Iyengar Yoga Seated Poses

Stabilize, Revitalize & Restore

Today’s class is a combination sequence to be done at any time.

You will feel more extension in your twists, and your forward bends. More availability of the breath to energize, bringing oxygen into the cells, and stimulation into the spinal back body. The organic bodies of the liver, kidney’s and intestines will be activated, rinsed, and released from stored toxins.

You will feel restored energetically, your mind and your nervous system will be rested and rejuvenated. These actions will bring you back to your breath, feeling the depth, width, and space while you experience the movement of energy and the importance of its influence over us.
