#embryo pose

Believe it or not, I find Pindasana (Embryo Pose) extremely relaxing and comfortable. It opens the lower back and hips, stimulates the digestive system and calms the mind. Whenever I practice Mysore, I stay in this pose for a couple extra breaths because it feels so heavenly. And should you come to any of my classes on Wednesday or Thursday you may get a chance to experience it too! Times and studios listed below.

Pindasana, or Embryo Pose in Shoulderstand, is the next pose in the Ashtanga finishing sequence after Urdhva Padmasana. In this pose one balances on their shoulders while holding their legs close in lotus. As crazy as this may look, it feels amazing, opening the hips and lower spine as well as strengthening the core. Pindasana also stimulates the abdominal organs which can be helpful with digestive issues. Join me at any or all of my 3 classes on Thursday listed below and you might just find yourself wrapped up in a happy little ball too. 6:30am - @sanghayogashala 9am - Karen Lord Pilates Movement 6:30pm - Sangha Yoga Shala
