Lovely Yogis,
Slow down and find your inner cool in the middle of summer☀️
It is mid-August, the days are still scorching hot, and nature carries the energy of full blooming and abundance. In this intense heat, both our body and mind need a different kind of care instead of rushing, we need inward focus and cooling down.
Focus a little on your breathing today and try an exercise.
To beat the heat today try: Sitali (Cooling Breath)🥶
1. Sit comfortably with a straight spine
2. Slowly begin to observe your breathing
3. Roll your tongue into a tube shape and stick it out (if you cannot do this genetically, just purse your lips into an "O" shape)
4. Inhale slowly through your rolled tongue or mouth – you will feel a refreshing, cooling airflow
5. Close your mouth and exhale long and softly through your nose
Repeat 10-15 times and watch your nervous system calm down!
6. Deep breath in through your nose and then out
7. Then return to your spontaneous breathing
Do not do:
❌ immediately before and after meals
❌ in case of low blood pressure
❌ in case of respiratory disorders
❌ in winter (cold) or in places with polluted air
How are you coping with today's heat? Do you prefer a dynamic practice early in the morning, or gentle stretches in the evening? Write to me in the comments! 👇
See you soon on the mat!
Namaste🙏
