Sustaining YOU

Sustain yourself with a few yoga moves. You know, yoga is for more than just getting into shape. It can also help you relax from all the pressures of the global warming stress that a lot of us are feeling anymore. Sometimes it just seems that all we do isn’t enough, even a simple pause can help us get back to what’s important and ground our focus. Rejuvenating our brains and clearing the cloudy thinking from a scattered lifestyle to a more centered one is the most important thing. Here’s how to capture that moment back to stable thinking.

Adho Mukha Svanasana: Downward-Facing Dog Pose

Parsvakonasana: Side Angle Pose

Trikonasana: Triangle Pose

Setu Bandha Sarvangasana: Bridge Pose

Janu Sirsasana: Head-of-the-knee Pose

Viparita Karani: Legs-up-the-wall Pose

With a bit of incorporation with yoga into you day to day activities, you will see a change for the better in your thinking and your ability to sustain yourself from the drumming of stress from your daily tasks.

*Natural and Sustainable Living Tip: Solar power is becoming more and more popular with every passing day. If you are considering solar power within your own home, I hope these thoughts push you toward the direction of solar energy even more:

1. Solar power significantly cuts your electricity costs and protects the environment as well.

2. A complete “turnkey” system within it’s self-all rebates and permits are handled by the installer.

3. Virtually maintenance free.

4. Most companies that install solar power panels back their products with a full 10-year warranty on parts and even their workmanship.

5. Join the solar power revolution and help save the earth and your money everyday you use them. For more information, check out BP Solar.
