How many yoga postures are there? In some classical yoga books, there are as many as 84000 yoga postures, and this is only a rough idea

In the final analysis, it is enough for you to understand that yoga postures are divided into these seven categories

Sitting posture, forward bending, backward bending, side bending, torsion, balance and handstand

.

Because of the different yoga postures, the effects are different, and the feelings brought by different postures are also different, so today I would like to share with you these seven types of yoga

.

1

.

The common Yoga sitting postures are: simple sitting, auspicious sitting, perfect sitting, half lotus, full lotus, etc

.

Basically, some yoga meditation postures, sitting postures also need to maintain awareness, to relax, but not completely relax, the back should be straight

The common types of Yoga forward bending are: standing forward bending, strengthening side stretching, double angle, swan, baby, head touching knee and so on

.

In forward bending, you should pay attention to folding from the hip, really starting the core and keeping the extension of the spine

To be stable and calm in the forward position is to bring the power of concentration and inner submission

The common Yoga backward bending types are: wheel type, pigeon type, King dance type, locust type, bow type, camel type and so on

.

What we should pay attention to is that the front side of the whole body (chest, thigh, calf) should be opened at a high point, and the most important point is to open the chest and start the backward bending from the thoracic vertebrae

.

In the backward bending posture, we can open the chest well, say goodbye to negative emotions, improve the bad posture such as round shoulder and hunchback, and make us more confident

.

.

The common Yoga side bending postures are: triangle, side angle, bolt, sitting posture, side bending, etc

.

what we should pay attention to in the side bending postures is to start the leg strength, center the hip, and extend the chest well

.

.

6

.

The common inverted three-dimensional yoga postures of handstand type are: shoulder handstand, head handstand, elbow handstand, hand handstand, etc

.

the inverted three-dimensional yoga postures should pay attention to: first of all, arm, abdomen, shoulder and other forces are very important, so that you can keep your body stable without effort, and squeeze to the cervical spine

.

Handstand is the king of postures

.

We all know its advantages, such as letting blood flow back, nourishing facial skin and delaying aging

.

.

The common yoga balance postures of balance class are: tree type, Eagle type, warrior three type, cross balance type, half moon type and so on

When your foundation is stable, the latter posture can be done well

.

Although there are many yoga postures, you can do it by mastering these seven categories: building a foundation, bending forward, creating a space, bending backward, opening your heart, bending sideways, twisting your waist to the same length, standing upside down in the middle of your pelvis, supporting balance with confidence, elegant and stable yoga.
