Daily Healing Program, White Rock, BC
Start your day by waking up your body and mind with simple conscious breathing.
For 5 to 10 conscious long, slow breaths lay in savasana (corpse pose with palms up). Being conscious with your body's movements, breath and slowly move your body into a butterfly position (soles together with knees open, one leg at a time). Do this for 2-10 minutes minimum, as you prepare for gentle stretching prior to your day or exercise regime.
Here are some extra pointers:
• Breathing consciously will connect your body and mind;
• Individualized programs that are based on your needs;
(This may only consist of 5-10 stretches depending on your level)
• Asanas (postures) with yin yoga are held for 3-5 minutes;
• Remember that the core does not mean abs. The pelvic floor is activated by squeezing the washroom muscles, perineals, and include the transverse abdominus (TA) and mulitifidus (a spinal muscle). Once the pelvic floor by a simple contraction, the TA contracts by 15%;
• The art and science of back-bending where the spine dictates the flow. (hint: lift the heart or sternum up to open the chest and the low back;
Keep it simple. The goal is to allow the body to adapt to the program. Less is best.
Yoga: (FYI - check out The 5 Tibetan Rites)
