- Pranams
Surrender you whole body now –
forehead, heart and belly to the earth.
Quiet the outer mind and awaken your
inner heart as you offer your authentic
prayer in words, in feeling or just
breathing in your connectedness to the
earth. Rest here for 1-3 breaths.- Bhujangasana–
Cobra Pose or Upward Dog
As you are ready, draw your hands along the earth under
your shoulders. Lengthen your tailbone to your heels.
As you inhale, rise from the earth and breathe into your
open heart. You can also rise into upward dog. Keep
your inner gaze at your heart and coil back through
your belly for bhakti vajrasana.- Chaturanga Dandasana Four-Limbed Staff Pose (lowering to the earth)
Draw into your core. Feel your shoulders draw onto your back and your heels radiate behind you as you
lower to bring the sides of your waist to meet your elbows at a 90-degree bend.6 7
