Get Up and Move! 動(dòng)起來(lái)!
There are many different yoga poses. Some can help you stretch the neck, shoulders and back, which are most likely to get tense when you are nervous or stressed. Try these two yoga poses when you want to de-stress(減壓) yourself:
Surprise/Sourpuss(牢騷滿腹的人): Open your mouth wide and bug(使眼球暴突) out your eyes, then close your eyes very tightly and pucker(折成褶子) your lips.
Alternate(輪流,交替) back and forth between “surprise” and “sourpuss.” Do this while you're studying to help loosen up your face and jaw, which can get really tense while you're studying. If you have a study partner, make a game of it! Who can make the silliest face?
Shoulder gymnastics: Do a few gentle shoulder and neck rolls right before a test to keep your shoulders nice and loose. You can even do them during a test if you need a refreshing break.
瑜伽有很多不同的姿勢(shì),有些可以讓你伸展頸部、肩膀和背部,這些部位在你緊張或感到壓力時(shí)通常會(huì)繃得很緊。當(dāng)你想減壓的時(shí)候,試試以下兩個(gè)瑜伽姿勢(shì):
驚訝/怒容:張開(kāi)嘴巴,瞪大雙眼;然后緊緊地合上眼睛,噘起嘴唇。交替做“驚訝”和“怒容”這兩個(gè)動(dòng)作。我們學(xué)習(xí)時(shí),臉部和下顎會(huì)繃緊,這套動(dòng)作能幫你放松這兩個(gè)部位。如果你跟同伴一起學(xué)習(xí),還可以當(dāng)游戲玩呢!誰(shuí)的鬼臉更傻呢?
肩操:測(cè)驗(yàn)前適當(dāng)擺動(dòng)肩頸能讓你的肩部舒適放松。如果想休息一下,讓自己頭腦清醒,你甚至可以在測(cè)驗(yàn)中途做一下這個(gè)動(dòng)作。
Have Fun with Yoga 開(kāi)心自在玩瑜伽
Yoga can help you in serious ways, but it also can be a lot of fun. You can smile during yoga, and even laugh, which is a great stress reliever too. Yoga can be done alone or with friends. And you can do it at home, at a yoga studio, or in the park.
We'll end with a special Sanskrit(梵語(yǔ)) greeting—“namaste.” It's traditionally said at the end of a yoga practice and it means the light inside of me bows(鞠躬) to the light inside of you. Namaste.
瑜伽既可以嚴(yán)肅對(duì)待,也可以趣味橫生。練習(xí)瑜伽時(shí)你可以面帶笑容,甚至放聲大笑,這也是減壓的好方式哦。你可以獨(dú)自練習(xí)瑜伽,也可以結(jié)伴練習(xí);瑜伽可以在家、瑜伽室或公園里進(jìn)行。
我們將以一句特別的梵文問(wèn)候語(yǔ)結(jié)束——“雙手合十”。瑜伽練習(xí)結(jié)束時(shí)一般都會(huì)說(shuō)這句話,意思是我體內(nèi)的靈光向你體內(nèi)的靈光鞠躬。雙手合十。
