Happy Body: Yoga from Head to Toe

Over two decades of practicing and teaching yoga, I discovered that certain movement combinations work every time to release tension in specific body areas, and simple yoga practices based on those movements give students reliable relief from their physical tensions. Of course, you can bedazzle those practices with more intricate postures, expand on them to target more precise areas, add additional layers to affect physiology or mental state – all those elements can make yoga practices more varied, interesting, and unique. But when you don’t have time, energy, or mental space to be too inventive, it’s good to know that there are reliable routines that you can fall back on.

Why do those routines work so consistently? Maybe it’s because they all follow a predictable pattern: they increase circulation to the surrounding tissues, release chronic muscular contraction, and restore balance to agonist/ antagonist relationships.

We put all these routines in one place to give you a full tour of your body and offer very specific movements that can help keep it free of tension. Check out Happy Body: Yoga from Head to Toe yoga series. This series consists of fifteen short foundational practices that cover each body area from neck to ankles. All the practices include foundational movements that are very effective for targeting specific body areas in a short period of time. You can use them as-is or expand on them as you see fit. The series also includes a collection of articles about each body area in printable PDF format and video summaries of the most important points you need to know when you work with specific body areas.

• 15 targeted yoga practices that are accessible to most practitioners,
