Combine asana with the expansion of the breath and conscious relaxation and discover the many benefits of asanas for body, mind, and soul.
Become mobile – feel younger: The mobilisation of joints through asanas can be felt especially in the hip and shoulder girdle. Asanas are a blessing for the spine as your back develops both muscle length and muscle strength. They alleviate tension especially in the lumbar and cervical area. As the postural alignment improves, you will enjoy tension-free sitting, standing, and walking.
Friendly support from gravity: Inverted poses such as headstand and shoulder stand induce a relaxed cardiac workout. Local blood circulation is stimulated by the pressure between the mat and the body. The abdominal organs and the endocrine glands also benefit from this self-massage.
Take charge of your nervous system: Pose, counterpose and relaxation help to balance both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system in daily life: you learn to be active and relaxed at the same time. Relaxation reduces unnecessary energy expenditure and builds up vital energy. Each asana requires muscle contraction through motor control; this muscle stretching is a sensory stimulation which deepens your body awareness.
