3) What is your favourite yoga move?
My favourite yoga move is the one minute breath. Your life is counted in breaths not years. This breath will make you eternal. The average breath is 20 – 25 times a minute. In good health you breath 10-12 times a minute. If you practice the one minute breath you will have control of your mind.
Inhale 20 seconds
Suspend 20 seconds
Exhale 20 seconds
Or perhaps listening to or singing to the mul mantra which leads you do you true purpose or destiny.
