Directional Movement of the Arms
A breath-synchronised arm movement that frees the shoulders, wrists and hands.
When synchronised with breath, the movement aids venous return to the heart and improves coordination across the many muscles of the upper limb.
What Directional Movement of the Arms is for
- Improves proprioception and coordination of the upper limbs
- Decreases stiffness in the joints and improves flexibility
- Aids venous return to the heart and, with breath, strengthens it
- Speeds recovery and healing after hand, wrist or elbow injuries
Please note
- Movements must be synchronised with the breath as instructed, otherwise it may affect the heart.
- Those with wrist or elbow replacements should consult a doctor first.
- Delay the practice over a new fracture until it has healed.
These are powerful yogic practices for overall wellbeing, not a substitute for medical care. If you have a serious or acute health condition, a recent injury or surgery, or are pregnant, please consult your doctor first and speak with the teacher before registering. Always practise under a qualified teacher's guidance, within your own comfort, as instructed.
