Teacher .yoga looking buddhaful tonight in Rabbit 🐇 Sasangasana: great posture to stretch out the spine slowly. The secret is to use your arms and pull on your heels with all your strength. That
creates maximum extension of the spine, increasing mobility and elasticity.
Stretching your spine also feeds the nervous system with fresh blood and oxygen.

•Pull your heels as hard as possible
•Tuck your chin to your chest
•Touch your forehead to your knees with the top of the head on the floor
•Lift your hips up, all the way, as high as possible
•Roll forward like a wheel until your elbows are straight
•Lift your shoulders up toward the ceiling
•Suck your stomach in
•Heels together
•Feet flat on the floor, no gap under the ankle
•Feel your total spine stretching top to bottom
•Eyes open, mouth closed, breathe normal
