Beginner Yoga

34m
Combine the powerful control of the breath based in the ancient technique of Ujjayi breathing with an intensive activation of the pelvic floor to unlock the secrets of the inner body. The bandhas are energetic locks that happen when the core muscles of the pelvic floor are alive, activated and strong. The breath is the tool that calms the nervous system and helps translate yoga into substantive life changes.
Use this video to partner with Padmasana, Easy Seated Pose and Pranayama in the Yoga Challenge (Day 24).
