Yoga posa para cada parte do seu corpo
One of the beauties of yoga is that many poses work your whole body. Unlike having a “legs day” or “arms day” at the gym, doing a regular yoga practice can easily incorporate your entire anatomy. Even if you pick a body part you want to work on and tailor a practice that way, you’ll still feel the benefits elsewhere.
Este guia irá ajudá-lo a encontrar poses que fortaleçam e/ou abram grandes grupos musculares. Para cada área anatômica, você verá uma lista de poses divididas em níveis de prática iniciantes, intermediários e avançados. Use estes para planeje suas sessões de yoga ou descubra mais sobre as poses que você faz na aula. Seguindo estas estão algumas sequências pré-planejadas que visam aquela área do corpo.

Peito e Ombros
Poses para abrir seu peito e coração centralizar você. Como a abordagem do yoga é holística, há alguma sobreposição entre as dobras traseiras e os alongamentos do ombro. Alongamentos de ombro liberam tensão, o que ajuda a prevenir a dor nas costas e pescoço. Já que os ombros podem ser vulneráveis a lesões, especialmente à medida que envelhece, não exagera.
Esses exercícios no peito podem ser especialmente benéficos se você sentar em uma mesa por longas horas.
