Part 5/7:
Following this, yogis shift into the stretch pose, raising their legs and arms simultaneously at a 60-degree angle while continuing the breath of fire. For those who seek comfort, adjustments can be made by placing hands underneath the lower back for support. The intensity of this posture promotes not only physical strength but also mental resilience, demonstrating that challenge can pair with tranquillity.
Culminating Energy and Release
After a vigorous session, participants are guided to bring their knees to the chest, connecting with their breath in a gentle but energizing practice. The caterpillar stretch allows the body to release after the intensity of the earlier poses. Deep and deliberate breathing during this time is crucial as it helps absorb the fire generated earlier.
