YOGA (action)

I just started yoga this year and I am really excited about it! Yoga lessons take place after school each wednesday for 2 hours and are the best thing a student could do to relax after school. The teacher teaches us different ways of breathing, for different life situations. Specifically, my favourite type of breath is the "Full Breath" in which you breath both using your lungs and your stomach. This type of breath should be performed while you lie down and what it does is a "mashage" to your stomach and expands your lungs air capacity. I have also leaned different relaxing excercises that can be performed anytime to make you feel more relaxed and loose.Specifically, we learned that when we feel tired it is mostly because our eyes are exhausted.We then need to close our eyes and perform a really specific masage to areas arround the nose and by the eyes.These new skills I have now acquired are extremely useful, have proven to be really effective and I use them everyday whenever I can!Finally, we have been tought several body exercises that aim at increasing blood flow generally aim at preventing any minor injuries and generally keep your body healthy and fit!
