On the way of yoga, you either focus on yoga or focus on yoga classes.
You often hear the teacher say that the chest is lifted.
Where does this power come from? Today we take camel pose as an example.
Camel pose when you do camel pose, you need a synergy of internal and external forces.
If you lack confidence or strength to bend back, you may squeeze your lumbar spine and cervical spine.
The first step to solve this problem is to coordinate your breathing, which can control and guide the flow of energy.
If your inner strength is not enough, you will lack confidence in doing this pose.
Each of us is full of energy, but not everyone’s is activated or felt.
Conscious breathing helps you activate your inner energy and helps you stabilize in asana.
Like a balloon, if it is filled with water (energy), it will be full.
Water (energy) gives external form and form.
When your body is full of Qi (energy), it expands to the pelvis, waist, abdomen, lower back, chest and back.
When the thorax expands and the spine extends, you can safely bend back.
Exhalation can give asanas a lot of help.
If your body is tense before you enter asana, it is possible that your lower ribs protrude.
Exhale several times first to make the back and chest soft, and let the lower ribs and internal organs find the back of the body.
When you begin to exhale completely, feel the contraction of your abdomen.
At this time, what you do is right.
You can keep the extension of your lower back and lift your chest when doing back bending.
In order to have more support in this pose, activate the rear thigh and hip muscles, let the tailbone down, stabilize the sacrum and support the lower back.
Sometimes it will push the thigh too forward.
With awareness, activate the muscles in the front of the thigh to stabilize and perpendicular to the ground.
The thighs are vertical to the ground.
