These are 2 of the first poses I learned when I started yoga. They’re easy and, combined, great for weight loss. Other benefits include: Downward Facing Dog. It decompresses the spine and pumps oxygenated blood throughout your body and brain, thus, stimulating and improving organ function. It relieves back pain, headaches, and fatigue. It reduces swelling in the legs, and increases flexibility, strength, and energy level. It rejuvenates and benefits the entire body. Child’s Pose. It relaxes, lengthens, and strengthens the lower back, shoulders, hips, thighs, and ankles. It increases blood circulation, aids in digestion, releases anxiety, energizes the body, and calms the mind. Again, this is not medical advice. This is something that has worked well for Vanessa and she is simply sharing her vinyasa. Check with your body, your physician, and God for a routine that would work well for you. http://samadhiyogaashram.com/blog/20-health-benefits-of-adho-mukha-svanasana-downward-facing-dog-pose/ https://www.rishikulyogshala.org/top-10-health-benefits-of-balasana-child-pose/ https://www.goodnet.org/articles/8-easy-yoga-poses-big-health-benefits https://www.yogiapproved.com/yoga/7-popular-yoga-poses-and-their-unexpected-benefits/

Studies have shown that yoga is a great way to give your immune system a boost. Along with getting enough sleep and eating healthy, yoga is a great addition to your overall wellness regimen. Antibiotics and over the counter medications may help you recover from certain ailments but they don’t strengthen your immune system. Yoga reduces stress’ reaction in the body, reduces inflammation, strengthens the nervous system, it helps the flow of the lymphatic system which eliminates toxins, aids in digestion and blood circulation, and much more. Yoga is not a substitute for medical treatment but it is good for preventative care and a great way to stay healthy and full of energy. “Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.” 3 Jn 1:2 www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/urban-survival/201802/new-research-how-yoga-boosts-your-immune-system www.artofliving.org/yoga/health-and-wellness/yoga-natural-immunity-booster www.stylecraze.com/articles/yoga-poses www.siddhiyoga.com/yoga-for-immunity www.yogajournal.com/lifestyle/support-your-immune-system/ B E N E F I T S O F Y O G A https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/9-benefits-of-yoga https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/yoga-benefits-beyond-the-mat https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/13-benefits-of-yoga#TOC_TITLE_HDR_3 https://www.webmd.com/balance/guide/the-health-benefits-of-yoga https://osteopathic.org/what-is-osteopathic-medicine/benefits-of-yoga/ 3 John 2 1 Corinthians 6:19-20

* There have been days I've just done Downward Facing Dog and Child's Pose several times. This helped me open and warm up my ankles, knees, hips and shoulders. It's also a good calorie burner. * Poses with my arms outstretched, no matter the direction of my arms, have helped me with posture, to straighten rounded shoulders and slouching. * Sitting for extended periods of time can affect your hamstrings and your back. I found that stretching my back and hamstrings helped me during my sitting-at-a-desk-all-day years. * Twisting poses have not only helped me stretch my back but it has also helped me wring out toxicity, aid in digestion, and trim my midsection.
