Back stretches 2
On your hands and knees arch your back upwards to stretch your back muscles. Do this 10-20 times to loosen your back and stomach muscles.

Stand up and do bends at the waist touching your hands to the floor. This will not only stretch your back muscles, but also will stretch your leg muscles. Do this at least 20 times slowly.

Yoga is one of the oldest spiritual paths in the world, dating back to India around 400 BCE. Yoga coincides with many of the religious practices of Asia. Hinduism is the most recognized religion where yoga is an intricate part of the religions way of thought. In these cultures, yoga is a vehicle for the mind to connect with the spiritual realm. Outside of India today, yoga is used primarily to improve one’s health and well being.

For a beginner, yoga can be very intimidating. The strange shapes the body is contorted to may look uncomfortable, even a risk for possible injury. Many think that one must give up many of life’s pleasures to partake in yoga, but this simply isn’t true. The form of Hatha yoga is used mostly here in the western hemisphere. It uses a combination of asana postures and pranayama breathing techniques. Hatha yoga is great for beginners because you do not have to follow a specific diet or restrict yourself in any other way, like other advanced forms of yoga. The key is to do a regular routine of exercising, but not over do it. There is a thing as TOO MUCH! It is also important to remember that changes do not happen overnight. For most people, they do not start to see improvement in their health for nearly three months.

Why should a beginner want to practice Hatha yoga?

There are many benefits of this form of yoga. It promotes not only a healthier looking you, but a calmer mind. Your attention span will increase with practice, making daily activities easier to manage. You will learn how to channel your energy so that you do not waste your energy on the negative and will have stress relief and more enthusiasm for life in general. It is also a low impact exercise that will not put stain on your body or heart. Another great perk is that it improves the quality of your sleep.

Many gyms offer classes for beginners. Sometimes learning the postures in groups helps you connect more with the ideals that yoga offers. But, if joining a class isn’t an option for you, there are many great DVDs, how-to books and YouTube has an abundant cache of instructional yoga videos. There are so many resources out there that anyone can become a beginner of Hatha yoga in no time!
