6 vinyasa yoga moves to align body and mind

How long have you been standing in the same position or stopped stretching today? Whether for those who have a more hectic routine or even less activities, there is no way around it, the body easily gets used to the lack of movement and the answer comes in the form of stiff and, consequently, sore muscles. In addition, it is known that mental conditions also influence our physical condition.

Thinking about it, the #CLAUDIAIndica bring the yoga teacher Tayla Candido to share 6 asanas (movements) of the Vinyasa style, which can be the gateway to the long-awaited balance between body and mind. Similar to a choreography, the sequence of exercises has a short period of permanence, making the practice more fluid and rhythmic.

Watch the teacher’s video and follow the instructions she gives to practice at home:

1 – Pose of the cat and the cow: As you inhale, raise your head. When it’s time to exhale, I do the opposite movement and direct my chin towards my chest. Take 5 to 6 breaths.

2- Dog looking down: Step your hands forward a foot, anchoring the four corners of your hand to the mat, push down on the floor and bring your armpits inward. Still pushing against the floor, raise your hips and bend your knees. Take 5 to 6 breaths.

3 – Warrior II: Inhale and lift your right leg. Then, when raising the body into stance, the right foot should be positioned forward and the knee in line with the heel and left foot.

4- Knee, Chest and Chin: Starting from a plank, bend your knees and carefully bring them to the floor. With your elbows bent, rest your chest and chin on the floor. Elbows projecting upwards and the instep on the mat, slowly straighten the legs to enter the next asana…

5- Snake: With your hands open at your sides, chest height, push down on the ground as you lift your torso. Keep your elbows bent, keep your shoulders away from your ears and your thighs off the floor.

6- Child’s Posture: Sit back on your heels, stretching your arms out in front of you with your elbows off the floor.

In times of isolation, you don’t charge so much to be productive
