Held for five breaths during Surya Namaskara and performed repeatedly throughout the yoga practice, this pose is perhaps the most ubiquitous of all poses. Its prevalence can be attributed to its powerful healing effects on the body. Repeated practice helps students establish healthy shoulder alignment, makes good use of the lower stomach muscles and the elusive bandha area, gently releases the spine in a semi-inversion, and stretches the hamstrings and lower legs.
Enter this pose directly from Upward-Facing Dog. For best results, place your hands about shoulder-width apart and your feet hip-width apart. Draw your shoulder blades down your back and away from each other to create a sense of spaciousness around your neck. Release the trapezius (upper back) muscles. Distribute your weight into your torso so it is supported by the latissimus dorsi and serratus anterior muscles. This helps keep your arms integrated into your torso. Keep your ribs in a neutral position to provide a sense of structural support from the top and bottom of your body; do not squeeze or puff out your rib cage. Draw your lower stomach in and engage the muscles in your pelvic floor. |
