This information is not intended as medical advice.
Scorpio yoga is practiced in conjunction with Yogastrology.
Scorpio rules the pelvis. The body is equipped with two diaphragms: one in the chest, the other in the floor of the pelvis. Guided, conscious breathing always enhances prana, life force, because prana rides on the breath. So inhaling and exhaling in the pelvic diaphragm as well as the chest doubles your connection to prana or life force. The Scorpio Yogastrology version of the Baddha Konasana "Cobbler Pose" creates opennness in the pelvis, enhancing the process and inviting success.
