SUPPORTED HEART OPENER
Come to a seated position with two blocks next to you. Place one of the blocks
behind you on the mat on a medium level with the long end of the block lining up
with the top of the mat. Place the other about the length of a block away, beginning
on a high level. Lie down so that the edges of your shoulder blades drape over the first
block and so that the second block ends up comfortably at the very back of your
head. You can play around with the height of the block beneath your head until it’s at
a comfortable place (high, medium, or low). You can let your legs stay extended, or if
you wish, connect the soles of the feet, allowing the knees to come out to the sides—
whatever feels best to you. Let the arms rest down by your sides, palms facing up.
