Vrksasana

Tree Pose

Asana:Vrksasana- Tree Pose.  Stand in Tadasana, bringing R foot up as high as possible inside L thigh, toes point down.  Press foot into thigh and thigh into sole of foot. Inhale, lifting arms up, balance.  Pay attention to how you are standing on the foot.  Is weight evenly distributed?  If you are touched by ‘Nirvana’ sway into ‘Dancing Tree’ by shifting hips away from R knee, open arms to sides, lift chest higher and feel the whispers of spring light. Do both sides, of course.

Health Notes: Vrksana strengthens leg and ankle muscles, increases balance, and offers a place of stillness, even when it ‘dances’.
