Simple yoga confidence comes from beauty

Yoga is not really complicated. General physical exercise often focuses on the external beauty, but rarely takes into account the internal things. Yoga is different. While sculpting your external image, it also gives you a kind of power from your heart. After a period of exercise from the inside out, you will be surprised to find that your mentality has changed. You will no longer torture yourself to lose a few kilograms of weight. You will be beautiful because of happiness and happy because of beauty.

Classic 6 yoga styles

Here are the six classic yoga movements. Practicing them on the floor at home can help you eliminate stress, maintain a calm heart, make you more flexible and have a better balance, and are also the secret weapon to keep slim.

1. Tree posture:

Keep your feet together, starting in a mountain position, with your toes fully open and extend, and use your front thigh muscles to move the muscles near the knee joint. Straighten your spine and straighten your chest and shoulders. Put your hands together in a prayer position, with your thumbs close to your chest and your elbows bent close to your body. Then lift your left foot and press it tightly against the inside of your right leg (use your hand to help if necessary) to maintain balance. Make sure your right leg remains upright for 5 breaths. If your flexibility and flexibility are poor, you can place your left foot on your calf or ankle joint. You are like a tree, rooted on the earth and breathing deeply.

2. Crescent shape:

Starting in the tree position, take a big step back with your left foot, lift your heel, straighten your legs, bend your right knee in a straight line, raise your arms up, close your hands, press down on your shoulders and back, and maintain 5 breaths.

If you don't think yoga is a real exercise, give it a try! Your thighs will tell you how it feels.

3. Samurai Form:

Starting from the crescent shape, place your left foot flat, turn your toes 30 degrees, keep your legs straight, and turn your hips 90 degrees. Keep your right heel in line with your left instep, keep your knees at 90 degrees, relax your hips, body and shoulders, center, extend your arms flat, shoulder height, and palms down. Stretch out your fingertips as hard as if touching a wall. Focus your eyes on the middle finger of your right hand and hold for 5 breaths.

The name says it all: you are a very powerful warrior.

4. T shape:

Starting in a samurai posture, place your hands on your hips, lean your upper body straight forward, lift your left foot to find balance, then your upper body fully forward, lifting your left leg until your body is parallel to your left leg. Extend your left leg fully, from your hip to your toes. Keep your hips straight and face towards the floor. Stretch your arms at your sides, palms facing inward, and hold for 5 breaths. If the move is too difficult for you, you can rest your legs on a chair at the beginning.

This is a very challenging change, and you will gradually realize that you can do everything you can now.

5. Half of the Moon:

Starting from the T-shape, touch the floor with the fingertips of your right hand (if you can't touch the floor, you can pad something such as a book) and transfer the weight to your right hand and right leg. Leave your left foot off the floor, rotate your left shoulder, keep your hips and left leg parallel to the ground, and to maintain better balance, look up and hold for 5 breaths. At the end, turn your torso and hips forward to restore the mountain posture.

Half the moon teaches you to calm down, and starting to do it now can consolidate other movements.

6. Triangle:

Starting from the mountain posture, step back with your right foot twice, turn to the right foot and make a 90-degree angle to the outside of the leg, leave your left foot forward, with the leg as the center of the center, turn your hips forward, and your right heel and the back of your left foot are in line. Arms up and palms down. Stretch your legs (if you can't, bend your knees 90 degrees), lengthen your trunk and arms, and breathe in. Place the other hand on the shin, knuckle or floor, and keep your left and right arms in a straight line. Look up and hold for 5 breaths. Return to your original position and start again on the other side.

This action makes you feel like you are lengthening, growing taller, and fully stretching your body. (Internship Editor: Tong Wenchong)
