BODY<br />
THE PLOUGH<br />
Halasana<br />
As well as stimulating and balancing the functions of the thyroid<br />
gland and releasing tension in the back, neck and shoulders, this<br />
posture stimulates vishuddhi (the throat chakra) which deals with<br />
creativity and expression.<br />
Begin lying on your back. Place your hands beside your hips<br />
and roll your knees in towards your forehead and then place your<br />
hands onto your lower back for support. Direct your toes towards<br />
the floor, when you are ready interlink your fingers. Lift your chin<br />
a little so as not to compress the back of the neck. Picture a light<br />
blue disc spinning in front of your throat.<br />
