Part 2/8:
To ease into this practice, we initiate with Child's Pose, a gentle way to settle in, allowing individuals to connect with their breath and themselves. Knees together, feet aligned, and arms resting by the sides invite an inward focus. As participants gently rock left and right, they become aware of any tension held in the body—especially in the lower back, hips, and shoulders. Acknowledging these areas provides the insight needed for a fruitful practice.
Proceeding from this position, one reaches the left arm toward the right corner of the mat, allowing the right hand to relax beside the body. This stretch on the left side enhances the body's flexibility and readiness to engage.
