Practicing of the system 'Yoga in Daily Life', Level 1 - Part 3
A morning yoga practice guides the body and mind through relaxation, breath, and movement. Begin by chanting Oṁ to purify the atmosphere. Lie down and consciously relax every part of the body from the toes to the crown of the head. Observe the natural breath. Practice the three components of full yoga breathing: abdominal, chest, and clavicular. Combine them into a single, wave-like breath. Perform gentle stretches and movements synchronized with inhalation and exhalation. These include arm raises, diagonal stretches, and poses like Pavanamuktāsana and Navāsana. Practice side bends and rotations for the wrists and hips. Conclude with standing balances and a final relaxation. Observe the difference in sensation from the beginning to the end of practice. Finish with Prāṇāyāma and the chanting of Oṁ.
"Relax all the muscles of your right foot without moving; let the relaxation occur in your mind."
"Influence your breath and feel how the abdomen expands with inhalation and contracts with exhalation."
