Yoga is the way to freedom.
By its constant practice, we can free ourselves
from fear, anguish and loneliness.
-Indra Devi
Sun salutation, surya namaskara, the prayer to salute the sun. A sequence that stretches your major muscles and cultivates "inner fire" and concentration. A sequence that can be done s-l-o-w-l-y or energetically. Move at the flow of your breath and you get a sense of meditation.
There are lots of different Sun salutations to perform. The most important is that you put your feet on your mat and find your own series of Sun salutations that fits your body. This sun sequence below I practice when I am tired, feel low or have a stiff and aching body.
