🌿 *Today’s Pose: Chaturanga Dandasana (Four-Limbed Staff Pose)* 🌿
This pose is often called the “Yogi’s Push-Up” because it blends strength with control. It’s a key transition pose in yoga and an excellent way to build stamina.
✅ Benefits:
• Strengthens arms, shoulders, wrists, and core
• Improves posture and body alignment
• Prepares you for arm balances and advanced asanas
• Builds focus and inner discipline
🧘 Steps to Practice:
1. Begin in a plank position, shoulders stacked over wrists.
2. Engage your core and keep the body in a straight line.
3. Inhale deeply. As you exhale, bend your elbows close to your ribs.
4. Lower halfway down until your elbows are at a 90° angle.
5. Keep your chest broad and shoulders away from ears.
6. Hold briefly, then move into upward-facing dog or back to plank.
⚠️ Avoid: Dropping your belly, flaring your elbows, or letting your shoulders collapse.
💡 Tip: Start with knees on the mat if you’re building strength – the form matters more than depth!
