Mind-Body Connection
This gentle morning practice can be done either first thing in the morning or at any time when you want to connect with your body and have a quiet practice.
We will gently activate the legs and lower back, followed by a gentle awakening of the abdominal area to stimulate digestion, relieve gas, and aid in constipation.
Next, we will activate the arms and legs to engage the muscles and bones. Once we create length and space along the torso, we bring our awareness to the front and back spine.
Now, let’s lengthen the back of the legs with Supta Padangusthasana to extend the lower back and relieve any tension.
Finally, we will finish with Paschimottanasana, a forward extension to rest the spine before Savasana.
