SEEING THE WORLD UPSIDE-DOWN WITH MY RECOMMENDED YOGA POSE

How do you like to see the world upside-down?
Well, you can do that with my favourite and recommended yoga asana which I practise daily without fail - its THE FORWARD EXTENSION LEGS WIDE APART
THE FUN SIDE
I personally find it very interesting, fun  and in fact natural like a newborn baby to view images - trees, buildings, people etc.. from a different angle, watching the world go by upside down!!  Try it and you will know what I mean.
Why like a baby?  Did you know that newborn babies see  the world upside-down?  They begin to focus only about 2 months and over a period of 8 months they learn to turn the images right-side up.
And...I am sure you do know that the images formed on your retina are upside-down too.  Your brain, the brilliant and fantastic tool , then works hard to make sure you see the images right-side up.

THE SERIOUS SIDE
Forward extension legs wide apart has a great effect on your body, it helps to improve your posture and circulation. What I normally do is after the practise of this asana I would lightly pat  my face sort of massaging it. This helps to firm and tone up the facial muscles , giving the FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH!!
So why wait, get cracking and make it your  habit to incorporate this pose in your daily yoga practice to look a few years younger!!

I had a good laugh when I heard this reply from a cheeky guy who replied on my topic of seeing the world upside-down......

"I see upside down.....its great for looking up skirts!"  LOL

A YOGA POSE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY!
