☀️ Here’s Rita enjoying the sun in beautiful Puivert, France!
As part of our summer yoga series, she’s practicing Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana – the Hand-to-Big-Toe Pose. 🧘‍♀️

This powerful standing pose enhances strength, balance, and flexibility. It strengthens and stabilizes the feet, ankles, legs, and knees, while also opening up the hips, arms, and shoulders.

Because it requires focus and control, it helps build stamina, endurance, and a deeper awareness of your alignment. Plus, it supports both physical and emotional balance. 💫

As Rita shows, you can practice this pose anywhere – all you need is your body, breath, and a little sunshine.
Enjoy the rest of your hols Rita Mori 🌞
We're looking forward to hearing all about it next week.
