Yoga Excercise The tree.

Press the foot against the inside of the opposite thigh, engage the leg and buttock muscles. The less proficient can place the foot against the inside of the knee or calf or place the sole of the right foot on the arch of the left foot. Raise the arms and push the palms together. Stay in this position for five to ten long breaths. This asymmetric basic posture standing on one leg trains the active muscles of the legs, feet and buttocks. It promotes balance, invigorates and strengthens. The leg will often want to slip away to begin with. Don’t worry about it and leave it where it’s comfortable. The more you tension you put on the standing leg and the firmer the pressure of the angled leg becomes, the better the tree works. This also takes a little practice. Duration: Hold for at least 15 seconds, then change to the other leg.

Function / Effect: Stimulates the metabolism, improves the sense of balance, firms the whole body, stabilises and harmonizes

Feel Good tip - Mindfulness exercise: eat mindfully
Breakfast or lunch is also good for training mindfulness. Look inside before the meal: are you hungry or peckish? In what mood do you sit down at the table? Look at your food, how it looks and how it is made up. Then focus on the process itself, smell your food, watch attentively how you bring your food to your mouth, what it feels like, how it tastes. Chew consciously and slowly. Be careful at least for the first five bites of your meal. When you're finished eating, feel inside your body: Are you full? Are you feeling satisfied?
