Vinyasa Yoga for Spinal Health

Vinyasa Yoga for Spinal Health

Wrist Friendly – Inversion Free Opt

This Wrist Friendly, Inversion Free Opt. Vinyasa Yoga Flow
connects the breath with the movement to find strength, flexibility, and mobility
to maximize the flow of spinal fluid for optimal cleansing.


Did you know our breath helps move the spinal fluid?

Yep,
an inhale delivers the flow of fluid that bathes the human brain for a good cleansing.
When you exhale, the waste that piles up in your brain is washed away creating better health.

Pretty cool, huh?

Fuller, more intentional breathing is what helps clear the toxins out.
Shallow, short breaths don’t do as much as far as cleansing goes.

“Deep breathing has a greater impact on the flow of brain fluid than short, shallow breathing”,

Vegard Vinje, a PhD candidate at the Simula Research Laboratory.

In addition, moving our spines regularly gives us greater range of motion, better posture, a stronger core, AND lessens your chances of back pain.

Bonus!!

Now imagine how blissful combining the cleansing breath with the movement would be…

In this practice, you’ll get everything listed PLUS very intentional breath movement-coordination to assist in the cleansing process.
🌟 This is why yoga makes us feel pretty darn good. 🌟


Details:

I’ll be performing this practice Inversion Free but you do you.
👉 Props needed IF you’re wrist-free or Inversion Free.
🌟 Good for ALL Levels.
✨ Inversion Free means no downward facing dog, no head stand, no poses where the head goes below the heart. Great for those with glaucoma, cardiac issues, vertigo, acid re-flux, or if you just don’t like going upside down.
🖐 Wrist Friendly means little or no pressure on the wrists but gripping and grabbing are possible.


Enjoy! Be well. 
Remember to breathe.

Inversion Free Opt. & Wrist Friendly

Need to warm up or cool down?
Or maybe you need a refresh for your body to get your focus back…
Or maybe you’re just feeling like a gentle, self-love stretch session…

I hear ya!

I don’t know about you but my back and hamstrings are almost always in dire need of
some self-love stretching.
These simple but effective stretches incorporate these areas perfectly without too much effort
PLUS
10 minutes is a sweet spot for stretching;
It’s just enough time to provide a gentle opening.

🖐 Wrist Friendly ?? There are no poses where there’s a lot of weight on the wrists, however, there is gripping and grabbing. So if you have tender wrists or hands, be gentle with them.

✨ Inversion Free ?? If you are inversion free — make sure when we lie down, that you prop so your head is the highest point as I did not perform this practice that way.


DETAILS:

👉 No props needed, unless you want ‘em.
🌟 Good for ALL Levels.
✨ Inversion Free means no downward facing dog, no head stand, no poses where the head goes below the heart. Great for those with glaucoma, cardiac issues, vertigo, acid reflux, or if you just don’t like going upside down.
