Apana Vayu
Yoga Sequence

Practice for stability and letting go

Apana Vayu, the energy flow directed downward and outward, stands for stability, grounding and the ability to let go. This sequence focuses on asanas that specifically activate and strengthen this energy flow.

Whether you practice the asanas isolated and individually or create a flowing transition from them is up to you.
