Favorite Yoga Poses from Summer 2009





So here I am in the Gobi desert in Mongolia, and you might say, I’m doing an excellent “Camel” pose.  Really trying to stay *on* the camel, that is…..

Lotus pose, near one of the demolished Buddhist temples several hours outside the current capital of “UB” Mongolia.

Yoga for Back Pain Relief

Yoga for Back Pain Relief, Chronic or Recurring Back Pain
(shhhh, it’s yoga!)

Relief for Chronic or Recurring Back Pain (shhhh, it’s yoga!)

Instant Stress Eraser The economy is in the dumps. Gas prices continue to shoot upwards.

It’s winter. It used to be vacation time. If only you can take a vacation from stress.

Now you can. Right now while you read this post.

Sit up straight and take a deeper breathe than you normally do. Hold it for a second or two, and let the air out with a sigh. Go ahead. No one will notice.

Now, do it again. Take a deeper breathe than before. Hold it for a moment or two and just… let … it … go.

Most people tend to breathe very shallow in their chest. Shallow breathing promotes stress and tension. Deep breathing melts it away.

In a few minutes of deep breathing, you can actually eliminate all stress and tension, lower your blood pressure, and instantly gain a lot more positive attitude.

My name is Gail Pickens-Barger and I teach yoga Online/In-Person and Classes on YouTube. Forget what you’ve heard about yoga. You do not have to twist yourself into a pretzel to do yoga. It’s for everyone. Whether you are in shape or not.

And the benefits are immediate.

It’s winter so this is the best time to get started eliminating your stress with yoga.
