Instructions

Chandra Namaskar (Moon Salutation) depicts the Moon (Ida Nadi) or the feminine side of the energy in the human body. Since the Moon is cooling and soothing, this sequence can be introduced to bring down the energies while also balancing them. 𝓦𝓱𝓮𝓷 𝓽𝓸 𝓭𝓸 Chandra Namaskar is done at the end of the yoga practice to cool the body. During the new moon, the full moon, and the waning moon (the 14 days after a full moon)𝓦𝓱𝓸 𝓼𝓱𝓸𝓾𝓵𝓭 𝓭𝓸 It’s very good for menstruating women Women with menstrual health issues Anyone looking to calm down!𝓢𝓸𝓶𝓮 𝓲𝓶𝓹𝓸𝓻𝓽𝓪𝓷𝓽 𝓹𝓸𝓲𝓷𝓽𝓼- It’s best done at night when the moon is visible. Unlike Surya Namaskar Chandra Namaskar starts with the left side of the body (Ida Nadi). Unlike sun salutations, where we are encouraged to hold each pose for a longer time, with moon salutations, poses flow into each other without much hold in each position.Video @Outfi @Mat @#chandranamaskar #moonsalutation #moonsalutations #yogaformenstruation #traditionalyoga #hathayoga
