These Power Yoga poses were captured using a Canon SLR with a remote control timer via the Camera Connect app on iPhone. The process highlights the progressive strengthening of the core and the body’s increasing flexibility through flow-based practice.

Flow state, as described in The Rise of Superman by Steven Kotler, is a state of optimal consciousness where one is fully immersed, energized, and focused. Practicing yoga in this state enhances flexibility, strength, and balance while deepening body awareness and breath control. This heightened awareness improves movement efficiency, reduces injury risk, and refines form and alignment. Additionally, being “in the zone” sharpens concentration, enabling greater ease and precision in complex poses.
