Hi Everyone,

I hope everyone has enjoyed the slight reprieve from the bitter cold. The change in weather has definitely gotten me up and about, rededicating myself to my yoga practice & workouts. But sometimes I have a tendency to get caught up in my excitement & overexert myself. The result? Doing too much, too fast, causing body exhaustion & possible injury. Before that happens, I had to remind myself to take a step back & listen to my body. As I listened, I remembered my resolve to take things slow & one step at a time. With that in mind, I started to think of one of the most fundamentals poses in yoga, Bhujangasana or Cobra Pose. As many of you know, cobra pose has been a staple throughout my classes. This is a great pose to help warm up & strengthen the entire body. Not only does this pose strengthen the spine, arm & shoulders, it also stretches the chest, lungs, shoulders, & abdomen, while firming the buttocks. It also increases flexibility of the spine, deceases stiffness of the lower back & can improve menstrual irregularities & sooth sciatica. Cobra also opens the chest to help clear the passages of the heart & lungs that can help the symptoms of asthma, while improving circulation of the blood & oxygen, invigorating the heart. It can also stimulate the organs in the abdomen & kidneys, helping to improve digestion, while helping to relieve stress & fatigue. So join me this week as we glide our bodies forward & concentrate on the movement of the spine.
