Squatting is one of the most important poses for the human body so here is more about it.
☉We used to squat while cooking, hunting, working in the field and in labour.
☉Look at children, even babies, they do it naturally.
☉Your body is actually designed to eliminate by squatting. If you want better bowel movements squat, don’t sit!
☉It opens your hip flexor muscles which, when tight, can lead to lower back pain.
It strengthens your tendons, bones, and ligaments around the leg muscles.
☉Squatting can be a mentally, very grounding pose.
If it’s a struggle for you, place a rolled yoga mat or even a block under your heels. If you are still challenged hold into a table or a chair while squatting, breathe slowly and deeply.
Start with 20 seconds and go up slowly to 2 minutes.
With time you can even squat on the loo to improve your elimination, which as a result will support your metabolism.
The frog kriya is very powerful, especially if you struggle with insomnia.
