Grab your yoga chair (or suitable alternative), a bolster (or foam pads) and join me with a couple of chair twists to unravel tension.
Bharadvajrasana and Marichyasana using a chair is a simple yet effective way to re-balance the postural muscles of the back and gentle tone and release the abdominal muscles.
Enjoy!
Love and light,

A perfect start to a morning.
Release your muscles , unwind your mind.
Gently follow this simple sun salute, bend your legs if you want , step or jump to transition, it’s up to you.
Listen, focus move.
Enjoy!
The Peacock pose, forearm balance, had me foxed for years.
As I started to think about the name of the pose and consider a peacocks trait’s (my arms are explaining the way the peacock opens up it’s tail feathers in the title picture), it got my imagination rolling and I was off.
I believe that it’s not about the perfect pose, it is about the correct approach, physically and mentally.
Precautions and contra-indications;
as with all inversions, please avoid during menstruation or if the pose causes pressure in the head, ears or eyes. If you have; back, shoulder, or neck injury.
A heart condition or high blood pressure.
Migraine or head-ache.
Most importantly as with any yoga practice, listen to your own body, be kind and sensitive to your bodies needs.
