Das große Yoga-Buch für die Wirbelsäule

Individualisiertes Yoga - denn jeder Körper ist einzigartigFür eine gesunde und entspannte Yogaerfahrung ist die korrekte Ausrichtung von essenzieller Bedeutung. Dabei spielt die individuelle Anatomie eine Schlüsselrolle, denn aufgrund der Unterschiede im menschlichen Körperbau sowie potenzieller Bewegungseinschränkungen können Yogapositionen nicht bei jedem Trainierenden gleich aussehen. Erst wenn Sie Ihre eigene Anatomie kennen, können Sie Ihre Yogapraxis optimal an diese anpassen. Wie das geht, zeigt Ihnen der erfahrene Yogalehrer und Buchautor Bernie Clark.Wie beeinflusst die Eigenheit Ihres Körpers Ihre Bewegungsmöglichkeiten? Wie sind menschliche Gewebe beschaffen und auf welche Weise können sie einschränken? Welche Form und Funktion haben Hüft-, Knie- und Fußgelenke und wie wirkt sich das auf Ihre Bewegungen aus? Was hemmt Sie beim Yoga? Bernie Clark gibt Ihnen auf all diese Fragen Antwort und hilft Ihnen mit umfassenden Informationen und nützlichen Tipps dabei, Ihren Körper verstehen zu lernen und so Ihr perfektes Yoga zu finden!

"More important than knowing what kind of pose the student is doing is knowing what kind of student is doing the pose."<BR><BR>There is a revolution occurring in yoga today around the alignment paradigm. The concept of one and only one ideal alignment for each yoga posture, taught through an aesthetic focus on how the student looks in the pose, is being replaced by a functional approach that acknowledges not only the intention of the posture but each student’s unique biology and biography. In parallel, the paradigm of focusing on the muscles as the limiters and causal agents of movement is being replaced by a broader understanding. The role of fascia is being recognized and incorporated into yoga classes and trainings. Beyond muscles and fascia, there is a wide spectrum of causes for and resistance to motion, ranging from various sources of tension to the qualities of compression.<BR>Your Body, Your Yoga goes beyond any prior yoga anatomy book available. It looks not only at the body’s unique anatomical structures and what this means to everyone’s individual range of motion, but also examines the physiological sources of restrictions to movement. Two volumes are provided in this book: Volume 1 raises a new mantra to be used in every yoga posture: What Stops Me? The answers presented run through a spectrum, beginning with a variety of tensile resistance to three kinds of compressive resistance. Examined is the nature of muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments, joint capsules, bones and our extracellular matrix and their contribution to mobility. The shape of these structures also defines our individual, ultimate range of movement, which means that not every body can do every yoga posture. The reader will discover where his or her limits lie, which dictates which alignment cues will work best, and which ones should be abandoned. Volume 2 will take these principles and apply them to the lower body, examining the hip joint, the knee, ankle and foot, and will present how your unique variations in these joints will show up in your yoga practice.<BR>

One big difference noticed by students of Yin Yoga is the long-held, passive nature of the posture, which gives time for a deeper journey to unfold, a journey into the meditative aspects of yoga, a bridge to living life mindfully.<BR><BR>The second edition includes—a more functional approach to the practice of yoga, emphasizing the concept of targeted areas; the importance of stress in reducing fragility and building antifragility; understanding the nature of creep and the importance of counterposes, with a revised list of effective counterpostures; many new photographs of the postures and their variations for different body types; a more current overview of the physiology of tissues and the energy body reflecting new understanding in the science of fascia and cellular signaling; and many other enhancements.<BR><BR>As in the first edition, the book presents comprehensive information on how to do the practice, including how to get into and out of the pose, contraindications and warnings for those who may have trouble with particular aspects of the posture, and other important information. Why we do the practice is discussed by looking at its benefits in three main sections: the physiological, energetic and mental/emotional benefits.<BR><BR><BR>
