Water Element Yoga
The water element is associated with emotions, passion, pleasure, creativity, fluidity, and sexuality. The water element yoga helps you to connect easily with self, be calm, and let things go, to be open to joy and pleasure, and express creativity. The asanas, including the sun salutation, bring the free-flowing nature of water into the body and mind. Pranayama like the Sheetali helps cool the mind and relieve stress in the body and mind.
Around 10 minutes after your yoga practive, shower or take a bath. Use lukewarm water for the head, and warm water (not too hot and too cold) for the rest of the body.
