    Bobbi Misiti Yoga & Health Coaching 717.443.1119 befityoga.com [email protected] TOPIC OF THE MONTH May 2013 INSIDE OUT POSTURING 10 Systems of the Ashtanga yoga works more on the inside than the outside, this is one of the reasons it is a very misunderstood practice. Our minds get ahold of the physical side of the practice -- since this is the most tangible, we then turn the practice into grunt work or into musculo- skeletal exercise only. Although the muscles and bones are important to keep healthy, ashtanga yoga works much deeper on all the systems of the body. This is why we do some of the “funky” things we do, like stick our heel in our gut, catch our big toes, and jump back . When you take your practice inside and do your practice from the inside out -- working with your organs, your Ashtanga Yoga works on each system of the body: nervous system, your Skeletal and muscular system with Sun Salutes and all postures. endocrine system, and most Circulatory system with all postures, especially inversions. importantly your breathing Digestive system - Poses such as Navasana are done to improve digestion by system and patterns of your strengthening abdominals to help food move through the body. attention or consciousness, Urinary System - all poses where we roll on our back are done for the urinary you get the inner experience. system and the ureter channel -- the channel that goes from the kidneys to the bladder.

  • INTERVIEW with B.K.S. IYENGAR on BACKBENDS 12/5/91 Questions Asked by Victor Oppenheimer and Patricia Walden
    INTERVIEW WITH B.K.S. IYENGAR ON BACKBENDS 12/5/91 Questions asked by Victor Oppenheimer and Patricia Walden These questions were asked during the teachers’ backbend intensive Mr. Iyengar taught in November-December, 1991. This intensive was videotaped, and some of the questions refer to the videotapes. The interview was transcribed and edited by Francie Ricks. Victor Oppenheimer: Why backbends? B.K.S. Iyengar: In the asana systems, the most advanced postures are the backbends. The human structure is such that the idea does not strike anyone that the spinal vertebrae can be moved backward as well as forward and sideways, without causing injury. In the field of yoga, backbends are not taught at the early stages in the practice of this art, but only when the body is trained and when it is tuned and toned to such an extent that it can accept these poses. Backbends are to be felt more than expressed. The other postures can be expressed and then felt. But in backbends, like meditations, each person has to feel. And that’s why I thought that after fifty years of teaching, at least some of my students should get the background of the right means to perform the backbends. Backbends are not poses meant for exhibitionism. Backbends are meant to understand the back parts of our bodies. The front body can be seen with the eyes. The back body cannot be seen; it can only be felt. That’s why I say these are the most advanced postures, where the mind begins to look at the back, first on the peripheral level, then inwards, towards the core.

Lymph has a very important job in our body, it filters the water and other fluids that leak from our cells -- killing the bad bacteria and disease in the fluid then transporting the clean fluid back to our heart where it is mixed in with our blood. Our lymphatic system is kind of like municipality water . It is waste water that is filtered and cleaned and dumped back into the heart to be used a water in our blood. It’s really an interesting process . Here is another overview of your Lymph system: As our blood courses through arteries, pressure from the flow makes fluid including wastes, salts, pieces of cells, proteins, urea, glucose, and various other compositions depending on what we are putting in our body leak from our capillaries. Our capillaries are known as “little leakers” ;) Our lymphatic vessels are similar to veins in that they have thin walls and many of the vessels lie just beneath the skin (there are deeper lymphatic vessels as well).

  • Chair Kapotasana-Pigeon Pose
    Chair Kapoasana: pigeon pose Kapotasana is a challenging backbend that benefits from some carefully thought out preparation. Presented here is one of my favorite variations – though it's going to be too advanced for many. For beginners, backbend (Dwi Pada Viparita Dandasana) over a chair will be a better place to start. Although Supta Virasana and Ustrasana do not necessarily have to be practiced in the same session as Kapotasana, master them before bringing Kapotasana (or chair Kapotasana, or Kapotasana with a Block and Bolster) into your practice. See Light On Yoga: BKS Iyengar advises beginners to come into classical Kapotasana from Supta Virasana. Benefits: Practice Kapotasana Over a Chair to warm up for Kapotasana or on its own to mobilize the shoulders; strengthen and flex the spine; stretch the quadriceps and hip flexors; energize and strengthen the core, and steady and concentrates the mind. Chair Kapoasana Set a chair up toward the front of a mat. Stack blocks Holding the chair, tuck your legs one at a time under under the chair to the level of the bars between the the chair and rest them on the support, toenails down. front and back chair legs. Move your feet apart until your outer ankles press the inside of the chair legs, and keep them there Slide a folded blanket on top of the blocks and over throughout the pose. the bars. Place a four-fold mat on the chair seat. (The person who modelled for these drawings has a long spine, therefore two extra mats were folded into eight and placed along the chair seat to increase the height for her.) Loop a belt around the front legs of the chair, and lay the end of the belt flat on the floor, perpendicular to the chair.

    Bobbi Misiti 00.1 Market Street Camp HIll, PA 12.11 212.333.1115 be#tyoga.com TOPIC OF THE MONTH September 2013 INSIDE OUT POSTURING, continued. Navasana :) Boat pose . Navasana is beneficial for our spinal cord (Vina-Danda), and strengthening our digestion. In Sanskrit the spine is known as Vina Danda, we know from our asana practice that danda means stick; Vina is a stringed instrument in India. Our spine is likened to the neck or “stick” of a guitar like instrument . play it right and it sings a beautiful song . Navasana serves two main purposes: To support our spine and to improve digestion. Navasana and our spine Strong abdominals support the spine. Many conventional abdominal exercises have you doing crunches . crunches are not an effective abdominal exercise; our abdominals’ job is not to have us flex our spine -- this creates poor posture. The abdominals job is to stabilize the spine and keep it long with space between the vertebrae. Stabilizing type exercises are most effective -- where you hold neutral spine while something tries to pull you out of neutral spine. Navasana is this -- a weighted stabilizing exercise -- as we li, and +oat our legs the weight of our legs tries to pull our pelvis to an anterior tilt. We then are trying to keep our pelvis in a neutral alignment -- not tipping our pelvis forward or back (sometimes we are too zealous and tip our pelvis too far back to a posterior tilt) -- as we strengthen our abs to stabilize our spine it improves our posture and keeps the spine long and even.
