🌿Day 7 #wildlove30days yoga challenge 🌿Extended Hand to big toe - Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana One of my all time favourite postures! A beautiful balance that requires strength, flexibility, focus and patience all rolled into one, this posture has taught me a lot about myself, never give up, keep trying, find grace, when you fall out just get back up and start again. From standing, feet hips distance. Find a focus point on the floor or wall. Slowly hug the right knee towards the chest, guide the right fingers underneath the back of the right knee. Using the hand as guidance lift up through the leg and waist. Encouraging the spine and upper body to be tall and structured. To move deeper catch a hold of the right foot with the right hand and gently begin to stand up tall again. This will still open the hip! As you find your balance and the hip opens slowly begin straightening the leg, this takes time and practice so honour those layers you move through each time you come and enjoy this posture. If you have found a spark of space, stillness and silence test yourself and look the opposite direction! Benefits: Any balance brings focus to the mind, discipline. Strengthens legs, ankles and feet. Opens the hips, hamstrings, strengthens the glutes and core. ✨ Take a photo of your posture and share it on Facebook/Instagram with the tag @wildloveyoga #wildlove30days You have the chance to win a x10 FREE CLASS PASS on www.wildloveyoga.com #yogalife #yogalove #yogapractice #yogalive #yogaflow #keeppracticing #loveyoga #vinyasa #meditation #gratitude #yogauk #yogateacher #yogacommunity #yogainspiration #vinyasaflow #yogastrength #yoga #onlineyoga #zoomyoga #yogaclasses #yogabalance #handtobigtoepose #utthitahastapadangusthasana #30dayyogachallenge #wildloveyoga #yogainnature https://www.instagram.com/p/CE2WnfbpKtu/?igshid=r1f2r31o9flb

🌿Day 6 #wildlove30days yoga challenge Cobra pose - Bhujangasana This week we embrace opening our hearts, physically and emotionally. We take time to relax our shoulders, move the body around with expressive postures and learn to unravel fears and boundaries. Here we can enjoy postures like Cobra pose, locust, camel and fish pose to explore our boundaries and move from our protective nature, who knows what’s the other side of your comfort zone. Laying down on your belly, guide your hands beneath the shoulders. See if you can wiggle the length of the belly along the mat to lengthen the waist & release the lower back. Still with the hands beneath the shoulders, spread the fingers. Take an inhale and feel the belly inflate, as you exhale press the shoulders towards the back edge of the mat. This may be sufficient to engage the upper back, variation one, stay here and lift the hands (a little locust variation) or press the hands down, hug the elbows to the lower ribs. On your next inhalation lift through the crown of the head lifting the chest away from the floor. Press little toes towards the mat, slight engagement of the core and tailbone down. Take your time here and try not to over dominate with the hands, use the whole body to experience the expression of the posture. 5-10 long breaths, listening to how you feel and enjoy opening the heart. 🤍 Benefits: Strengthens the back muscles, articulates the spine and creates flexibility. Stretches the belly and massages internal organs, opens heart and lungs, soothes stress and fatigue. ✨ Take a photo of your posture and share it on Facebook/Instagram with the tag @wildlove_yoga #wildlove30days You have the chance to win a x10 FREE CLASS PASS on www.wildloveyoga.com #yogalife #yogalove #yogapractice #yogalive #yogaflow #keeppracticing #loveyoga #vinyasa #meditation #gratitude #yogauk #yogateacher #yogacommunity #yogainspiration #vinyasaflow #yogastrength #yoga #onlineyoga #zoomyoga #yogaclasses #cobrapose #bhujangasana #30dayyogachallenge #wildloveyoga #yogainnature https://www.instagram.com/p/CEz5sJGprgg/?igshid=ieti9nh71e30

DAY 5 #wildlove30days yoga challenge 🌿Downward Facing Dog - Adho Mukha Svanasana Starting in a table top position, spread the fingers wide and allow the collar bones to lengthen. Tuck the toes under and on your next exhalation press the hands into the mat, press through the heels to lift the tail bone towards the ceiling. Pedal through the legs, sway the hips and become aware of the weight of the body moving and being supported by the hands and feet. You may need to wiggle the feet back a little but take your time to find and even surface area and weight distributed in both and hands feet. Lengthen through the spine and extend the head, allowing the ears to align with upper arms, the head can move to work into the shoulders, the knees can have a soft bend if it feels to much on the hamstrings, think of this posture as a strong posture rather than hanging out or sinking through the chest. This is often a resting pose and you'll often see it as a piece of the transition between poses. The heels don't NEED to be on the mat, they will get there in time with practice and patience. Find the sense of suspension within the hips, and enjoy exploring movement anytime. 5 - 10 deep breaths. Benefits: Strengthens the core, arms and legs. Lengthens waist, armpits and leg muscles. Brings a sense of calm to the mind, a pose to reconnect back to the breath and build stamina. ✨ Take a photo of your posture and share it on Facebook/Instagram with the tag @wildloveyoga #wildlove30days You have the chance to win a x10 FREE CLASS PASS on www.wildloveyoga.com #yogalife #yogalove #yogapractice #yogalive #yogaflow #keeppracticing #loveyoga #vinyasa #meditation #gratitude #yogauk #yogateacher #yogacommunity #yogainspiration #vinyasaflow #yogastrength #yoga #onlineyoga #zoomyoga #yogaclasses #downdog #30dayyogachallenge #wildloveyoga #yogainnature https://www.instagram.com/p/CExExQPpf1v/?igshid=rqb4a65cwa6a
