Tadasana
Tree Pose
BENEFITS:
- Calms the nervous system in preparation for Savasana
- Assists in correcting poor posture
- Increases hip and knee mobility
- Stretches the spine
- Releases abdominal tension
- Relieves lower back pain
- Strengthens oblique muscles to prevent hernia
- Good for circulatory problems, arthritis and rheumatism
tips:
- As with other standing one-legged postures, the standing leg remains flexed with the kneecap lifted.
- Imagine gravity rooting the body from the hips down through the floor while feeling a sense of anti-gravity from the waist through the top of the head.
- Flex both buttocks.
- Keep the lower back flat (Sometimes a sway-back occurs) while lifting the abdomen.
