Day 4 – Easy Pose with Eagle Arms

We are trucking along with our shoulder opening challenge here at Fun Joy Peace. Hopefully, you are starting to feel the stretch. Today we are working on easy pose with eagle arms.

Instructions:

Sit on your mat with your knees bent and out to the sides. 

Bring left foot in towards your pelvis and take your right foot slightly in front of your left foot so that they’re not touching.

Inhale and lengthen through your spine sitting nice and tall

Hands in prayer position or loosely on your knees

Relax the forehead and the space between the eyebrows

Tilt the chin so it’s parallel to the floor

Relax the shoulders away from the ears

Keep your back and torso long.

Tilt the pelvis slightly forward

Bring your right hand out in front of you and bend at the elbow, your palm facing your face/head. 

Take your left arm and bring the crook of it right under the right elbow, wrapping your left arm around the right. If you can press your palms together, and gently lift your elbows to shoulder height or draw it towards your chin.
