Both hands drop on the sides. Normal breathing. Hands in praying position close to the chest. Breath in and bring them both up above the head, interlock fingers. Bend backwards a little. Breath out. Bring both hands on the floor with both feet in the middle. Right foot backward, left foot bended, then bring left foot at the back with both ankles lifted. Both knees drop on the floor, move both arms forward, touching chest on both knees and forehead touching the floor(baby position). Lift your head and move forward with chin touching the floor in between both arms while bum out. Now drop both knees and tummy flat on the floor. Push up (cobra position), face towards the center with both hands pushing the weight up. Two feet up toes touching the floor. Bring right foot to the front whilst both hands still flat on the floor, then the left foot. Bring both hands up with interlock fingers, bend a little backwards. Breath in. Drop both hands on the sides. Breath out. Rotate both shoulders towards 3 x. Relax. Then repeat.

Are you more on meditation yoga Tawi2? you stayed for half an hour in one position.. At first i thought i wouldn't like yoga for i find it very slow. I used to attend aerobics, pilates, kickboxing then gym (cosmic cycling and various classes) which i consider more strenuous.
I just learned that yoga is good for the mind and body and for curiousity i enrolled which i am now enjoying. No, i'm not practicing for the 2012 olympics Tawi2, just for leisure...

Perhaps it depends on the kind of joke you made on her. If she is just "tampo" or "pikon" then it means it is not that serious bec if it is, then she may be mad already.

immortal

immortal? how is it related to yoga?..
i can't comprehend....

Another technique..This is good for the spinal..

Sit on the floor with both legs straightened forward. Make sure you sit up straight. Chin up, spinal straight and relax not stiff. Normal breathing (don't hold your breath). Bend left leg and place it under the right thigh. Ankle touching the bum. Now fold right leg and place it on your left side. Left arms on top of the right leg. Left elbow on top of right knee. Right arms at the back facing outward. Face forward. Breath in. Hold your breath for a minute. Then twist. Look behind you. Then breath out. Stay there for at least 2 mins.

Repeat. Reverse..

There are also many psychological benefits produced by yoga. It has been known to help with obsessive-compulsive disorders. It reduces stress,
anxiety, depression and tension. It increases a feeling of well-being. Most people will experience a positive outlook on life and feel invigorated. They
will have higher energy levels and will have a better knowledge of themselves and be more self-aware. Improved memory, attention and concentration, as well as, social skills and self-acceptance are also benefits of this exercise.

[bornatbirth]

i like the missionary position,its best performed naked and with someone else also lots of practice can really help your technique and help your breathing too?

I'll probably just stick to aerobics or gym.....

Hi Sophie,
You can ask your doctor about it. I guess yoga is more lighter compared to doing aerobics or using the exercise machines in the gym. In yoga you're not lifting any heavy equipments unlike in the gym. As i've said in my first post at first i thought i will be bored bec i find it very slow. So if you have back problems then this is good ( i suppose) as it is done slowly...and not perspiring..but some other days of the week i do the treadmill, bike if i want to perspire, lift weights (5 lbs -15lbs max).

yeah i'm planning to have it checked iye....
i think it's more the yoga bending and twisting that i cannot handle, it really hurts my back....
in the gym, i can avoid heavy weights so i can manage better....
but maybe i can give yoga a try, it might even be good for me, we'll never know

Yeah i know what you mean Sophie, there are many techniques that really squeezes your body and the spinal. Some has to bring both legs up in the air whilst holding both knees at the back which is really hard but gradually you can. Every step is done slowly so if we can't handle it we stop to a certain point.
