Check yoga knowledge every day, standing on one leg has many advantages: preventing senile dementia, exercising body balance, helping to treat hemorrhoids, tonifying the kidney and detoxifying, shaping curves, relieving stress, etc.
Today’s yoga class will give you a detailed explanation of the one-leg standing balance.
Yoga instructor class: Single-leg standing balance Uthita Hasta Padangusthasana Uthita means stretching, Hasta means hand, Padangustha big toe.
Start: Standing in Mountain Style STEP1 with left hand akimbo and eyes on the nose or the ground.
STEP2 Inhale: Bend the right leg, hook the big toe with the right hand, and look at the tip of the nose or the ground.
Exhale: keep still and look at the tip of nose or foot.
STEP3 Inhale: straighten and raise your right leg, look at your toes, and take a few breaths.
Keep your abdomen tight, and you can clearly perceive the expansion of your pelvis, hip joint and the whole body.
The raised right leg, with the thigh root downward, can control the pelvic alignment and balance the left and right sides of the body.
The practice of this pose can stay here for a while, and then go into the following steps.
Common mistakes: STEP4 exhale: grasp the right heel with both hands and look at the toe with eyes.
Inhale: straighten your right leg, straighten your spine, and look at your toes.
Simple method: similarly, if we can’t stretch our thighs well, don’t stretch our calves in a hurry, otherwise the practice of posture will be more difficult.
Whenever we are unable to maintain balance in the asana, resulting in the interruption of practice, we should not rush into the new practice at this time, and adjust our breath first to stabilize our mind.
After exhaling, restart the exercise and slowly and steadily reach the steps you can master.
STEP5 Exhale: put your right leg close to your body, look at the tip of your nose with your eyes, and take a few breaths.
This step is difficult for most people.
Remember not to compare and imitate.
Everyone’s practice is adjusted according to their own physical condition.
I often say that to find their own yoga practice, comparing and imitating are hurting themselves, and they are using their own harm to reflect the superiority of others.
Yoga practice is only suitable for you, so that you can feel comfortable, happy and satisfied in practice.
This is your own yoga.
STEP6 Inhale: stretch your legs forward and look at your toes.
Exhale: put down your right leg, stand back in Mountain Pose, and look at the tip of your nose or the ground.
STEP7 Put your left hand on your waist, and look at the tip of your nose or the ground with your eyes.
Inhale: bend the right leg, hook the index finger, middle finger and thumb of the right hand to the big toe, and look at the tip of the nose or the ground.
Exhale: keep still and look at your toes.
Relevant knowledge points: As mentioned in the previous article, if you want to be healthy, you need to balance the left and right pulse.
What I want to say here is that if we have not balanced the left and right veins and the toxins in them have not been cleaned up, then when we try to awaken Kundahlini or open the chakra, we will guide the subtle toxins into the middle or left and right veins.
When Kundalini enters the left pulse, it will cause wrong imagination, distort emotions, and lose the correct perception of things.
When Kundalini enters the right vein, it will cause anger, self-righteous, critical and selfish, thinking that only they are spiritual.
Such people will have fever, anger and strong internal fire of unknown reasons.
To balance the left and right pulse, first of all, have a detailed understanding of the left and right pulse.
First, right pulse; The four right meridians (Pingala, meaning “red”), which are dominated by the right pulse, branch from the eyebrow wheel (the third eye) to the right nasal cavity (outlet), and dominate the right nasal cavity channel.
Around the midvein.
Pusha (meaning “nourisher”) branches from the eyebrow wheel (third eye) to the right eye (exit).
This pulse is very important.
It is said that the soul (Atman) resides in it when awake.
Meditation is the main method of self-awareness.
Payasvini (meaning “full of justice”) branches from the eyebrow wheel (the third eye) to the right ear (outlet) and dominates the right ear pharyngeal tube.
Yashasvati (meaning “full of glory”), from the submarine wheel to the navel wheel, from the navel wheel, the energy reaches the right foot and the right hand, and then reaches the five toes of the right foot and the five fingers of the right hand.
The end point is big toe and thumb tip.
The right palm has great healing energy.
STEP8 Inhale: straighten and raise your right leg, look at your toes, and keep breathing for several times.
Exhale: grasp the right heel with both hands, and look at the toe with eyes.
Inhale: straighten the spine, arm, right leg, and look at the toes.
Relevant knowledge points: the quadriceps femoris is one of the most powerful muscles in the human body, so here we need the quadriceps femoris to actively lift the leg and extend the knee joint through the quadriceps femoris.
STEP9 Exhale: put your right leg close to your body, look at the tip of your nose with your eyes, and take a few breaths.
End inhalation: straighten the spine, arm, right leg, and look at the toes.
