Day 23 #MayIBeginYoga2016. Learn to love your body through the practice. So many people think that they don't have the right body to do yoga. But really the perfect body is the one you have. Today's pose is Ardha Matysendrasana, Lord of the Half Fishes Pose. By twisting and folding the digestive system, toxins and impurities contained within are removed. Deep twisting postures are often used in the Ashtanga Yoga system to literally twist into your center so that the core strength is actively engaged, helping the spine find stability after deep back bending. ?
.

While Ardha Matsyendrasana comes in the Ashtanga Yoga Intermediate Series, it helps reset the spine after the deep backbends and can relieve stress, improve digestion and release the shoulders. It is not a resting or relaxation posture, instead the deep work contained within the twist equalizes the back muscles and neutralizes any stress placed on the intra-vertebral discs. There are many different levels to Ardha Matysendrasana, so be sure to stop at the place where you find your challenge. Remember that yoga is a journey, not a destination and never judge yourself for how well your body makes a certain shape.?
