Yoga Every Damn Day – As a part of A to Z April Blogging challenge, I am going to post a series of Yoga poses. Don’t worry I will keep it simple and crisp… and try not to make it boring. {All pictures are mine, clicked by my dear husband}
Ustrasana or Camel Pose
As you can see, this pose is a great way to stretch the back. It stretches the front of the body, thighs, gives a deeper backbend, strengthing the back muscles. Be careful not to strain your neck and apply same pressure on both the sides.
Chakravakasana or Sunbird pose
A beautiful pose for Yogis of all level. It strengthens the core and helps in achieving a better balance.
Chaturanga Dandasana
I am still learning to do this pose correctly. This pose makes me realize how weak my arms and elbows are. It’s so tough to maintain a fine balance, parallel to the floor. See how I am struggling 😛
Day 1 – Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog)
Day 2 – Bakasana
I'm sure I have done the first two poses though didn't know their names. However, the last one is indeed extremely challenging! So kudos for at least attempting it…I'm sure you will get much better at it in time Raj! 🙂 <3
thank you so much Elly 😀
These aren't easy as it seems…
the last one kills me 🙂
camel and chakravakasana are my fav poses! 😀 I'm a goner with chaturanga thats why ive now started doing wall push ups to build up the confidence to do the same on the floor and thereby strengthening arms!! but i guess planks shud help with the strengthening too! 😀
that's awesome girl. Keep going 😀
You did them all beautifully..I know Chaturanga is hard and I struggle with Camel pose cos of my back..You are a pro girl!
yeah I would need more Chaturanga practice 🙂 thanks a lot 🙂
Loved the picture on the beach, the asana looks easy but I can't do it. Plank is another difficult one 🙂
thank you so much Sulekkha
Wow! These are seemingly tough asanas but you are doing it with such ease! Great going, Raj! Love the pictures too!
thank you so much Shilpa 😀
Now Chakravakasana is an asana I can do!
😀 it's wonderful asana for balancing as well 🙂
Interesting
I believe Yoga or for the fact any fitness regime you follow turns out to be an addiction..a good one.
all you need is to give it a start 🙂
I agree … I was a lazy bum till last year, but once I started with Yoga, I am always motivated to try new things 🙂
wow.. i can do the chaturanga dandasana.. and i know how tough it was to just to lift my body off the ground. but its good for balancing our weight.
yeah isn't it. I am trying so hard to get it right, Thanks for commenting 🙂
