SCOTT SOLLER: Hi, my name is Scott Soller, yoga instructor, here on behalf of Expert
Village. With feet hip width apart, hands about shoulder width apart, you can turn the
fingers forward or back; make sure that your shoulders are comfortable with this. Chin
is down. Gaze toward the navel. On the inhale, we come up, expanding the navel point. Exhaling,
lower down. Adjust your hands if you need to, to protect your shoulders. Inhaling up,
try to get your spine and thighs in one line. Exhaling, down. Inhaling, up; exhaling, down.
Inhaling, up; exhaling, down. Now if you're comfortable with this, you could stay up,
inhaling. You can keep the chin down or take the head back, tongue is out, mouth wide.
This is where we do the dog pant breath, where we pump from the abdominals. And the head
comes up, tongue in, exhale, come down. With hands up front, to the large toes, ankles
or shins or soles of feet, sit tall, inhale. Exhale, press the back of the knees down,
and rest here for as long as you like. And when you do release the pose, inhale up, exhale
release and meditate.
