Nadi Shodan Breathing
(Remember to Breathe)
So what is helping you feel and live better? The answer is life force. Almost all styles of hatha yoga and pranayama increase the flow of prana, or life force, in your body.

Yoga Meditation 4221 Holistic Yoga Again Attracting Followers
The ancient Indian practice of yoga first arrived in the US at the beginning of the 20th century, but didn't really catch on until 1969 with chants at Woodstock. Now, after being overshadowed by the aerobics craze in the '80s and early '90s, yoga is once again attracting followers, with many looking for relief from ailments and injuries or from the stress of daily life.
Baby boomers, worn out from years of jogging and bouncy workouts, are back on board. But interest is growing with other age groups, too, from college students to senior citizens to celebrities.
The surge in interest is being fueled partly by doctors' growing acceptance of yoga's healing potential. Mainstream medicine has adopted yoga as a gentle therapeutic method for treating a number of illnesses, so more and more doctors are referring their patients to yoga. Initial trials have shown yoga can help people with many ailments such as arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, asthma and cardiac risk factors and much more.

Isokinetics Ball Chairs are the same chairs sold by others, only at a manufacturer direct price. No middleman means no need to pay more! And, we provide all of our chairs with a 1 year guarantee. As an additional bonus, we provide an exclusive exercise ball measuring tape that takes the guesswork out of inflating your ball. Sitting on an exercise ball while at home or work promotes flexibility, coordination, motor skills, core strengthening, and balance. Your body, when positioned on top of an exercise ball, is constantly making small adjustments, often imperceptible, to remain balanced and thus is constantly exercising a large group of muscles in doing so. By strengthening your body's core muscle group you help improve your posture, have better balance and guard against back injuries. It may take time before your body becomes accustom to sitting on an exercise ball, since your core muscles may not have gotten much exercise previously. Start by using it 10 to 15 minutes a day and gradually work your way up. If you have had back problems or injuries, make sure to consult your physician or therapist first. Note: We provide a small, starter pump for free for you to have a way to inflate your ball. However, exercise balls require a lot of air and it will take a lot of pumping with the free pump. So, you may want to consider purchasing at this time a high volume air pump, especially if you use exercise balls a lot or have other things you often inflate, like pool toys or air mattresses.

Yoga Meditation 4221 Holistic Yoga - Holistic yoga | No dig garden

This image was taken in front of our no dig garden. You can probably make out the passion fruit vine, miniature capsicums, basil and marigolds. There's papaya, chillies (super hot) rocket, bok choy, tomatoes, basil, peppermint, rosemary & thai ginger (yummy)
We are lazy gardeners and find that this is manageable for us.
What we learnt
* Different postures unlock prana in different ways. Forward bends, for example, increase the types of prana that calm, soothe, and ground; backbends unblock pranic forces that are more expansive and revitalizing.

Yoga Meditation 4221 Holistic Yoga - Green smoothie recipe
Hmmm... how to get this blog indexed?
Yoga Homework... will do some today :-)
Green smoothie pre-breakfast. I will have to find time to write my recipes down and get a book together. Green Smoothies are so excellent, taste good and deliver so many live enzymes to the body.
Here's a recipe if you would like to try one:
Green Smoothie recipe
Equipment:
Blender
Cutting board and sharp knife
green leafy veges
Apple or Pineapple Juice
A little water and ice
1 banana
1 apple
-------------
This morning I picked 6 large green leaves (silver beet, or chard)out of the garden, a few stalks of parsley
1 stalk of celery
a couple rocket leaves (mild tasting, not too strong flavour)
a tiny sliver of super hot chilli
-------------
Wash,chop fine (so it's not too much strain on your blender)
Toss everything into blender with a small tray of ice and 1 cup of pineapple juice (vary according to taste)
Blend until there are only tiny green particles visible whizzing around. Takes my very inexpensive blender 2-3 minutes.
That's it. Very quick, easy and packed full of easy to digest nutrition.
Enjoy
What we learnt
* The truth is that much of the yoga being practiced these days doesn't do as much for the parasympathetic nervous system as you might think. To build your parasympathetic nervous system, you need to do poses that encourage deep relaxation, such as forward bends and hip openers; do fewer standing poses; and do more sitting, supine, and prone postures as well as inversions.

Yoga Meditation 4221 Holistic Yoga - Parasympathetic nervous system
O... dear. How easy it is to get distracted. Perfectly good intentions mind, but somehow the days have passed so quickly and without any yoga study done at all. Dreadful.
I'm making a mental note to myself right this moment, I HAVE to get it together, sides I don't really want to embarrass myself pfft ... we have a ton of homework and more demo's to do... ooopppsss..!
Get moving ...! and get into it. Hmmmm tomorrow?
A side note. The garden is producing the best greens, and paw paws. The paw paws or you might be more familiar with the term papayas. So, amazingly sweet, could have eaten the skin and all. All organic and planted in a no dig garden. Will post some pics at some point.

* The parasympathetic nervous system counteracts many stress-related symptoms and the negative by-products of our modern, fast-paced, high-output lives. It also normalizes your blood pressure and lowers your heart rate.
