Detoxify and Energize Your Whole Body with MyYogaWorks.com

MyYogaWorks launches a new Detox Journey series to its online yoga class service.  These classes will help you detoxify and energize your body in a series of short but effective sequences. These seven classes will introduce you to the detoxifying effects of yoga that are created by focusing on heat building and twisting poses.  

Each of the online yoga classes in this series feature deep twists to help facilitate the removal of waste from the body, which many other forms of vigorous exercise are not able to reach. In addition sun salutations and flowing movements are utilized to help sweat out toxins.

Yoga breathing, called ujjayi breath, also plays an important role in promoting detoxification. Poor breathing habits and stress often leads to our lungs not inflating fully which can lead to a clenched diaphragm.   This means that we do not breathe in as much oxygen as we need and do not exhale all of the carbon dioxide. 

The online detox yoga series from MyYogaWorks.com will help you clear out carbon dioxide from the lung tissue and stimulate the organs of digestion. Over time this will help retrain your diaphragm to move more freely and eventually your lungs will fill and empty completely with every breath on the yoga mat or off.

If you are new to yoga, try Quick Beginners Detox with Melanie Lora Meltzer. If you are feeling a little run down, try the Energizing Detox, and if you need a longer, more advanced practice try Well Rounded Deep Detox with Jesse Schein.

You can try MyYogaWorks free for 14 days. After the trial period, it is only $15 a month to practice with the highly trained and certified teachers of YogaWorks.
