Yoga for Hotter Sex: Chaturanga Dandasana


In this series, we're bringing you the best yoga poses for better sex. The third pose in this series is Chaturanga Dandasana.

Sexual Being
No one wants to be in the throes of hot and heavy love making and have to stop because they couldn’t keep their plank up. Arm strength and core integration are important fitness determining factors and they give us the ability to glide through the delights of sex.
Chaturanga Dandasana is the yogi push-up, and if you do it consistently and maintain good form, it will give you the endurance to go all night long.
Riding The Wave
If you can’t get into and out of a solid plank during a vinyasa practice, you are going to feel like a fish out of water. The reality for any yoga practice is not just having flexible hips or an open chest, you also need the strength to hold your body weight off of the floor. I call this kind of strength riding the wave because virtually every transition we make physically, both on and off the mat, requires the deep inner power built from holding planks and plank push-up.
When we are rolling around in the sheets that same power is translated into the supple, rhythmic flow we know as incredible sex, plank literally gives us the ability to extend our pleasure.
Can I Plank You
There are few postures better suited for holistic body awareness and strength than a plank. The combination of alignment in the upper torso with inner thigh and deep core strength, make plank push-ups revolutionary for solidifying the mind-body connection. As you hold the top of a plank or transition into the plank push-up, muscles throughout the physique are both lengthening and bearing weight, eccentric contraction. In particular the obliques, rectus muscles and psoas minor work to stabilize the spine. While the gluteus maximus and the hamstrings work to keep the lower body stable. In the upper body, there is a similar synergy between the activation of the pectoral muscles and muscles like the serratus anterior in the upper back.
Synergy is the key element here, stabilization of the form leads directly to the ability to transition fluidly. In the bedroom, you and your partner will appreciate incredible pelvic endurance.
Sex
Hot sex is creative sex, especially if you have been doing it with the same person for a long time. Plank can definitely earn you the right to get creative (think acro yoga). Not everyone wants to swing from the rafters, but most of us can appreciate the steady rhythm that comes from a lover that embodies the experience.
Passionate love play is as much about a body primed for the experience as it is about feeling the passion. So the next time you are in plank, remind yourself that you are riding the wave toward more pleasure on and off the mat.
Tip: If you have difficulty holding your body weight off the floor, then lightly drop the knees to the mat to reduce the load on the shoulders and upper back. The mechanics of the movement in the upper body should be consistent. Chest should be open as you gaze forward with your elbows in and your core and legs strong. Never drop the upper torso below the level of the elbows or sag into the hips. As you grow stronger push away from the floor to learn to float through your push-up.

The Benefit of Yoga Fight or Flight?



The Benefit of Yoga  Fight or Flight?


The Benefit of Yoga  Fight or Flight?


Therapeutic conditions can be immensely enhanced through the profit of yoga. Yoga can decrease the negative impacts of such conditions as lung illness, Parkinson's, a sleeping disorder, hypertension various sclerosis, and even joint agony. The profit of yoga is being perceived today as a reasonable option not just by the yoga group, yet by numerous restorative specialists. 

Anxiety is the main cause in numerous sicknesses today. A surprising element in today's reality is noted by the Surgeon General who evaluates that "80 percent of the individuals who kick the bucket of non traumatic causes really pass on of anxiety ailments". In this quick paced world, it is little ponder that individuals are turning to option arrangements. 

The utilization of the profit of yoga is only one such arrangement. Since anxiety is created in the brain, it is just common that conditions, for example, misery, nervousness, over the top impulsive issue, a few auto-resistant illnesses, a few sorts of diabetes mellitius, some cardio-vascular infections, and peevish entrail disorder would be at the bleeding edge of human conditions and the personal satisfaction today. 

