AQUARIUS RULED BODY PART
- The Lower Calf Muscles, Achilles Tendon and Peripheral Circulatory System~ These lower limbs are vital to maintaining balance and stability while doing activities like walking, running, and jumping.
- Holistic Tip:
- Lower limb health can be maintained by doing a variety of Yoga poses. One Yoga pose that I like is Utkata Konasana, pronounced (oot-KAH-tuh cone-AHS-uh-nuh) or known as the standing squat pose.
- Holistic Tip:
Here’s a basic guide to perform the pose:
A) Start standing with feet slightly wider than hip-width apart.
B) Turn your toes slightly outward.
C) Lower your hips down towards the ground, keeping your heels on the floor.
D) Bring your palms together at your chest in a prayer position.
E) Use your elbows to press your knees gently apart.
F)Keep your spine long and chest lifted.
G) Hold the pose, breathing deeply.
- The Ankles~The ankle lets you move your foot up and down, like pointing your toes or lifting your foot towards your shin. It also allows you to turn your foot inward or outward.
- Holistic Tip:
- Wearing the appropriate shoes goes a long way in supporting your ankles. Brands that specialize in athletic or outdoor footwear often offer options designed to provide stability and protect the ankles during various activities. When shopping, look for shoes that fit your natural foot pattern. If your shoes feel like your walking on air, you most likely found the perfect fit.
- Holistic Tip:
- Eye Retina~ The retina has cells that react to light, sending signals to your brain, which then creates the images you see.
- Holistic Tips:
- Diet rich in vitamins and minerals, especially those beneficial for eye health, such as vitamin A, C, and E, along with antioxidants.
- Wear sunglasses that block harmful UV rays to safeguard your eyes from sun damage.
- Take breaks from prolonged screen use to prevent digital eye strain. Follow the 20-20-20 rule mentioned earlier.
- Holistic Tips:
- Bioelectrical System~ The bioelectrical system in the body involves tiny electrical signals. It’s the body’s communication network, where electrical messages help control various functions, including movement and sensation.
- Holistic Tips:
- Negative moods can effect your bioelectrical system. Become self aware of your mood triggers by recognizing patterns and situations that commonly affect your mood negatively. If you’re struggling, don’t hesitate to reach out to mental health professionals or trusted individuals for support.
- Engage in regular physical activity to promote circulation and overall cardiovascular health, which can positively impact your bioelectrical system. Yoga or meditation can help you become aware of the energy in your body.
