Introduction to lazy yoga for lazy people
Year after year, practicing day after day often causes inexplicable burnout. Whenever this time, a self will say: "If we don't continue to persist, won't all the previous exercises be in vain?" The other self will seize the opportunity to emphasize,"Isn't yoga just to gain spiritual comfort and happiness? Being coerced is not so pleasant." Which self-conclusion would you choose?
If divided according to blood type, strict Type A blood will ignore the subconscious protests and continue to practice because they are perfectionists; Type B who is thoughtful has begun to weigh whether there is an inevitable reverse relationship between gaining happiness and persisting in practice; The fickle Type AB blood may persist in practicing at the beginning and then give up halfway, because at that moment, he feels that happiness is more important; Only the free and easy type O blood didn't have much confusion, because he had already called his friends as soon as possible to ask them to play ball.
In fact, I have a simpler solution: turn on the TV, watch a favorite program, and practice my exclusive creation of "Lazy Yoga"(the reason why these movements are so named because these movements are always facing the face forward. It is convenient to watch TV and gentle, and will not cause too much resistance to the body that doesn't want to practice.).
1. Mountain vertical
1. Sit on the floor with your back straight and take a deep breath.
2. Pull up the left foot board and place it on the right thigh, pull up the right foot board and place it on the left thigh, forming a lotus sitting posture (if you can't fold your legs, you can put one foot on the other thigh, and the other. Pull your feet as far as possible towards the perineum)
3. Inhale, straighten your hands upward, open your palms as much as possible, and open your fingers, but put your thumbs against each other, and stay and take a deep breath.
4. Restore, change sides of your feet and sit cross-legged, and do it again.
2. Egret Bird Style
1. Sit on the floor and breathe deeply.
2. Turn your left foot out, bring your foot closer to your buttocks, bend your right foot, and grab the right foot with both hands.
3. Inhale, lift your right foot, exhale and slowly lift your right foot up, approach your body, straighten your back, and stay for a few seconds to take a deep breath.
4. Restore, change feet and do it once.
3. Knee stand and lateral bending
1. King Kong knelt, took a deep breath, and straightened his back.
2. Inhale, straighten your left foot to the left, exhale, straighten your hands above your head and hold each other.
3. Inhale, slowly bend your upper body to the left side, exhale, and stay and adjust your breathing.
4. Restore, take a deep breath, and change to the other side.
Standing upright can increase perseverance, endurance and attention, strengthen knee joints, promote peripheral blood circulation, prevent endocrine disorders, beautify arm lines, and prevent paralysis and coldness of hands and feet.
The Egret Style helps blood circulation in the lower body, enhances physical strength, eliminates leg swelling, beautifies leg lines, adjusts the pelvis, and prevents physiological period disorders.
Knee-standing lateral bending can eliminate excess fat in the accessory and waist and strengthen the shoulder joint; it can also relieve constipation, lower abdominal pain and diabetes.
In this way, after practicing the three postures, several key parts of the body that need to be moved have been strengthened. Generally speaking, in my own experience, I will start to practice yoga after starting physical activities and desire to practice more difficult movements. Of course, if your favorite program hasn't finished yet and you can't find other actions you can do in front of the TV, it's a good choice to redo it in order! (Internship Editor: Wu Jinyu)
