#waxingmoonsalutations

Namaste Bitches! 😂 And TGIF! Today for #WaxingMoonSalutations we circle back to Goddess Pose. Practicing Goddess Pose can tone your lower body in no time, while also challenging your balance and focus. If your hips or thighs are tight, this might be a difficult pose at first. With practice and dedication, you will gain more strength and flexibility! Keep the following information in mind when practicing this pose: Step your feet wide enough so your heels rest on the floor. If that is still too wide for your level of flexibility, place a folded yoga mat or folded, firm blanket beneath your heels. Be sure to have a chair or wall nearby for extra support. Be careful of your knees. Do not let your knees bend forward past your toes. Also, don't let them drop inward too much, as that can over-strain your knees and cause injury. Keep your inner thighs externally rotating so your knees stay in line with your toes. Do not bounce your hips up and down. Keep your spine vertical throughout the pose. Lengthen the front of your torso and the sides of your waist. Keep your breath smooth and even throughout the pose. Let your movements be graceful, not jerky. ✨HOSTS: - @tddjpmom - @momwhatsfordinner - @thewovenyogi ✨SPONSORS: - @nourishtheworkshop - @omgoddess.clothing - @krochetkids - @treegchia - @mintandglamour

Good evening! I am cleansing so I am in full cozy mode. Hence the pajamas. I am me 100% of the time. So here I am at my house. TOMORROW for day 8 of #WaxingMoonSalutations we have Malasana stretches the thighs, groin, hips, ankles, and torso. It tones the abdominal muscles and improves the function of the colon to help with elimination. This pose also increases circulation and blood flow in the pelvis, which can help regulate sexual energy. Malasana improves balance, concentration, and focus. Malasana is particularly beneficial for women who are pregnant, as it can later aid in childbirth. ✨HOSTS: - @tddjpmom - @momwhatsfordinner - @thewovenyogi ✨SPONSORS: - @nourishtheworkshop - @omgoddess.clothing - @krochetkids - @treegchia - @mintandglamour  

Good morning radiant yogis! Today we have day 7 of #WaxingMoonSalutations and the post is a low or high lunge. I am showing the low lunge variation, with the knee down. You can raise the knee for a more intermediate/advanced variation. This pose stretches the legs, groin, and hip flexors, while also opening the front torso, chest, and shoulders. It strengthens and tones the thighs, hips, and butt, while the balancing aspect helps to develop flexible stability. Considered a balance pose, backbend, and heart opener, Crescent Lunge helps the front of the body to expand, which increases energy and reduces fatigue. ✨HOSTS: - @tddjpmom - @momwhatsfordinner - @thewovenyogi ✨SPONSORS: - @nourishtheworkshop - @omgoddess.clothing - @krochetkids - @treegchia - @mintandglamour Leggings @disruptive_movement

Triangle or Trikonasana deep stretch for the hamstrings, groins, and hips, Trikonasana also opens the chest and shoulders. It helps relieve lower back pain, stress, and sluggish digestion. This pose strengthens the muscles in the thighs, hips, and back, while toning the knees and ankles. It also stimulates the organs of the torso, improving metabolism. It is known to be therapeutic for anxiety, flat feet, infertility, osteoporosis, and even sciatica. More than just a simple stretch, Trikonasana improves overall balance and stability, both physically and mentally.

Good morning beautiful Yogis! Today is day 4 of #WaxingMoonSalutations and the pose is 5 point star. Star Pose stretches and lengthens the body in all directions at once. It aligns the spine correctly, which helps to improve posture and reduce back and shoulder pain. By opening the chest and underarms, this pose can also help the practitioners become more open to feelings of love, happiness, and delight, as if they were hugging the world. When practiced correctly, Star Pose will utilize every muscle in the body. It strengthens the legs, ankles, abdomen, and back. It can also help reduce the effects of sciatica and flat feet. By providing more space for the lungs and heart, this pose also improves circulation and respiration. Practicing this pose with a steady and smooth breath will help you relieve stress and improve concentration. ✨HOSTS: - @tddjpmom - @momwhatsfordinner - @thewovenyogi ✨SPONSORS: - @nourishtheworkshop - @omgoddess.clothing my tank - @krochetkids - my hat - @treegchia - @mintandglamour - my mala Leggings by @disruptive_movement
