We all have our own likings and preferences, and like everything else you may have your favorite Yoga pose too, something you prefer above all others, some may like a rigorous stretching down the spine while others may prefer to lie peacefully in a  corpse pose. But did you know it also tells about your state of mind and mood? Surprised?

Well yes, may be today you look forward to an intense challenging work out and tomorrow you just want a slow bit spiritually calming session. Unfold the mystery and see what your Yoga pose tells about your personality!!

As you balance on one leg, this pose requires a lot of inner and outer strength; it’s not as easy as it looks. However, if you like this pose then you are competitive with yourself, you like testing your limits, yet you are grounded. To others you seem to be calm and composed, standing gracefully in this pose, yet inside you know that how much effort you have put in to achieve that grace and calm that radiated from your personality!
Keep up the good work, you are a real charmer!

If you prefer this pose, you are a spiritual person, mental peace is above all for you and you are well connected with your inner self. You are competitive person who knows how to achieve success by being patient, quiet and poised. You don’t rush things and you see good in others. Well, continue being so well connected with your higher self; you have what it takes to lead a healthy holistic life.

This pose is known to improve the overall posture and flexibility of a human body. If you prefer this pose, you are craving to release stress, anxiety and negative emotions that are bottled up inside, as hips release the negative feelings and energy from your system since stress, tension and anxiety are often stored there.
You value relationships, so continue to enjoy this pose while many others simply shy away, it’s better to release negativity and anxiety by practicing this pose rather than simply exploding and  venting out on our colleagues, and near and dear ones!

It is indeed a challenging pose, definitely not so easy. If this is your pick then you are different from the crowd, you seek a challenging, adventurous life, and you know how to do that. You have an out of the box thinking and you see the world with a different perspective. You know how to calm and distress with a little adventure and a lot of challenges.


No matter what your favorite pose is, keep moving, keep stretching and relaxing for a better healthier and happier you.
