Couldn't load pickup availability
If long hours of sitting at a desk leave your dorsal/thoracic spine feeling tense and stressed, your yoga practice is the perfect antidote. The Wooden Yoga Heart Wedge is a simple yet powerful prop designed to help you actively relieve this tension, open the chest cavity, and promote deep relaxation in the back muscles.
The Power of Heart Opening
This specialized wooden wedge elevates the chest area, making it a fantastic tool for supported backbends and restorative poses. By gently lifting and supporting the back and spine, the heart wedge:
-
Opens the Chest Cavity: Spreading the chest gives the lungs and heart more room to function fully, enhancing breath capacity and promoting good health.
-
Relieves Thoracic Tension: Helps to counteract the forward slump often caused by modern life, guiding the spine back toward its natural curve.
-
Enhances Organ Function: By decompressing the rib cage, it promotes better function of the vital organs housed in the chest and abdomen.
This prop provides the perfect amount of firm, reliable support for your back and spine while subtly engaging your core muscles for stability.
Poses and Practice
The primary purpose of the Heart Wedge is to relax the back and release tension. It offers a solid, grounded feeling that fabric or foam props cannot replicate, ensuring safety and allowing deeper surrender into the pose.
Key Poses for the Wedge:
-
Setu Bandha Sarvangasana (Supported Bridge Pose)
-
Matsyasana (Supported Fish Pose)
-
Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-The-Wall variation)
-
Ustrasana (Supported Camel Pose preparation)
-
Savasana: Used beneath the shoulder blades for a subtle, restorative chest lift.
