Movement with Sophie welcomes you to join this Twist focused flow to detoxify kickstart your weekend.
The flow will challenge the body, as you will be essentially compressing your digestive organs – placing them under weight. When you release your twist there will be a rush or fresh blood that will flood your digestive organs. Fresh blood flow equals fresh oxygen and nutrients.
Twisting will increase blood flow to the digestive organs, thus increasing their ability to function.
This re-introduction of fresh blood can help to cleanse the cells of any built up waste because with increased circulation comes increased cellular detoxification. You can also help to move stagnated impurities and gas through your digestive tract due to the compression that comes with twisting.
These postures will help to open the chest, shoulders and back, all of which can help to decrease feelings of anxiousness.
Learn how to get better connected with your alignment and focus on slow and controlled transitions.
There are many contraindications (including pregnancy) for yoga poses, which is why consulting your doctor before practicing yoga is essential.
