Imagine a chair,  now sit on it :) 
I love this pose! Chair pose is one of my favourites and I keep repeating it during warm up.
It immediately bring us into balance and strength! Through our legs.

If you never use something, if you never move it, then it’s going to be very stiff. It’s like saying you got a sore ankle, let’s put a bandage on it, let’s keep the bandage on for the rest of your life. It doesn’t make sense. To lock the ankle with a bandage while it’s heeling is fine. But generally you take the bandage off the ankle. 

The main challenge for the third chakra is to use your personal power in a balanced manner. What does that mean? It means consciously harnessing the energy of this chakra. It means being proactive rather than reactive or inactive.

While one side stretch, the other side contract. While one side is cooling, stretching, spacing, releasing stagnant energy stored in the muscles and organs, the other side is warming, as these organs are compressed and stimulated.
Thanks to that, Triangle pose (and all side stretch poses) work in a way that is balancing and energising, both Yin and Yang correspond equally, balance the body mind and can serve to energizethe nervous system whilst releasing stagnant energy stored.

If you read my blog since the beginning (Jan 17) you probably notice that I write about Yoga and also about my personal life.
I have been through some big changes in my life, personally, internally and externally.
I like writing personal posts that describe some of the therapeutic tools I used, and using, as I feel it is beneficial and interesting. After all, the world of Yoga is not superficial, it is a deep, rich, internal world with an ancient theory and practice.
