Having recently had to cancel a class due to sore throat and later the whole cold thing, I thought I would share a great preventative posture - too late for me of course!
Ok, so Lion is a moving posture designed to stimulate the white blood cells in the neck and throat to help gobble up that bacteria.
Sit comfortably. I prefer to kneel with my legs apart. Rest your hands on your thighs. Take a couple of easy, deep breaths. Inhale deeply, as you exhale, let your body move forwards, open your mouth as wide as you can, push your tongue as far out as you can, and make a sound like a lion. At the same time, stretch your arms forward, spread your fingers wide as if you were an angry lion.
So, off you go. Not bad for a first try but make that lion roar! Usually my class has to perform this three times before I am happy that we have communicated with the lions in the local wild animal parks!
