THANK YOU !!


the eagle pose

The Eagle Pose

 is named after Garuda, the mythical eagle, who had the beak and wings of a bird but the body of a man.


Garuda Asana does for the arms and legs what the Spinal Twist does for the spine, twisting and squeezing first one side and then the other, to increase circulation to the limbs.
It is an excellent remedy for varicose veins.
Because the leg that supports your weight is bent, this strengthens your leg muscles.


Squeezing your arms and legs together while maintaining the balance improves circulation and develops an awareness of your extremities,  right up to your fingers and toes.
Hold the pose, breathing deeply, then repeat on the other side, changing arms and legs.
