rabbit

sasangasana

Rabbit lengthens the spine and stretches the back, arms, and shoulders while stimulating the immune and endocrine systems.

From child pose, hold onto the heels with the hands and pull the forehead in towards the knees with the crown of the head on the floor.

Holding tightly onto the heels, inhale and lift the hips up towards the ceiling.

Keep the crown of the head on the floor and press the forehead as close to the knees as possible.

Breathe and hold for 4-8 breaths.

To release: slowly exhale and lower the hips to the heels and slide the forehead back to the floor into child pose.

Place a folded blanket under the knees and/or head to protect them from pressure and stress.
