Part 4/7:
Bringing the knees back to the center and repeating on the opposite side, the practice promotes balance and encourages tension release in the lower back and spine. Once again, participants are reminded to notice their breath, embracing the moment to connect with their bodies.
Child’s Pose and Joint Warming
Transitioning to the mat, the next sequence emphasizes warming up the joints. By rocking forward and back, participants gently warm the elbows, shoulders, hips, and knees. As the knees widen, rocking back into Child’s Pose further invites a deep stretch. Individuals are encouraged to drop their heads, resting on supportive cushions, and to focus on expanding the breath within the rib cage.
