practiced properly, twists will affect the entire organism from deep in the spine, through the major organs and further outward to the layers of skin. coiling and in and out of various asanas squeezes and moves stagnant fluids in the body and makes room for fresh fluids to come in. this action of compression and release actually massages the viscera (guts) helping with the systematic functioning of blood filtration (kidneys), respiration (diaphragm), digestion (stomach) and elimination (intestines). energetically, this influences the third chakra - manipura (fire element) of the solar plexus, low back and waist which is the reservoir of one’s prana. it is here where connection to one’s esteem, will, and “gut feeling” lives.
enjoy! |
