Balancing gives us a chance to find our centre of gravity. It teaches us to still the wobbling – both the physical and mental and to create a sense of fluid stability.
Balancing poses build alignment, strength and focus.
Alignment of the body with gravity is crucial; it makes balance physically possible.
Strength gives us the power to create, hold, and adjust alignment and focus on continually monitoring alignment so we know how to correct it from one moment to the next.
The benefits of balance poses can be taken off the mat, they are helpful in relieving stress and reducing inner tension, they improve focus, concentration and memory.
Finally, the unquestionable benefit of the poses is the ability to control emotions in critical and stressful moments.
Join us this week on the mat to create balance in our lives.
