Step
by Step
Start on your hands and knees in
a "tabletop" position. Make sure your knees
are set directly below your hips and your wrists,
elbows and shoulders are in line and perpendicular
to the floor. Center your head in a neutral position,
eyes looking at the floor.
As you inhale, lift your sitting bones and chest
toward the ceiling, allowing your belly to sink toward
the floor. Lift your head to look straight forward. Exhale, coming back to neutral "tabletop"
position on your hands and knees. Repeat 10 to 20
times. This pose is often paired with Cat Pose on the exhale
for a gentle, flowing vinyasa. |
