How to Yoga - Revolved Triangle
<html>
<h1>Good day, Steemians!</h1>
<blockquote><br>
The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away. -- Pablo Picasso</blockquote>
<p><br>
It's a lovely Saturday, and just like every other day<br>
I get to do exactly what I want to do;<br>
it sure is awesome to be FREE!<br>
What I want to do is continue building the new economy,<br>
so I'm going to trade some of my very favorite things<br>
including <a href="http://www.epichandmadeknives.com">Epic Handmade Knives</a> and <a href="https://steemit.com/health/@gardenofeden/iodine-is-essential-for-healthy-thyroid-function">iodine</a> (I <em>really</em> โค iodine!)<br>
at the <a href="https://steemit.com/life/@gardenofeden/building-the-new-economy-offering-our-epic-treasures-by-donation-towards-our-cause-choose-a-gift-that-keeps-on-giving-this">Urban Traders Market</a> with @gardenofeden &amp; @everlove today.<br>
As always, everything we raise is dedicated towards making<br>
a better world for ALL,<br>
so I'm excited because our success today means a stronger,<br>
happier, healthier community.<br>
I'm so grateful that by sharing my passion,<br>
I can actually make life better for other people.<br>
This is magic!<br>
I shall begin by sharing yoga with my beloved Steemit,<br>
and I hope that it can serve you.<br>
I sincerely wish that this is the best day of your life!<br>

<h1>This is Revolved Triangle</h1>
<p>AKA Parivrtta Trikonasana</p>
<p>(parivrtta = revolved, tri = three, kona = angle, asana = pose/posture)</p>
<p><br>
<em><strong>Revolved triangle develops focus.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong><br>
</strong></em>Revolved triangle relieves digestive problems,<br>
asthma, lower backache, and sciatica.<br>
It's fantastic for balance and concentration, &nbsp;<br>
and it increases strength and flexibility in the<br>
hamstrings, hips, and spine.<br>
<em><strong><br>
</strong></em>Yoga will very quickly show you where you are at;<br>
the body tells you its limits,<br>
and the mind will wander to anything you allow.<br>
It's extremely beautiful that there is no pressure<br>
in any practice (unless you are applying it to yourself!),<br>
and you are free to maintain your level or progress at whatever pace<br>
feels appropriate for you, but<br>
an ultimate goal of yoga is to connect mind and body.<br>
<br>
Ultimately, separation is only in perception,<br>
because every single muscle cell is attached to a nerve -<br>
the nervous system wires the <em>entire</em> organism.<br>
But since perception dictates reality,<br>
it's common to feel as if the mind is limited to just the brain or cranium.<br>
If that is what you perceive, alignments in asanas<br>
are key for unlocking the connection &nbsp;<br>
between the mind and body; subtle shifts and refinements<br>
will catapult this pose to another dimension.&nbsp;<br>
</p>
<p>Moving the body gives the mind a place to settle.<br>
In a challenging pose like this,<br>
focused concentration on the bodily sensations<br>
encourage a feedback loop -<br>
the mind sees an area that feels difficult,<br>
and the body makes subtle adjustments<br>
until you find a space of grace and ease.<br>
<br>
With this pose, an even distribution of weight is essential.<br>
If you are off, balance is challenged.<br>
Emotional stuff can bubble up<br>
(which is super common when unlocking<br>
tight areas of the body, FYI)<br>
and the mind can calmly observe what<br>
arises without getting caught up;<br>
just feel the feeling and let it move on out with the breath!<br>
Yoga is super effective (and free!) somatic psychotherapy.</p>

<h1>How to REVOLVED TRIANGLE:</h1>
<ul>
  <li>From standing, turn to the side and jump the feet 3-4 feet apart.&nbsp;</li>
  <li>Turn the left toes towards the short edge of the mat; the right foot stays parallel to the short edge of the mat (or may turn in 45 to 60 degrees).&nbsp;</li>
  <li>Heels stay in line.</li>
  <li>Arms come out to the side at shoulder height, reaching through the fingertips.</li>
  <li>Lift the chest and extend the spine; maintain this space throughout the full expression.</li>
  <li>Exhale and as you twist the hips to the left and bend from there, bring the right hand to the mat, either inside or outside of the left foot.</li>
  <li>Ground the back heel.</li>
  <li>Left hand reaches up towards the sky while the spine stays parallel to the ground.&nbsp;</li>
  <li>Gaze can be at the ground or fingertips.</li>
  <li>You can use a block under the right hand.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
