Module 2, Day 1 • Opening meditation: Visualize energy drawing in: ground & center it • Quote: "To dwell in the here and now does not mean you never think about the past or responsibly plan for the future. The idea is simply not to allow yourself to get lost in regrets about the past or worries about the future. If you are firmly grounded in the present moment, the past can be an object of inquiry, the object of your mindfulness and concentration. You can attain many insights by looking into the past. But you are still grounded in the present moment." - Thich Nhat Hanh • Physical Theme: Extending Yourself • Pose focus: Eagle, Warrior 3, Supta padangusthasana • From seated in chair: o Sun breaths (inhale arms overhead, exhale arms by sides) x3 o Sit with L hand under L hip, palm facing down (press hand down).

It plays an important role to prevent and treat the disease. Ayurveda specifically deals with mind body balance. The main part of it is Yoga and Asana. Yoga provides us a simple remedies, facile skills and procedure of good health. Asana gives physical and mental power and tone the body-mind for further exercise. Parivrtta Parsvakonasana is often referred to as the revolved side angle pose. This Asana strengthens and stretches the legs, knees, and ankles and stretches the groins, spine, chest and lungs, and shoulders. Practicing this Asana improves digestion and aids elimination. Key words- Yoga, Asana, Parivrtta Parsvakonasana, revolved side angle pose. Introduction- Parivrtta Parsvakonasana refers to a variation of the standing side-stretch yoga Asanas that require balance and flexibility with the legs in Virabhadrasana lunge position; the opposite arm rests on the lead leg or reaches to the ground, while the other arm extends overhead, creating a twist through the core of the body. In addition to its physical benefits, this pose is believed to relieve stress. The name comes from the Sanskrit Parivrtta, meaning “to turn around” or “revolve,” parsva, meaning "side or flank," kona, meaning "angle," and asana, meaning "posture." The common English name for Parivrtta Parsvakonasana is revolved side angle pose.
