SHAVASANA the corpse pose

As you do heavier yoga poses you overexert the resources your body is holding inside because yoga in general is excessively heating up your internal bodily tissues and invisible to you normally structures,those that make you what you are on the inside and making you your own self;not to the point,where it isnt able to do the poses,yet close to this critical time moment where it finally can NOT follow your brainy direction,and so the body IS heavily overworking during yoga,even as visibly you seem to perform not so many actions,still you always feel extremely tired after it.The longer had you been holding to each of yoga poses the better are the final results indeed;the larger profit had been just obtained from it,so try to hold on to each pose till either the very feeling of real exhaustion or else till heavy breathing appears.I try to hold on to each pose i do for AS long as i can hold on to it with no exhaustion,which is always seen clerarly as you find yourself suddenly having heavy/shallow breathing-THE definite sign that this particular pose IS better left alone for a break.You may do poses exactly the way you like them the most indeed;this simple attitude IS perfect for beginners in yoga;this particular attitude of holding on to a pose till completely wasted off by it is only useful as you are in a promoted/advanced state of a well functioning yoga practitioner.Because why stopping practising a perfectly functioning pose and instead not to hold on to it as it keeps then HITTING this BODY large scale,increasing all along the body output of the entire yoga practise session?But no matter whether you are a beginner or are you a master of yoga(even more importantly then indeed),the corpse pose Shavasana MUST be playing the role of this ''the other pole'' to intensive exertions you do while doing poses.In fact in yoga your INTERNAL life processes are heavily overworking;even as they arent visible from the outside,your exhaustion/heavy breathing after it and then even aches(these follow the tiredness suit)IS the sign that it is time for a break;Shavasana gives you enough rest simply FASTER than other ways to relax do.Just to give you an approximate estimation of what EXACTLY is overworking inside of you as you practise yoga(these things arent visible and are even rarely felt inside of you)i will say that your BLOOD this lowest and most important homeostasis level is strongly activizing its internal activity during yoga(it isnt what other workouts are able to give you though),to maybe the 3 times size of what that very blood had been JUST before yoga practising.The blood is this level/bodily mechanism that finally CAN add enough energy to the heavily working bodily parts;the volumes of the blood activity then rise to maybe thrice(a personal estimation that can be NOT correct)of what it performs in normal condition of,say,sitting by a table and reading a book.And this is only the most inner part of what IS going on inside of you as you practise yoga;later get also activized other bodily parts like soft tissues,muscles etc.As a general rule,whenever did you overstretch your resources into a hard condition for your own self,you must later also overstretch the according resting/relaxation period your body will be having JUST to successfully return to the older condition it did have before the start of the exercise that took THAT much power from it,and yoga IS taking from you too much power and exertion.If not getting enough rest the body cannot successfully proceed on with life because its normal life cycle definitely requires BOTH work and rest,each of the 2 rewinding the other constantly.Also here is good the example of a unstable rough sea surface during a storm with waves upon it;in fact the life of a human being IS such a wavy ocean surface with BOTH ups to an amazingly higher level AND downs to a lower than the average 1 too.When you had been just practising yoga poses your ''wave'' of physical activity had been growing constantly;the levels of your body work increasing;then as you get tired and experience aches finally(the top of the cycle of most anything and not only yoga exercising but more too)you start the going down process with no more growing up/boosting internally physically but ''falling down'' already while making Shavasana pose.Yoga practise is EXACTLY like a stormy unstable sea surface;and after a rise of a wave always later comes its fall,also to amazingly low levels(when you are like asleep during Shavasana),and BOTH the rising as you do a pose and the falling down as you relax in shavasana are necessary for the correct cycle going on.An incorrect cycle of yoga(other activities in fact as well)simply will NOT bring you large profits and your yoga practising will not add you what yoga is performed for,and that is INCREASE of your BODILY POWERs and capacities.Yoga is AS much an art and a successful event ONLY if you manage it correctly as most every other life activities' branch.Just to add to the work it did have this relaxation period is existing this dead body pose Shavasana,where your exertion/exercise,simply speaking,is 0;this 0 returns you to normalcy faster than the rest can;so never neglect to finish your poses with enough rest in this 0 pose,the pose of the dead body.Most books recommend it as THE final part of each pose practised;and only for better masters over yoga use of this dead body pose is neglectable(not necessary)if they do NOT feel enough tiredness to perform it afterwards.I personally easily avoid doing the pose after each heavy pose i just did,especially as i just started to practise poses;and use it only when/if well tired;this generally happens during the last stages of my yoga practise.Once in a while i actually FAILED to perform this corpse by mistake;the results always are weird disorientation in the brain,stiffness and exhaustion/incorrect physical performance in the body parts i would be better off without.This corpse pose is also the best for your night sleeping period as the body rests in it better potentially than it does otherwise;the occasions,in which i can fall asleep in the corpse pose i find the best for nighttime sleeping,just that the body isnt always THIS tired as to require ONLY the corpse position.If my day had been somewhat harder than it normally is,i accordingly add to my night sleep additional time,which is almost always 5 hours,additional 30 minutes,and then sleep already 5.5 hours a night,which an addition IS enough for most every additional exhaustion as i find it.Less than 5 hours of night sleep i find NOT enough for ANY level of easiness of a day just passed as the brain,which DOES participate in the body's actions anyways,ALSO gets tired of the actions and IT then DOES require enough rest.AS laying in shavasana you are to remain in this position for like 5 minutes as the authoritant yoga books say;for some and more effective yogis the time is less than that as they regain their power faster;it is a normal thing to be a better or a worse yogi.I suppose that the very end of any yoga session(the time you spend doing poses)is better done in Shavasana with no blankets inbetween your body and the stone floor;as most books(me too)recommend use of a thin blanket inbetween your body and the stone floor under it,they do not intend more exercising of the heart the way i personally use;and the end of a yoga session in my case is the final dissolution of Kundalini powers(the heart is its strongest piece)as no blankets are inbetween stone and the body.Muscles under the skin are made so as to gradually constrict themselves just the way a fat worm in an apple can be seen changing forms constantly;thats JUST how any healthy body is acvting on the insides;and when this fat worm(reminding a healthy body muscles again)is upon a purely stone floor it will die off as it holds on to it NOT allowing the Kundalini worm inside to freely stretch and constrict.The wasted in this way heart IS the sign that 1 needs to leave yoga and end his yoga session;but in a healthy/untired by yoga individual such a natural Kundalini "death" will not come soon at all;only well tired of yoga body will achieve this FINAL effect as it ONLY is good by the very end of a yoga session;i personally find this end of a session more recommendable.Even then the body must be taken off the floor AS soon as the heart is finally agonizing with constrictions/death convulsions and is heaving too heavily;in my case it happens when i am well tired of yoga;normal and untired body wont give this effect and its use actually additionally strengtens the heart and Kundalini the internal bodily muscular system.
