Strike a pose!




Here I am playing around in Urdhva Danurasana. This is my "go to pose" when I feel a little sluggish the afternoons, as it leaves me feeling rejuvenated.


This backbend opens the front of the hips, works the inner thighs and pelvic floor. It also opens your chest/lungs and improves your breathing.  
All your Chakras are stimulated as your abdomen and back are strengthened.


Backbends increase energy, counteracts depression and are sometimes considered therapeutic for asthma, back pain, infertility, and osteoporosis.
