Mellow Yoga Flow for Beginners

in #dlive7 years ago

It's a grey and mellow day @gardenofeden - perfect for a little yoging!

TBH my flow wasn't that mellow, but my recording device malfunctioned just as things were getting juicy.

Oh well, it's perfectly imperfect as is!

This is a great sesh for a beginner to follow along, so allow me to outline the flow:

  1. Say a prayer/set an intention for your practice
  2. Nauli kriya to engage uddiyana bandha and massage the internal organs (more in an upcoming post)
  3. Sun salutation A X3. Feel free to throw in a backbend when you come up if you feel like it!
  4. 3 legged down dog, hold until you're done, then transition to fallen star
  5. Vinyasa to the other side, repeat 3 legged down dog into fallen star
  6. Vinyasa into child's pose

From there I did a headstand series and a bunch of other stuff that is now lost to the sands of time, so there's no point in reiterating any of it here.

Would you like me to break down these poses for you? Remember that it's all about the breath - every motion is tied to an inhalation or exhalation, and each pose is held for at least 5 breaths.

May your day be yogariffic!

My video is at DLive

Sort:  

@saramiller the video is not playing on my computer. `Wonder if it is the issue with my laptop or issue with the upload.

It's not playing on my device too. May be upload issue or a Dlive issue. :(

Thanks for the heads up.
I'm able to watch it using Safari, Chrome, and Firefox.
I have known DLive to pause and freeze frequently, and I hope that they will continue to improve as a video hosting site!

Wonderful - I also started with yoga and it feels good!

So glad to hear that! Yoga makes everything better <3

Good post! Really very useful

Hope it helps you feel your best!

Very nice dlive video
This lovely health
I appreciate your post.......

thank you for share

You're welcome

I practice yoga, I still can not make that last posture of your video, I only have 4 months, but with perseverance and discipline I will achieve it. It is one of the best things I have decided for my general well-being. Thank you. I wish you much success

Yes with practice you can get it! I suggest trying up against a wall.

Thanks, I will do it.

Yes, please break down the poses. I have always been interested in yoga, but I think I will start now, inspired by you!
