STEP 1.
TIP your torso.
"Tip your torso slightly toward your front leg to keep length on both sides of your torso as you come into the pose."
STEP 2.
KEEP your OUTER HIP muscles ENGAGED.
"Hug the muscles on the outer hip of your back leg in to stabilize your back leg and to stabilize your hip joints and low back."
STEP 3.
CAREFULLY CHOOSE your your neck position.
"Choose your neck position based on what feels best on your neck. Your gaze can be down, straight forward, or up."
AND FINALLY, PUT IT ALL TOGETHER!
QUOTE and a QUESTION for INSPIRATION
QUOTE.
by Ram Dass, an American spiritual teacher, guru of modern yoga, psychologist, and writer. His best-selling 1971 book Be Here Now, which has been described by multiple reviewers as "seminal", helped popularize Eastern spirituality and yoga in the West:
"Information is just bits of data. Knowledge is putting them together. Wisdom is transcending them.”
- Source: Insight Timer daily quote
QUESTION.
In what ways do you actively pursue the information that needs to come together for knowledge? Which methods do you use to transcend knowledge and become truly wise?
