60 min Restorative Yoga for Immune System | Yoga with Melissa 551

This 60 minute restorative yoga class for your immune system will focus on 3 primary organs of your immune system: your thymus, lymph nodes and your spleen. 

Your thymus is located behind your breastbone above your heart. Your thymus is responsible for T cells which move through your body and continually monitor the surface of your cells for changes. We will practice restorative backbend to stimulate your thymus glands. 

Your lymph nodes occur anywhere there is a crease in your body. Think armpits, groin, elbow, behind your knees. Your lymph nodes act as filters trapping germs and activating antibodies in your blood. If your lymph nodes are swollen your immune system is active and fighting and infection. We will practice restorative yoga poses to access the groin, armpits and knees in this class. 

Your spleen is located in your upper left abdomen underneath your diaphragm. It stores immune cells called scavenger cells that filter germs that get into your bloodstream. We will be practicing a restorative side bend to stimulate your spleen in this restorative yoga class for your immune system.
