Hi folks! Here's a video showing one of the "mother asanas" of hatha yoga. I hope you enjoy it. CONTRAINDICATIONS: disc conditions, sciatica.

BENEFITS: Loads! Lengthens the spine & the hamstrings, strengthens the back, helps reduce anxiety and is great to prepare the body for sleep or meditation. Also, it increases blood flow to the pelvic region and therefore stimulates sexual vitality ;-)

As always, please give me a shout if you have any questions.
