|Organic Energy| . . #weareanusara Day 5 . Life is joyful, full of experiences and learning behind those experiences. . Our only job once we are alive is to fully experience life and allow ourselves to express our uniqueness and that what makes us be us! . Organic Energy is all about expressing and manifesting, is allowing the divine to co create through us. . Is rooting ourselves deep down into our Divine Essence and rising up to co-create with the Divine (God, Consciousness, Gaia, Universe) as an Artful Expression of Love and Beauty . . . For Organic Energy I choose Adho Mukha Vrksasana or Handstands rooting with our hands into our grounded reality allows us to rise to the heavens. For me this Asana lets us understand how we are manifesting through our hands into the world and standing with our feet into the higher reality. Like the asvattha tree, it roots into the heavens and manifest it branches into the world. . . . #anusarayoga #anusara #organicenergy #universalprinciplesofalignment #upas #expression #manifesting #yoga #giannichavez #cocreatewellness #yogachallenge #love #life #uniqueness #joyful #love #colorful #makeshifthappen (at Guayaquil, Ecuador)

#WeAreAnusara - Day 4 - #FourthPrinciple #ContractingSpiral #OuterSpiral ... Activating Outer/Contracting Spiral in the legs results in several characteristic shifts in the body, including a decrease in lordosis in the lower back, the tailbone scooping down away from the sacrum and forward toward the pubis, and a contraction of the lower abdominals. Too much Outer Spiral will overpower the actions of Inner/Expanding Spiral and potentially prevent the femur heads from setting back into the center of the hip sockets and close off the back and floor of the pelvis. This could result in rounding and/or tightness in the low back and/or bind the hip flexors. The muscles that contribute to Outer Spiral are big and strong. The actions of Outer Spiral must be applied in a way that balances but does not overpower Inner Spiral. ... Outer Spiral must be applied carefully, but it can also be a very powerful force within the body and within a pose. In #ardhachandrasana, I focus on Outer Spiral in my standing leg. I tack my hip and outer thigh back toward my lifted foot and squeeze the glute underneath the top hip. This creates an outer rotation in the thigh, pulls the bottom hip under the top hip, stabilizes the hips, and helps to lift the top hip. Then I can stretch long in every direction! ... I saw several others choose half moon pose or a variation of it for Outer/Contracting Spiral. For me, it is a key element to making the pose full. ...

First Principle of Anusara Yoga - Set the Foundation and Open to Possibilities. Place your hands and your feet for optimal alignment, take the outer form of the pose, breathe deeply, clear your mind, and the possibilities are endless. ... I teach a specific style of hatha yoga called “Anusara Yoga”. The system is based on “The Universal Principles of Alignment”, a set of simple and elegant alignment techniques that apply to every pose. But they does NOT mean that everyone’s pose is the same. This is NOT cookie cutter yoga. The alignment principles must be carefully applied to every body in different amounts and intensities. I can teach you the principles in a short amount of time. It will take a little longer to master them. Want to check it out? Follow my series on Ice Water Yoga. Two week free trial.

|outer spiral - contracting spiral| . . #weareanusara Day 4 . After going inwards and reconnecting with the Divine in ourselves, we understand that life is a path of transformation Outer (Contracting) Spiral is connecting to you will and your capacity to be a catalyst of transformation. . Is our inner fire that encourages us to act from a place of love. Is acknowledging that everything that is happening within ourselves is also happening outside us. . . . . . . . For Outer Spiral I choose Eka Pada Pandagustasana because life is all about transformation and having the will to share and cherish our lives in community, family, friends, with the people we love and with the people that keep our hearts warm. . . . #anusarayoga #anusara #outerspiral #universalprinciplesofalignment #upas #contractingspiral #yoga #giannichavez #cocreatewellness #yogachallenge #love #life #vulnerability #makeshifthappen (at Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires)
