Yoga Tips to Get Your Revolve Triangle On

I was wondering what to to write or to say that will be inspiring and informative… I figured we would have tons of time to do that…

In the mean time, I want to share some cool yoga tips on how to enhance your yoga poses and make sure you have proper energetic and physical alignment to keep you safe and pain free for years to come.

Over the years and after many teaching hours  I wished more time to break down and practice one pose or more hands to get to everyone… but for now I want to bring different mini videos on “how to” get in certain poses risk and pain free.

My goal is to offer tips on how to check your own alignment in many poses and offer cues to avoid common mistakes so your personal practice soars to the next level.

Let’s start with Revolved Triangle also known as Parivrtta Trikonasana.  I have created a video for it to make it easy for you to follow and avoid common mistakes.

If you would like more information you can reach me at adri@innerbeautyyoga.com or www.innerbeautyyoga.com

Love,

Adri

This pose is one of my favorites for tranquility, peace and opening the heart!

Point the toes like the tail on a fish.

Place hands under buttocks palms down and bring elbows below body. Inhale as you lift your heart to the heavens, bringing the top of the crown of the head onto the mat and look upside down. Use this perspective of a Yogi to see the world in a whole new light. Breathe into the expansion of the heart and chest. Soften the abdomen.

Stay in the post at least 15 breaths to receive maximum benefit, working up to a few minutes.

Using Matsyasana as a regular post in your practice, you will begin to feel the tranquility of a fish, as if moving through cool clear water.

To release, slowly exhale and remove hands out to the sides of the mat lowering the chin and move right into Savasana, final relaxation.

Namaste.
