Puppy pose
Puppy pose ; Uttana Shishosana
This heart opener is a variation between child's pose and downward facing dog.
This pose reaches into your heart and works to open this space to all your beautiful love inside. This pose can also open up the shoulders, armpits, neck and naturally turn into a little back bend.
You begin in table top ( on your hands and knees )
Shoulders are over your wrists and hips are over your knees.
Slowly and lovingly begin to walk your hands forward letting your chin and heart come down to the mat.
Glutes point to the sky.
Arms are stretched out in front of you.
Forhead can rest on the earth OR you can open this space deeper by resting your chin on the mat and bringing the gaze forward.
Find your comfortable breath and rest here feeling your heart and shoulders open while breathing softness into the shoulder, the jaw, your toes and eyes.
Shanti ❤
