Here are five easy yoga poses and How to do it
- Mountain Pose (Tadasana): Stand with your feet hip-width apart, distribute your weight evenly, and activate your legs. Engage your core, roll your shoulders down and back, and lengthen your neck. Inhale and reach your arms overhead, with your palms facing each other.
- Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana): Begin on all fours with your hands and knees on the ground. Your hands should be shoulder-width apart, and your knees should be hip-width apart. Exhale and lift your knees off the ground, straightening your legs and lifting your hips towards the ceiling. Keep your head and neck relaxed.
- Child’s Pose (Balasana): Start on all fours, with your hands and knees on the ground. Exhale and lower your hips towards your heels, stretching your arms out in front of you. Rest your forehead on the ground, and take a few deep breaths.
- Tree Pose (Vrikshasana): Stand with your feet hip-width apart, and shift your weight to your left foot. Place your right foot on your left thigh, with your toes pointing towards the ground. Press your foot into your thigh, and bring your hands to your heart center. Find a steady gaze, and breathe deeply.
- Warrior II (Virabhadrasana II): Stand with your feet hip-width apart, and step your left foot back about 4 feet. Turn your left foot out to a 90-degree angle, and keep your right foot facing forward. Raise your arms to shoulder height, and stretch your arms in opposite directions. Look over your right hand, and keep your core engaged.
Remember to listen to your body, and modify or skip poses as needed. Also, it is always a good idea to consult with a medical professional before beginning a new exercise routine, especially if you have any health concerns.
