The Yogic Advent Calendar
A couple of years ago I was lucky enough to live together with my close friend Robyn Banaki and apart from many other things December became the most magical time with her. We would push loving kindness to the limit, treat each other with little surprises, create rhymes out of our advent calendars and drink literally litres of tea together laughing under our kitchen table.
Inspired by that feeling of acting selflessly and making someone else’s day just that little bit more special I created a Yogic Advent Calendar for December 2017 free of charge for everyone! It’s a collection of easy, accessible and soothing poses – the little kindness you can give yourself every day until Christmas.
The only thing you have to do is following me on instagram, facebook or check my website for daily advent asana!
Use #jkadvent2017 and tag me for sharing your pictures of the poses on instagram and facebook, if you like!
With Love,
Julia

Running a lot? This is your pose to give your legs a good stretch – and it is also a preparatory pose for splits. Sit with your pelvis on your back heel, have your back toes tucked under, so you’re also opening up the sole of your back foot. Use your hands for support, aim for a long spine rather than bringing your head down to the leg, make sure your front foot is flexed and pointing upwards in alignment with your knee. Only go to a place where your can breathe deeply, shift your awareness into the back of your front leg, be fully there, give it all your attention.
Secklisch vell? Das isch demfall Dini Position zum d Bei usdehne – und es isch au en vorbereitendi Üebig für de Spagat. Sitz mitem Becki uf de hintere Färse, bhalt die hintere Zeche ufgstellt, damit au d Fuesssohle zuesätzlich öffnisch. Bruch d Händ zur Unterstützig, schaff ehnder anere lange Wiirbelsüüli, als dass de Chopf ufem Bei ablegge wetsch, flex de vorderi Fuess und kontrollier öb d Zeche und d Chnüü beidi i die gliich Richtig zeiged. Gang nur so wiit, dass no tüüf schnuufe chasch, sink mitem Bewusstsii i d Untersiite vom vordere Bei, bis ganz dete, mit all Dinere Uufmerksamkeit.
