Benefits of Aerial Yoga
Detoxify and revitalize your body!
Did you know?
Aerial Yoga practice, in inversion poses, helps the lymphatic system and cleanses toxins from the tissues, where it plays a vital role in the immune system. Inversions circulate lymph fluid, helping to drain toxins from the extremities and move them towards the lymph nodes. Inversions also promote faster lymph circulation through the nodes, the rate of blood purification and detoxification increases, helping to revitalize and maintain youth and beauty!
Improve brain function
Did you know?
Inversions increase blood flow to the brain, providing more oxygen and nutrients, improving brain function. This improves concentration, memory, observation and increases clarity of thought. According with the doctor. Robert Martin, author of 'The Gravity Guiding System, Turning the Aging Process Upside Down', the brain operates 14% more accurately when the brain is inverted, Inversion also helps move stagnant blood in the body. Forces the blood to move in a way it wouldn't when in a straight position. Inversion also gives the heart a break.
Improves blood circulation and polmunar function
✭ The circulatory system is made up of the heart, lungs and the entire system of vessels that feed oxygen and collect carbon dioxide and other waste from the cells. The arteries spread out into an intricate system of the heart, which pumps freshly oxygenated blood out of the lungs. Veins return blood to the heart and, unlike arteries, are a low-pressure system that relies on muscle movement or gravity to move blood. One-way valves at regular intervals prevent backwashing and keep fluids moving toward the heart in a system known as venous return. Turning upside down encourages venous return. Inversions also ensure healthier and more effective lung tissue. When standing or sitting upright, gravity pulls our fluids towards the earth, and the blood "perfuses" or saturates the lower lungs more completely. The lower lung tissue is therefore more compressed than the upper lungs. As a result, the air we inhale naturally moves into the open alveoli of the upper lungs. Unless we take a deep breath, we don't increase the air-to-blood ratio in the lower lungs. When we invert, blood perfuses the well-ventilated upper lobes of the lungs, thus ensuring more efficient oxygen-blood exchange and healthier lung tissue.
✭ The lymphatic system is responsible for waste removal, fluid balance and immune system response. Lymphatic vessels arise between the capillary beds of the circulatory system, but comprise a separate system that transports lost proteins, wastes, and extra fluid, filtering fluid back through the lymph nodes, and discharging what's left of the circulatory system into the subclavian veins under the collarbones. The lymphatic system is analogous to a sewage system; an intricate underground network. Lymph, like the blood that returns to your heart through your veins, relies on muscle movement and gravity to facilitate its return. As the lymphatic system is a closed pressure system and has one-way valves that keep the lymph moving towards the heart, when it is turned upside down, the entire lymphatic system is stimulated, thus strengthening your immune system. The circulation of lymph through the nodes increases the rate of purification and detoxification of the blood, helping to revitalize and maintain youth and beauty. It also helps to reduce swollen leg conditions by relieving pressure on varicose veins and hemorrhoids.
Improves the digestive system
✭ Changes in the body's gravitational pull also affect the abdominal organs. When inverted, the intestines move more freely and constipation is relieved. The pull of gravity on the organs, especially the intestines, creates weight on Organs abdominal organs and diaphragm, which encourages deep breathing, which gently massages the internal organs, thus encouraging elimination.
improves mood
✭ Flipping upside down can really make you feel better. Those who suffer from anxiety, depression, irritation, insomnia, mood swings and trauma are relieved by the brain's release of neurotransmitters such as serotonin, endorphins and oxytocin! It develops joy, courage and self-confidence.
Anti aging power
✭ Inversion will also help reverse the aging process by addressing the process of sagging skin, toning the muscles around your face and body, and preventing your skin from shrinking as you mature. Fresh blood and oxygen also circulates through the face and body, which increases our natural glow and improves any skin conditions such as acne.
relieves insomnia
✭ Inversions also help reduce insomnia. When reversing muscle tension decreases by 35%. When our muscles are relaxed, so are our minds and bodies.
Strengthens the whole body
✭ The instability that the fabric causes works the stabilizing muscles and provides an extra challenge that differs from practicing yoga on the floor. Arms, hands and abdomen are directly benefited.
Treats the physical, mental and spiritual!
✭ Helps to express yourself in a creative way. Improves motor coordination and spatial perception. It releases stress and relaxes as it is a fun activity. It challenges the mind to stay in the present. Improves focus and concentration. Improves physical and emotional balance. Dissolves emotional blocks by fighting phobias. Stretches the entire body. The fabric provides extra help in stretching under-worked areas of the body. With this we release tensions, stored memories and feel better as the joints and muscles become more relaxed and flexible.
