A Remedy for the Hustle and Bustle of the Season
Submitted by Tracey Silverman, certified Forrest Yoga Teacher at Austin Kula Yoga located in the heart of Tarrytown The holidays are a time of joy, family and friends, and for many of us, a whirlwind of hectic and stress. Stress finds its way into the body, showing up as tension, knots and pain in the jaw, neck and upper back, among other places. Learn how to unravel and release the tightness from your body using Forrest Yoga. Forrest Yoga is a therapeutic yoga practice designed by Ana Forrest for our modern lifestyle and demands. Try this right now. Sit up nice and tall in your chair, using your abdominal muscles to support your spine. Take a deep breath in, feeling your ribcage gently expand. Exhale and ease your left ear towards your left shoulder. Give your
shoulders permission to relax. Take three slow, long breaths, allowing your neck and jaw to release. When you're ready to come up, cradle the side of your face with your left hand and use your arm to lift your head up. Repeat on the other side. Austin Kula Yoga offers Forrest Yoga Basics classes specifically designed to teach you how to melt stress and tension from your body, and also revitalize every inch of yourself with deep breathing and invigorating poses. There is no better time to take care of yourself.
