Twisting cleanse and detox
Added 2021-12-27 14:27:36 +0000 UTCThis sequence of intense twists and leg muscle activation will unblock stagnant energy and clear physical tension. There is a lot of strong work in particular with the urinary bladder and gall bladder meridians, which can tighten due to frustration, impatience, anger, and irritation. The opposite emotions that we’re creating space for are peace, presence, acceptance, and compassion. Postures include simple twists, hamstring stretches, one-legged twists, twisted roots, and sphinx. In each pose, notice the moment when you feel the tight grip of tension begin to release.
Props: strap, optional blankets or cushion
Benefits: tension-release, letting go of anger, self-awareness and presence, outer hips, hamstrings, detoxification, clearing, twists, spine
