The butterfly is so beautiful! 2 Yoga Tips to Balance Endocrine

Have you been feeling sleep depriv, menstrual irregularities, dull complexion, and acne lately? Be careful of endocrine disorders, which can accelerate the aging of body functions and cause illness in the long run! Is it troublesome to regulate the endocrine system? The yoga teacher demonstrated two simple "butterfly stretching exercises", which can not only increase the energy of the uterus and ovaries and balance endocrine function, but also promote metabolism and enhance the effect of body shaping, making women more beautiful in body, mind and spirit.

The endocrine system dominates women's health and beauty. Doing more butterfly yoga poses in daily life can help promote physical, mental and spiritual health.

Tang Youxin, a well-known yoga coach, said that endocrine system has a great indicative significance for women's health. Simple yoga exercises can protect the functions of the uterus and reproductive system, improve women's menstrual disorders or menstrual discomfort, and promote normal endocrine secretion, thereby achieving the effect of body and skin care.

First move: Butterfly pose

The preparatory movement for the butterfly pose is to sit in a posture with knees open, soles of feet facing each other, hands supported on the ground behind you, and spine straightened. You can feel the pelvic cavity being gently stretched. Teacher Tang Youxin said that before hip abduction, students should do a proper warm-up. Depending on the flexibility of their own muscles and bones, they can slowly press down their knees. After they feel the muscles adapt to the intensity of the stretching, their knees can imitate the fluttering posture of a butterfly and dance slowly up and down, thereby warming the uterus and regulating the endocrine system.

Some people have poor flexibility and their pelvic cavity and knees are too high, but that's okay, because the main purpose of the butterfly yoga exercise is to relax the hip joints and increase the stretching space and elasticity of the pelvic floor muscles. The height of the pelvic cavity does not affect fertility.

After the butterfly pose yoga exercise, maintain the extreme posture with knees open and soles of feet facing each other, gently push the knee on the same side with your right hand, support the ground with your left hand, stretch your spine, twist your upper body to the left and back, stay for 1 to 2 deep breaths, then switch sides. Rotate left and right 4 times each, then slowly bring your feet back to the cross-legged position.

When performing the "Split Leg Stretch", you should flex and extend your legs according to your personal flexibility and do not force yourself to avoid sports injuries. (Photography by Lai Yizhou)

Step 2: Split Leg Stretch

The split-leg stretch is an enhanced version of the butterfly pose. Students sit and imitate the "splits" posture to open their legs to the limit of stretching, support the ground with their hands behind them, and slowly increase the range of motion of their legs to fully stretch their leg muscles. Teacher Tang Youxin said that this thigh stretching exercise can stimulate and massage the spleen, liver, and kidney meridians on the inside of the foot, thereby regulating the corresponding uterus and ovaries. But the movements must be gradual and coordinated with breathing exercises.

The split-leg stretch can be upgraded to include forward bending and twisting of the torso. (Photography by Lai Yizhou)

If your knees feel too tight or even painful when you stretch your legs, you can bend your knees slightly to prevent the ligaments from being over-stretched and injured. If you have good flexibility, you can lean your body forward, extend your knees, and even bend over and make circles in coordination with your breathing, 6 circles on each side, to stimulate the movement of the pelvic cavity. Just 5 minutes a day can fully stretch the inner thighs and hip joints, help metabolize toxins in the body, facilitate menstruation, and balance the endocrine system.

People with good flexibility can try the "splits" posture plus waist bending movements to strengthen leg muscle training. (Photography by Lai Yizhou)
