Mindful yoga exercises
This week's yoga exercises have a special focus on the hips and abdomen. hofter og underliv.
We approach yoga with the same mindset as when we do a body scan. We observe what we feel in our bodies, emotions, and mind without judgment and without fighting it. When you feel your body longing for a certain movement or stretch, maybe just a slight twist or a simple adjustment, follow your body to where it tells you it wants to be. Feel what is happening in your body - practice interoception - sensing the inner physical sensations in your body.
The way we do yoga in this course is not about "looking good" or being advanced. It is all about strengthening your body awareness, i.e. how it feels or senses in your body. Therefore, you're in the right position when it feels right for you!
Dress in comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely and use a yoga mat on the floor where you have plenty of space around you. You can start by watching the videos "No. 8: Savasana", "No. 9: Supine butterfly", "No. 11: Knee to chest", "No. 18: One-legged forward stretch", "No. 20: Spread leg stretch", and "No. 13: Universal pose" separately, or you can go directly to the complete yoga series called "Hips and abdomen".

We recommend that you continue with the body scan on a daily basis and supplement with yoga about 3-4 times a week.
Have a great time!
