I believe that the same way the sun awakens the seed that grows, always looking for the sun, towards the sun, so does our inner strength and power grow. It can be awakened by the sun and nurtured by it so that we also can do great things. It sounds esoteric, but it’s a very practical approach. You can feel results when Sun Salutations are practiced consistently.
“I have been a seeker and I still am, but I stopped asking the books and the stars. I started listening to the teaching of my Soul.” ∞ Rumi
Steps:
1. Standing in Tadasana, turn your palms away from your body so your thumbs point backward. Inhaling, sweep your arms out to the sides and up toward the ceiling.
2. If your shoulders are tight, stop when your arms are parallel to your body. The next step is to put your hands together, base of palms first and lastly the fingers. Make sure that your shoulders and shoulder blades remain lowered down your back.
3. Reach through your pinkies so your thumbs reach slightly down toward the crown of your head. Without compressing your neck, tip your head backward and look at your thumbs.
4. Your lower ribs should not protrude. Lift your ribcage away from your belly and press your tailbone toward the floor stretching your belly.
