Lavendel fields forever.....in the Verdon. An hour's drive, visit the Verdon, the lavender fields, the Lac de St Croix with its water sports and return to the peace and quiet of Mas Kailash for the evening.






Fish pose

Lying on the back, we keep the legs outstretched, placing the palms on the floor under the buttocks. In haling we lift the chest up, using the elbows as support, while we stretch the head backwards till the crown chakra touches the ground. This position allows the upper lungs to open completely and allows deep breathing.
We keep the position as long as it feels comfortable. Exhaling we free the hands and lower the body flat to the ground.
Matsyasana, the Fish pose, stretches the thoracic cavity, stimulates the trachea and larynx and improves singing and speaking voice. Sends rich blood supply to the brain, improving mental acuity. Tones and relieves mental tension and cures disorders of the stomach.
