    This class will focus on standing forward bends to help keep you safe, while understanding the actions necessary.
    Due to tight hamstrings, hips, or lower back, forward bending can be really challenging! I struggled with this a lot in the early period of my yoga journey.
    Standing forward bends are a bit more accessible than seated and supine, as the legs are not fixed so the body will make adjustments by compensating in an incorrect direction, usually the path of least resistance which will create lasting imbalances. I. e. (bending the knees or rounding the back)
    Forward bending requires surrendering by letting go of what is most comfortable and leaning into the more challenging and uncomfortable sensations.
    They are the perfect opportunity to observe your mind and your conversation with yourself. Become aware of your thoughts, habits and tendencies.
    Once identified, you can address your inner dialog and make changes to go beyond where you usually stop.
    Forward bending requires you to just be there, and slow down. Little by little your body and mind will transform if you maintain a regular practice. There is no quick and easy shortcut to forward bending, just keep showing up and celebrate the small consistent wins.
    They will all add up in the end and you will find comfort where there was once discomfort.

    Hi! Greetings from Argentina =) I love your classes. I would love to make you a question about uttanasana. what is the correct action of the pelvis in uttanasana? retroversion or anteversion? Thank you very much! Namaste

    • @DesaYogiIyengarYoga
      @DesaYogiIyengarYoga  10 місяців тому

      Greetings Argentina! In all forward folding asana there is a anteversion. The direction of movement is from from the root of the spine (tailbone) to the head (shoot). The posterior of the spine is lengthening as is the alterior lengthening. Backs of the thighs lifting, and inner thighs rolling back. With this there is a outer front groin rotation toward the back thigh. Also take a look at the video in the youtube. Iyengar Yoga Pascimottasana. I explain a lots more there. Take a look!
      Hope that is clear. ::)) Blessings

    Hi Kathy, in forward bends do you lift the anterior spine more than posterior and lateral? How do you ensure that the lift in anterior posterior and lateral is equal. Is there a lock at the navel to ensure equal lift?

    • @DesaYogiIyengarYoga
      @DesaYogiIyengarYoga  4 місяці тому

      Whenever we go to forward bends we first concave the back which lengthens the anterior spine. Essentially you are lifting the front ribs away from the abdomen. Lengthen from the pubic bone to the navel to the sternum. Both sides of the trunk will lengthen by lifting from the lower back waist corners. Enjoy 🙏🏻

      @@DesaYogiIyengarYoga Hmm...at what point in.this process do you lock the abdomen...i.e press navel into back? I find without this lock the anterior extends more than posterior leading to issues in posterior spine.
