The changes in sun’s activity happen in a period of approximately 12 years. The sequence of 12 flowing asanas with regulated breathing is called Surya Namaskar in Sanskrit and Sun Salutation in English. The sun is the life source that provides light, warmth and energy for all living species on Earth. There is sun in everything we eat, drink and breathe. The repetitive cyclic movement of the solar system generates stability for life to happen. Surya Namaskar is repetitive in nature allowing the yogi to experience steadiness, balance and openness in life. For thousands of years, Indians have been practicing Sun Salutation in the morning in sync with the sunrise. The ancient yogi masters said that the solar plexus, centrally located in the body behind the navel point is connected with the sun. Thus practicing Surya Namaskar activates the sun within our body, expands the size of the solar plexus enhancing creativity, intuition, focus, clarity, balance and calmness. Practicing regularly Surya Namaskar improves the physical, mental and spiritual health.
All the organs are refreshed through flexions and extensions of the spine, increasing vitality and dissolving stress.

A simple recipe to lighten your day:

1. Tune with the cycle of the sun.
2. Flow through a repetition of 5 sequences.
3. Experience a fantastic flow of energy through the body, refreshing the organs, purifying the blood and clarifying the mind.
