“This standing posture is often part
of a Sun Saluation and opens the
chest, armpits and ribcage allowing
us to expand our breath. Chair Pose
can be great for developing focus
and concentration.”
360 ̊ Yoga (Page 42)“Anything you picture vividly in your
mind’s eye with repetition, and with an
authentic emotion, will be manifested
and become a reality for you. Your
sub-conscious mind will draw you to
what it understands your destiny to be.”
Manifest your dreams (Page 86)
“Cruelty-free cosmetics and skincare
products are aligned with many of
yoga’s core values, including the
central tenet of ahimsa, or non-
harming...so let’s celebrate the rise
and rise of ethical beauty.”
