Some time ago, someone asked backstage: how do yoga teachers replenish qi.
Let’s talk about this today.
Practicing yoga and being a yoga teacher are two different concepts.
Everyone must have heard that it takes a lot of gas for yoga teachers to take yoga classes.
The yoga teacher will make up for the gas consumed in class after class.
How to make it up? Based on the experience accumulated by yoga masters and yoga teachers from generation to generation, choosing the right posture and practicing correctly is the best way for yoga teachers to replenish qi.
Maybe this is what the saying goes: you need to tie the bell to solve the bell.
Today, I’d like to introduce some restorative postures in Iyengar yoga system.
In addition to yoga teachers and ordinary yoga practitioners, if they feel tired or overworked, they can also quickly replenish their vitality and recover their energy by practicing these postures.
Let’s look at the specific actions.
1.
Supine beam angle is almost a must in menstrual yoga and restorative yoga.
Simple action, convenient operation and powerful effect.
That’s it.
When practicing prosthetic postures, it is best to use AIDS.
Assistive devices make you relax, comfortable, safe and stay longer.
Supine beam angle type can put the buttocks on the cushion, raise the back and support the waist; The head and neck are padded high and the chin is slightly, so that the skin on the forehead can flow downward; At the same time, place a towel blanket or yoga brick under the knee, and the soft towel roll is more comfortable.
Hold for 5-10 minutes.
2.
We also practice the inverted arrow against the wall more.
It is especially recommended to practice before going to bed.
The repair effect is also very powerful, but it is not recommended to practice this movement during menstruation.
The commonly used assistive device is to pad up the back, and there is support under the waist and back.
The head and neck area is the same as the upper beam angle, with the forehead slightly higher than the chin.
Hold for 5-10 minutes.
3.
Bridge shoulder handstand is a prosthetic posture that can replace shoulder handstand.
It can also be practiced during menstruation.
Accessories: a long pillow is placed vertically under the body, the shoulders fall to the ground, the chest is opened, and a towel can be placed under the head and neck to make the forehead slightly lower than the chin; Keep your feet as wide as your pelvis and put your feet on a yoga brick or a pillow under your ankles.
The above three prosthetic postures are suitable for everyone.
Even people with zero foundation can practice by themselves.
If they don’t have professional AIDS, they can use blankets and pillows at home instead.
The placement of accessories can also adjust the height according to their own comfort.
Just do four key points: there is support under the waist; The pelvis is flat; Chest opening; The forehead is slightly above the chin.
The following two repair actions are for experienced practitioners or yoga teachers.
If you are a beginner, don’t try them easily, especially semi plow.
4.
The semi plough on the chair will completely relax the abdomen, and all the organs in the chest, abdominal cavity and pelvic cavity can be nourished.
It is called the action of lying down for a year by yoga teachers.
I also like it very much.
It’s very relaxing and healing.
When practicing, you can add a pillow under the shoulder according to the auxiliary method of semi plow.
The pelvis and legs are basically parallel.
If a pillow is added under the shoulder, you should also put a pillow under the legs to raise the legs and keep the hips and thighs almost parallel.
Hold for 5-10 minutes.
5.
The handstand on the wall rope is a very fun pose, which can complete the handstand effect without effort.
Stand inside the wall rope, face the wall, and clamp the wall rope in the sacrum.
Step on the wall with your feet, grasp the rope with your hands, enter the handstand, and do the toe pose with your feet opposite each other.
Be careful not to raise your hips and collapse your waist, so that the pubis and navel are in a straight line.
Hold for 5-10 minutes.
For all prosthetic postures, try to keep them longer, 5 ~ 10 minutes or even longer.
Happy new year.
