7 Eagle Pose Themes
[br]
Grounded by limitation: Not allowing the illusion of limitation to ground us in our flight.
[br]
Don't judge a book by its cover: in spite of its enormous size, the eagle still takes flight, seemingly effortlessly.
[br]
Conserve resources (work smarter, not harder): Eagles are opportunistic. They're skilled hunters, but they go about gaining their food in ways that are more efficient then hunting...eating what's already been killed.
[br]
Communication: As rulers of the sky, the eagle is connected with the air element, which symbolises communication.
[br]
Streamlined: An eagle is streamlined, sleek and chiseled. Yoga helps the body to become streamlined, sleek and chiseled.
[br]
Focused Change: The eagle teaches us to use our abilities in a laser-like fashion to bring about focused change in our lives.
[br]
Fly Higher: Give yourself permission to fly higher.
