Ancient Herbs The Energy Yoga routine has been matched with Bioglan Matcha Ginseng, a combination of two ancient herbs traditionally used for energy, alertness and performance.

3 Energy Imagine waking up and jumping out of bed with truck loads of energy that lasted the whole day through. Sadly for most of us that is a big leap for our creative abilities. Where is this mysterious energy? How do we cultivate it, keep it and use it to get the most out of life? There are many things that deplete our energy stores: Poor eating habits, sluggish digestion, adrenal fatigue, emotional reactivity, excess multitasking or lack of single pointed concentration on one task, being stuck in a sympathetic nervous system cortisol looping pattern, chest and mouth breathing, excess muscular tension, not sleeping before 11pm to support the appropriate organ cycles, too many dietary stimulants and the list goes on What is the best way to address these drains on our precious juju with yoga? We can use poses to squeeze into and release the kidneys and adrenals to activate the parasympathetic nervous system allowing for calm, centred energy throughout the day. These postures will do just that and can be performed either at the start or the end of the day to protect and cultivate our precious energy.

4 Energy (Kidney + Bladder poses- stimulate nervous system) Bladder Stretch 1. Hug knees to chest 2. Lift feet above chest and reach over toes to grip fingers just beneath balls of feet (or use a strap) 3. Take feet up towards ceiling, knees can stay as bent as you need 4. Keep feet above chest, squeeze deep belly to work lower back toward the ground, relax shoulders down, tuck chin towards chest Hold for 1 minute, then lower legs and rest for 3 breaths Sphinx w/ leg lift 1. On belly, place your elbows under shoulders with forearms & hands pressing into your mat, Relax shoulders down away from ears 2. Legs together then bend knees to point toes up to ceiling 3. Exhale, try to lift right leg a few cm off mat (feel the squeeze into that side of your lower back- squeezing into your kidneys) 4. Inhale lower leg Repeat with left leg Repeat x 4 slowly Rest on belly with legs out straight

5 Energy (Kidney + Bladder poses- stimulate nervous system) Cobra 1. On belly, hands next to chest, legs straight squeezing together 2. Inhale pull shoulders away from ears 3. Exhale squeeze into back muscles to lift chest off mat, then lightly press into hands to lift higher (keep legs together & elbows soft) Repeat x 3 slowly then hold up for 5 breaths Wide Leg Lift 1. Legs straight, with legs wider than mat. Keep legs slightly rolled in, elbows by waist w/ hands in fists 2. Inhale, flex feet back strong 3. Exhale, squeeze buttock off floor (feel a lift through butt, lower back and thighs- keep calves on floor) Inhale down, Exhale up x 8 slow Bring legs in closer to rest for 3 breaths Legs Up Wall 1. Swing legs up wall and lay on your back 2. The closer to the wall the deeper the stretch, the further away the gentler. Knees can be bent if its feeling too strong Hold for 1-3 minutes

6 Oriental herbs for Energy If you re looking for a boost of energy or want improve your physical performance or mental alertness, you may want to try Bioglan Matcha Ginseng. A world first combination of these two ingredients Matcha Green tea and Siberian Ginseng.
