Burn your Body fat to do this Bharadvaja Asana

Twlstlng poses  in yoga stretch and lengthen the spine, calm the nervous system, and help detoxify the body. Most yoga classes include at least some twisting poses because they offer so many great benefits. Bharadvaja’s Twist — called “Bharadvajasana I” (bah-RAHD-vah-JAHS-uh-nuh) in Sanskrit — is a simple seated position that is suitable for most people, including beginners. It’s named after the ancient Indian sage, Bharadvaja. He was a wise seer who is believed to have composed hymns that were later collected in ancient scriptures called the Vedas, around 1500 BCE. This pose is sometimes called, “Pose Dedicated to the Sage Bharadvaja.”

Practicing this twist can help re-balance your body from head to toe, inside and out. It can calm your mind and allow you to feel more peaceful — which might have been how Bharadvaja felt when composing his hymns!

Steps :

1. Sit on the floor with your legs stretched out in front of you. Place your arms in a resting position at your sides.
2. Bend your knees and bring them toward your left hip, such that the weight of your body is now resting on your right buttock. The inner side of your left ankle should now be able to rest on the arch of your right foot.
3. Inhale slowly and stretch your spine to lengthen it as much as possible. Then, exhale slowly and twist your upper trunk to the maximum extent possible. You may keep your right hand on the floor and your left hand will rest on the outer part of the thigh of your right leg.
4. Ensure that the hip on your left side presses down the weight of the body on the floor.
5. Now, with a slight bend in the upper part of your back, twist around your backbone and feel its effects from your lower back to the tip of your head.
6. Try to apply a lengthening force to your spine with each breath, and twist your body further with each exhalation.
7. Turning your head, look out over the shoulder on your right. Remain in this pose for a minute.
8. Exhale slowly and gently untwist your trunk to revert to its original position. Now, you need to repeat the same procedure with your right side, placing your weight on the left buttock.

Benefits of Bharadvajasana

• Practicing Bharadvajasana consistently helps in extending and fortifying your arms, shoulders, spine, thighs, waist, calf muscles and your lower legs (Ankles).
• It relives in lower back agony, neck torment and sciatica torment.
• It is good remedial for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
• It is beneficial in the symptoms of stress.
• It gently massages the organs of abdominal.
• It boosts the digestive system.
• It enhances lungs capacity.
• It stretches belly and reduces the fat of your belly.
• Daily practices help in reducing side fats of your body.
• It improves the blood circulation in body.

Tips
Bharadvajasana can add variety and detoxifying benefits to your regular yoga practice. Keep the following information in mind when practicing this pose:-

• Keep the back of your neck soft. Let your head balance gently over your spine, and allow it to be the last part of your spine to turn. Never lead the twist with your head.
• Let your belly be soft throughout the twist.
• Keep your buttocks grounded throughout the pose.
• Allow your pelvis to turn gently with the twist.
• Do not rush the pose. Move with your breath. Lengthen your spine on the inhalations, and gently rotate deeper on the exhalations.
• Perform the twist to the right first. Twisting your upper torso to the right will place pressure on the ascending colon. Twisting to the left places pressure on the descending colon. This right-left order stimulates digestion and detoxification. Reversing the sequence and pressing on the descending colon first may cause aggravation, constipation, bloating, and intestinal discomfort.

Strengthen the lower back with Chair Pose (Utkatasana)

Sitting in a chair may sound very easy and comfortable. But sitting in an imaginary chair might be a little challenging! And this is exactly what we do in Utkatasana or Chair Pose. The literal meaning of Utkatasana is intense posture or powerful posture.
(Utkat=Intense, Powerful; Asana= Posture/Pose; pronounced as U-t-kat- asana).
You need just a little bit of determination to stay longer in the Chair Posture. Make sure you read the contraindications before you start.
Steps to Chair Pose / Utkatasana

• Stand erect with your feet slightly apart.
• Stretch your hands to the front with palms facing downwards. Do not bend your elbows.
• Bend the knees and gently push your pelvis down as if you are sitting in an imaginary chair.
• Be comfortable or at least try to be! To get a better feel of the Chair Pose, imagine reading a newspaper or typing on a laptop as you remain seated.
• Ensure that you keep your hands parallel to the ground.
• With awareness, sit straight and lengthen your spine. Relax.
• Keep breathing and flip through the pages of the newspaper, enjoying national and international news.
• Sink deeper into the chair by gradually going down but ensure that your knees don’t go beyond your toes.
• Keep going down slowly and then sit down in Sukhasana (cross-legged posture). If you want, you may lie down on your back and relax.

Tip from Sri Sri Yoga expert: Smile throughout. It will help you to hold the posture longer. It is a good idea to do the Chair Pose after you have finished all the other standing yoga postures. You can then start with the sitting yoga postures or the lying down yoga postures.

What is Yoga Therapy?

Yoga therapy can be defined as the application of Yogic principles to a particular person with the goal of achieving a particular spiritual, psychological, or physiological goal. The means employed are composed of cleverly conceived steps which include but are not limited to the components of Ashtânga Yoga, which includes the educational teachings of yama, niyama, asana, prânâyâma, pratyâhâra, dhâranâ, dhyâna and samâdhi. Also included are the application of meditation, textual study, spiritual or psychological counseling, singing, imagery, prayer and ritual to meet the needs of the individual. Yoga therapy respects individual differences in age, culture, religion, philosophy, occupation, and mental and physical health. The competent and competent yogin or yogin applies Yoga Therapy according to the period, place and age, strength and activities of the practitioner

Yoga therapy tends to be milder with a greater focus on body awareness, postural alignment and movement that is linked with relaxed rhythmic breathing. It takes time to tune in with the experience of the mind, which cultivates a greater self-consciousness.
Yoga promotes balance and strength on a physical, mental and emotional level. When our balance is disturbed by illness, yoga can help restore it, or manage the disease. “I can tell you that yoga is simply the most powerful system of general health and wellness I have ever seen”
Yoga Therapy Practitioners are experienced yoga teachers who have completed post-graduate training in medical conditions and uses of yoga and its bio-medical effects.
