MULTIPLE BENEFITS
The Sun Salutation or Surya Namaskar (Surya meaning ‘sun’ and Namaskar meaning ‘salutation’ in Sanskrit) can be practised as a warmup exercise or on its own. Since this sequence moves the body in all directions, it helps to clear the energy pathways and create balance. Each movement activates most of the chakras, helping to invigorate the body while creating space. Yogis feel energised, balanced and radiant after going through the motions of the sun salutation.
Regular practice of Surya Namaskar can strengthen the back and muscles and help reduce blood sugar levels. It can also help improve metabolism and blood circulation, boost skin radiance and balance hormones. In addition, it increases the heart rate and helps regulate the entire circulatory system, thus helping to eliminate toxins.
MIND, BODY, SPIRIT
The Sun Salutation neatly combines asanas, breathing and chakras stimulation, all of which contribute to heightened physical health, mental clarity, emotional stability and overall vitality.
Nathalie looks forward to saluting the sun with you soon in her yoga classes at the Swiss Club.
