Would you be surprised to learn that lying flat on your back on the floor is a yoga pose?

Well, it is!

The common name for this pose is reclined mountain or corpse pose. Imagine that! A yoga pose that isn’t really odd looking, but the name for it is!

The Sanskrit label for this same pose is Savasana (shah-VAHS-anna) where sava is the word for “corpse.”

This is a restorative pose usually performed at the end of your yoga practice.  Check out the video and it minute 38:39 you will see how you already know and practice this comfortable posture:

Strength and relaxation

Kundalini yoga (KY) is active and powerful.  When practiced regularly (2-3 times per week), it strengthens one’s endurance and perseverance. We have had several students reporting these positive changes.
The exercises in KY will develop strength in you and within you. It will  help you create a routine – a routine that distracts attention from the physical effort and focuses concentration on the mind.
If you continually challenge and maintain your practice, you will feel how your success creates experiences, and the sense of your own value is strengthened.

With the aid of exercise sequences, the muscles of the body are strengthened, the mobility improved, and body awareness trained. The breathing technique is also trained.
The physical exercises are completed with movement and mantra meditations, which stimulate concentration, inner stability, and tranquility.

We will explore more about mantras and meditations in our future Newsletters.

Thank you & Live Blessed!
