The Ultimate Practice for Happy Hips!
Water always finds a way, flowing around and through things. It's what connects us and nourishes us.
In today's Mandala flow we are focusing on the element of Water. We will be targeting the hips, and trying to flow, uninterrupted. This power yoga sequence will have you moving fluidly around your mat, increasing your flexibility and range of motion in your hips.
This practice it's great to relieve stress, build strength, and tone up. It's also a great practice to do if you're feeling angry or anxious as it taps into our sacral chakra, Swadhishthana and can leave you feeling calm and relaxed.
This chakra is represented by the color orange, and the element of Water. It is what makes us feel, it impacts our emotions, passion, and creativity. It's also indicative of our need to feel connected.
So why is it important. As humans our emotions and feelings are always changing. Life happens, and we must be prepared to face it. By having a regular yoga practice, and taking time to work through your chakras we can bring ourselves back into balance.
You've probably felt it before.... you walk into a yoga class, stressed, worried, and overwhelmed and by the time you leave you feel relaxed, refreshed and ready to conquer the day. That's what yoga can do. Help us find peace and grace in stressful situations.
If you want to learn more about chakras there is a great book you can read, Eastern Body Western Mind, that will give you everything you'd ever want to know and more about the chakra system. It's a big book, but a great read.
Hope you enjoy this flow!