Outside anxiety is reflected in the response of our sensory system. The info jolts, known as "Battle or flight" influences both our digestion system and prosperity. At the point when confronted with peril, whether genuine or envisioned, the psyche readies the body for execution of one of these two conditions. Indication is as expanded heart rate, higher pulse, and the closing down of unnecessary real capacities, for example, assimilation. All frameworks are centered around one of two things - either "flight" or "battle."  Breathing gets to be shallow, muscles strained in foresight of activity, and blood stream to indispensable organs is diminished. The digestive and end procedure close down. This can be something worth being thankful for - our body is readied to shield itself. On the other hand, issues emerge when this condition is long haul. The "flight or battle" situation is just intended to be a fleeting occasion. One can see that long haul presentation to this circumstance will have extremely unfavorable consequences for the body. Yoga can change that. 

In nature, the countermeasure for "battle or flight" is known as the "unwinding reaction" or parasympathetic sensory system. The principle nerves of the parasympathetic framework are the tenth cranial nerves, or the vagus nerves. They start in the medulla oblongata. Parasympathetic incitement causes an easing off of the pulse, bringing down of circulatory strain, expanded blood stream to the skin and viscera, and peristalsis of the GI tract - the careful inverse of "battle or Flight" manifestations. Yoga actuates this reaction by showing the student to inhale profoundly and unwind muscles. The profit of yoga is clear. The body recoups quicker, and the hurtful impacts of anxiety are diminished. 

Yoga subscribes to the hypothesis that by utilizing breathing and unwinding methods, the unsafe impacts of weight on the body can be wiped out, or at any rate significantly lessened. Through reflection and smoothing of the soul, yoga shows us to face the circumstances of "battle or flight" from a risk to a test. One is capable through practice to spotlight on discovering an answer, instead of making a quick reaction to the jolts. One figures out how to be proactive, and deal with the stressors in their lives. 

The profit of yoga is irrefutable. By using the procedures of this aged practice, anybody can attain to the offset and congruity so required in their lives. Keep in mind, on the other hand, that only one thing is not the answer for the majority of life's issues. By consolidating yoga with the supernatural occurrences of advanced solution and conventional recuperating cures, the normal individual in today's reality will appreciate a more drawn out, more satisfied life.

The Power of Stretching


The Power of Stretching



The Power of Stretching



Your muscles hurt from a decent extend. This is truly ordinary and is a piece of the methodology. Extending has apparently been with us and specific with competitors since the start of time. 

An exceptionally key point to great extending is to hold the stretch for no less than seventeen seconds. This is a pearl of knowledge gathered from a balance artistry educator a couple of years back. She said that any stretch under 17 seconds was simply not viable. 

The 17 second control is surpassed in the high power Bikram's yoga where extends are held for around 30 seconds. Keep in mind the abnormal state of high temperature that is utilized as a part of Bikram's to concentrate that last smidgen of stretch out of your muscles. An intriguing wind that is not important to pick up profits from extending. However, it can't damage, isn't that so? 

So what sort of profits would you be able to anticipate from extending? That is a simple one. Have you ever seen the film, Blood Sport? Did you realize that Frank Dux could genuinely extend his body to the amazing. The on-screen character that played him was very flexible also. 

Extraordinary flexibility is additionally something you may see in decently prepared Spetsnaz(russian)agents. They regularly work out with Russian kettlebells as well. They are for better quality additions and the capacity than withstand ballistic stuns. 

Why are extending and adaptability considered vital to these individuals? Extending provides for one the capacity to have dangerous force accessible's readily available without the need to warm up. Obviously the vast majority of us are not military craftsmen or operators. However, you'll be cheerful to know there are a lot of different profits. 

Given me a chance to provide for you a case. In the wake of figuring out how to sit in the full lotus position for drawn out stretches of time, my lower legs got to be exceptionally adaptable. One day I was strolling along and my left foot fell into a pothole. This accident pushed my lower leg sideways to around 90 degrees from its typical position. 

Amazingly, this didn't even damage, not one bit. On the off chance that my lower leg hadn't been so adaptable, I may have endured a sprained lower leg. At any rate, it would have harmed for quite a long time. 

Key point: extending helps us to dodge wounds. That as well as on the off chance that you do have a muscle, tendon or ligament damage it ought to recuperate quicker, hypothetically talking. 

Extending really develops the ligaments, tendons and muscles being extended. They truly become longer over the long haul. 

Check with your doctor before undertaking any sort of activity, including extending.
