#MermaidYogis Day 19: Bow Pose

Ready to gain flexibility in all parts of the spine, and give a gentle massage to all your internal organs? Day 19 of #MermaidYogis is bow pose, or dhanurasana.

Bow Dhanurasana

 

Bow Pose:

  1. Begin lying prone (on belly).
  2. Bend both knees and reach back to take hold of tops of the feet or ankles.
  3. Exhale, release all the air from lungs and relax forehead onto mat.
  4. Inhale, kick feet into hands firmly so that thighs, head, shoulders, and chest lift off the mat.
  5. Continue to breathe and extend feet into hands – you may also use the breath to rock back and forth, massaging the abdomen.
