The Pawanmuktasana series of exercises was developed by Swami Satyananda Saraswati to release stagnant energy in the body and therefore create a smooth flow of energy. In this course you will understand more about this little-known series of yoga exercises.
Satyananda believed these to be one of the most important groups of practices, and that if you do all three series very regularly, there will be significant reduction in chronic pain.
I have created videos for you to explain Pawanmuktasana Series One. Each exercise has its own video, plus there is also a full 1 hour class which incorporates them all.
The gentle movements of Pawanmuktasana stimulate the natural healing processes:
Created especially for people suffering from rheumatic arthritis and other joint problems
Suitable for those who are recommended to avoid vigorous exercise.
To be practised by anyone: beginner or advanced, young or elderly.
Pawanmuktasana movement promote circulation of prana through all the Nadis (energy channels)
Help develop awareness of the body and its movements
As much as a mental practice as a physical one - Yoga raises the level of consciousness and establishes a better understanding between the mind and the body.
