Beat the Monday Morning blues with SAVY Yoga!
Continuous yoga practice helps fight your blues as well as to explore and direct life in a better way. Time invested in practicing these yoga poses daily will set your spirits high for a lifetime.
Here are some yoga poses to beat the Monday morning blues.
Viparita Karani (Legs up the wall pose): Lie down on the floor and raise legs at vertical, against a wall. Without the use of a wall support this posture looks a little like supported shoulder stand. This posture helps the mind to be in present moment which helps in coming out of foul moods and blues.
Virbhadrasana I (Warrior I): It is essentially a balancing pose which also expands the chest region and shoulders. It is a very good posture to relieve stress. Expanding chest region brings the sense of happiness, which ultimately takes you out of the gloom. Warrior II and Warrior III also achieve the same purpose.
Adho Mukh Svanasana (downward facing dog pose): This posture works as an anti-depressant and is one of the poses in traditional sun salutation. It also frees sciatic nerve. This pose supports your head and forces you to be in present moment by engaging you on all four limbs.
Parsarita Padottanasana (Wide legged forward bend): This posture plays a vital role in calming the brain. It brings a feeling of support and lets you feel free at the same time when you feel lonely.
Salamba Shirshasan (Supported Head stand): Also called the King of Yoga Poses, this is an inversion posture, where in with the support of your hands, you stand on your head upside down. This posture requires a lot of focus hence keeping the mind in present moment. It’s a therapeutic posture for mild depression and insomnia. It also calms the mind and relieves the stress.
Salamba Sarvangasamasana (Supported Shoulder Stand): It is an inverted pose, and it engages all parts of the body. With the support of the shoulders the entire body from the torso is taken upwards and is balanced straight. This posture relieves stress and depression.
Shalabhasana (Locust Pose): This pose is very interesting and challenging pose. It helps in relieving stress and uplifts your mood instantly.
Chakrasana (Wheel Pose): This is a chest opener pose. Chest opener poses helps in relieving stress, and heart is flooded with space and light, making us feel better. All we have to do is just sit the opposite way we sit when we are sad – shoulders square, chest expanded, head held high.
Practice these poses regularly.
Monday – Yoga Relevance and History
Monday is dedicated to Lord Shiva, the Adi Yogi or the First Yogi, who gave the gift of Yoga to humanity. On this day, he is worshipped along with his consort goddess Parvati. Though, of course, as is the custom, Lord Ganesha is venerated right at the beginning of the worship. Devotees also listen to Shiva Bhajans on this day.
Ritual:
The ‘Somvar Vrat’ or Monday fast is observed from sunrise till sunset and the devotee partakes of the food only after saying his evening prayer. Fasting on Mondays in the month of Shravan is considered even more auspicious. Hindus believe that observing a fast or ‘upvaas’ on Mondays will satisfy Lord Shiva who will grant them wisdom and fulfill all their desires. In some places, unmarried girls and spinsters keep fast to be blessed with an ideal husband.
Folklore:
This tradition goes back to Hindu mythology, though the myths vary greatly from region to region. One popular one is that there lived a very poor Brahmin who started devoting his Mondays to fasting and worshipping Lord Shiva. After a period of time, the Lord was satisfied with his devotion and blessed him with wealth. Another lore speaks of a rich merchant who begets a son after a prolonged wait but the child dies. It is only with the grace of Lord Shiva and Parvati that the son is reborn. A third story is describes a game of dice played between Shiva and Parvati that makes Monday important for Shiva.
