Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Ellen, I'll take your word for it that you are kapha. Sometimes other doshas can get out of balance and cause what appears to be a kapha dosha. these other people can help you with that. I teach Kundalini Yoga so I am much more versed in Yoga. Assuming you are kapha, you should do more aerobic things. Join a soccer league or play other sports. You said you walk. Do you brisk walk? by that I mean walk with a long fast gait, move you hips with each step and move your arms parallel with the ground going bothforward and backwards with each step. It is like amovement a cross country skier would make with their arms without the poles.Push off with the toes. Walk very fast. Also have your yoga instructor to show you how to do "breath of fire" or "bellows breath". Do this after doing the neti pot as Dr. Bhate indicated. This clears out the channels. GB Okay- my symptoms would be that I just don't feel good. I am not in a lot of pain- the usual aches and pains after waking the morning- but they leave in about 5 minutes or so, I feel I have no energy, but enough to get me thru the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 I did not address the aches yet. Do neck rolls, cat and cow for the neck pain. Do leg raises or situps for energy. Raise legs to 90 degrees and lower legs to floor and keep repeating for no more than 3 min. Before you get up in the morning and at various times throughout the day, take you thumbs with nail side to the skin, take thumb and insert it (eyes closed of course) in upper part of eyesocket between skull and eyelid.It is towards the inside of the ey and there is a little notch there. It will feel weird. That point helps prevent headaches.
