Activity
Improve balance, focus, and concentration.
Strengthen ankles, calves, thighs, and spine.
Develop a sense of grounding and stability.
Starting Position: Begin in Tadasana (Mountain Pose), grounding firmly through both feet.
Shift Weight: Shift your weight onto your left foot, feeling it root down.
Lift Right Foot: Bend your right knee and use your right hand to grasp your right ankle or foot.
Place Foot: Place the sole of your right foot on the inner left thigh, calf, or ankle (avoid placing it directly on the knee joint). The toes of the right foot should point downwards.
Hip Alignment: Ensure your right knee is pointing outwards, opening the hip, but keep your hips relatively square to the front.
Balance: Find your balance. Once stable, bring your hands to Anjali Mudra (prayer position) at your heart center.
Arm Variation (Optional): If balance allows, slowly extend your arms overhead, palms together or shoulder-width apart. Keep shoulders relaxed away from ears.
Gaze: Find a steady, unmoving point (drishti) in front of you to help with balance.
Breathing: Breathe deeply and steadily.
Hold: Hold for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Release: Gently lower your right foot back to the mat and return to Tadasana. Repeat on the other side.
