Can you tell the difference? -
-

The difference between each of these #urdhvamukhasvanasana or #upwardfacingdog is subtle, yet makes a great difference to the body.
Keen to know more...read on.-
-

The top pics have my shoulders hunching and in front of my wrist, when ideally the shoulder must be in line with the wrists, moving backwards, opening up the heart space, as well as depressing down.
-

By using the blocks, you can use 2 thick books, the arms get lengthened, creating more length in the spine to help facilitate the retraction of the shoulder blades.-
-

This way we do not create stress in the lumbar spine/low back and let it take the brunt of the bend, which you can see happen in the top pics without the block, where the feet are inactive too.-
-

Getting the basics down is key to building a strong foundation for your yoga practice.-

Give Up or Get Up, life is about that one choice.-
-

Instead of reaching for the snacks or chocolate next time you are feeling low or stressed- MOVE YOUR BODY!!.
-

#movementismedicine , Just 20 minutes of exercise can act as an anti-inflammatory by stimulating the immune system. -
-

You don't need to become an obsessive exerciser to use movement as your medicine. Try mini goals like taking the stairs, stretching, spot jogging, dancing, walking...easy things we can do considering our current pandemic situation.-
-

Comment below with how you self-soothe when you are stressed or feeling low. -
-

Love to all those feeling depressed and anxious today.♥️-

We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves - Dalai Lama.
-

Today being Dalai Lana's birthday, I remembered reading this, which has stuck in my head. To make inner peace with ourselves, acceptance is the key. Accepting ourselves with all our weaknesses, letting go of all the doubts and most importantly, really loving ourselves for who we are. ...a few steps towards reconciliation.
-

Happy Birthday Dalai Lama and thank you for teaching us about consciousness, compassion, karma , meditation and much more.
-

Thank you my lovelies ♥️

Whose joining me for a date? 😁-
-

Satisfy your #sugarcravings with nutrient rich fresh dates that have lower glycemic index than the dried ones, meaning that they have a much milder impact on blood sugar levels, so they make a great healthy snack for weight watchers too. -
-

Dates are high in fibre , iron and contain a brain booster Vit B : choline.-
-

So go grab your sweet date...one that you can never go wrong with!! 😅-

Give yourself a little hug today.🙆-
-

It doesn't matter in what kind of form or shape. But take a moment to appreciate that magnificent machine - our body that is carrying us through this life.-
-

No matter what your going through or how tough these times have been, give a big HUG to yourself , SMILE 🤗 and trust that everything is going to be well. -
-

#uttanasana is a great posture for depression.If held for longer, it will also leave you feeling #calm and cool, the eyes start to glow, and the mind feels at peace..

Nourishing and moisturizing home made scrub for some TLC for myself.✨-
-

What better way to use the shavings from #homegrown coconuts, instead of throwing it out, to #pamperyourself in the shower....tra- lala, lala😇-
-

Used the coconut milk for a curry and the leftover shavings I used as a scrub, that left my body silky soft!! It really does. I feel like a baby!! 😄🙅-
-

You can add any natural oils like sweet almond oil or jojoba oil or add some crushed almonds and mint leaves that are also great for the skin.-
-

A must try!! It's easy, affordable and way better than some of those harsh scrubs available in the market.-
-

What's your weekend pampering routine?-

CHATURANGA DANDASANA, discomfort in comfort 🙈 😁-
-

Love it or hate it, but I think that #chaturanga remains one of the most challenging postures of the #suryanamaskar.-
-

There are many ways to modify this posture, besides the one I have shown, but this is a good one to feel the core and legs engagement while breaking the law of gravity.😎-
-

Save, Practice and tag a chaturanga lover😅

Top secret 😷 to prevent injuries...read on?!-
-

Small but effective movements like this can make a difference in preventing you from injury.-
-

So how's that?-
-

Firstly it helps create better active range of motion and secondly, it helps prepare the body for those incidences that 'just happen'.-
-

It's like when you pulling your bag from the conveyor belt or lifting up your baby and whoa!! suddenly your back goes out.-
-

This is why I love #yoga and #pilates. Yoga helps you lengthen and loosen the body and Pilates strengthens the core, offers balance, through slow intentional movements .-
-

Tip
Go slow and controlled and you should feel a nice stretch in the bottom leg, while your #core and outer hip is on fire🔥. Do 10 on each leg. 1-2 sets.-
-

Save and tag your friends, as we all need to prevent injury .

Some hips love 💓 on this #tuesday afternoon. I needed to open up the hips and loosen up emotionally too after a hectic weekend with #internationalyogaday virtual workshops and webinars.-
-

How did you celebrate your #internationalyogaday2020? -
-

Thank you everyone who showed up and contributed towards the well being of abandoned and injured animals @probablyparadise . Feeling all sorts of warm and fuzzy from your love and energy.🙅-

Find a beautiful place and get lost and also do some fun yoga pics 🙅 with @awesomenessmagnet.-
-

For the first time I went Lake side camping, that too staying in a tent OMG !! and knowing only one person really well in the group. But I had such a lovely and adventurous time and overnight we became this gang who were playing outdoor games, kayaking, swimming, as if we knew each other for a long time.-
-

This trip taught me that it is important to explore the unknown without fear and #getoutofyourcomfortzone and be adventurous 😁. Thank you my camping buddies.
-

Stepping outside one's comfort zone is an important, and almost universal, factor in personal growth.-
-

How many of you have stepped out of your comfort zone and done something CRAZY...would love to hear that .-
