How to use sandbags for yoga?

Sandbags are “powerful” yoga accessories. In restorative and yin yoga, sandbags help you feel more supported and grounded. With their weight, hardness, yet gentle, they pleasantly loosen tight muscles, “smooth out” energy, and open the way for emotions to a sense of security. The pressure of the bag relieves physical tension.

Why does the weight of the bag work like this?

Think about how you feel in the firm embrace of a loved one. It is usually a comforting, soothing, and pleasant feeling! And what about when we wrap a blanket around a squirming, restless baby? Most of the time, the gentle squeeze of a friendly hug or swaddling has a calming effect, helping us to feel safe and calm. Sandbags work on the same principle. Deep pressure is directly connected to the amygdala, the part of the brain responsible for emotions, survival, memory, and sensory processing. The pressure of a yoga weight bag on the body helps to calm and dissipate feelings of anxiety and sensory overload.

• for extra deep relaxation in Shavasana, place the sandbag on your thighs or upper arms in Shavasana
• when placed on your stomach, the weight of the sand helps you better sense your breath and the muscles involved
• you can place it on your thigh in the seated forward bend of Janushirshasana or in the Virasana position to enhance the stretch
• the yoga sandbag can also be used as a meditation seat
