Steady Balance: Simple One-Legged Work

Tree Pose (Vrksasana)

Root one foot firmly and place the other on your calf or inner thigh, never the knee. Fix your gaze on something unmoving and lift your chest softly. Arms can rise or open wide. Celebrate each second upright. Some days, balance finds you when you simply breathe.

Single-Leg Stand with Toe Tap

Stand tall, lift one foot an inch, and lightly tap it forward, side, and back. Keep your core engaged and hips level. Use a wall for support if needed. Track your progress across a week and share the day you felt calmly unshakable.

Dancer Prep (Natarajasana Preparation)

Hold your ankle or a strap behind you, keep both hips facing forward, and reach the opposite arm ahead. Lift your chest without crunching the lower back. Find buoyancy in your breath. Play with tiny adjustments until the pose feels spacious and joyful.

Gentle Backbends: Open the Front Body

Press the tops of your feet, ground your pubic bone, and draw shoulders back as you gently peel your chest up. Keep elbows close and low. Think length, not height. Many beginners feel a bright, soft confidence here—like the spine remembering sunshine.

Gentle Backbends: Open the Front Body

Rest on forearms with elbows under shoulders, forearms pressing down as the heart moves forward. Keep your belly slightly active for support. Breathe slow, widening across your collarbones. The stretch is subtle but reliable, a measured opening that soothes without overwhelming.

Flow Basics: Build a Gentle Sequence

Plank Fundamentals

Wrists under shoulders, heels reach back, and the belly draws inward. Press the floor away to broaden upper back. Drop to knees anytime. Feel steadiness grow with three steady breaths. This is strength built responsibly, a promise you keep to your future practice.

Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana)

Form an inverted V, bend knees liberally, and lengthen your spine first. Press evenly through hands, especially the thumbs and index fingers. Pedal your feet to warm calves. Many beginners find this pose becomes restful over time—proof that patience plants deep roots.

Low Lunge Steps and Transitions

Step one foot forward between your hands, lower the back knee if needed, and use blocks for space. Move slowly to protect your hip flexors and lower back. Each careful step trains grace. Celebrate small smooth landings; they add up to real flow.

Twists and Rest: Reset to Finish

Supine Twist

Draw knees to chest and release them to one side while both shoulders remain heavy. Turn your head the opposite way for a spacious spine. Breathe into your ribs. This bedtime-friendly twist wrings out mental static and invites a calmer heartbeat.

Seated Twist (Beginner Variation)

Sit tall on a cushion, hug one knee, and twist from the navel upward. Lengthen with each inhale, rotate gently with each exhale. Keep both sit bones grounded. Notice if your breath gets smoother. Ease, not force, keeps your back happily curious.

Savasana (Final Rest)

Lie down, support your knees with a pillow, and let your arms rest away from the body. Soften the jaw and the space between your eyebrows. Imagine the floor holding you kindly. Five quiet breaths here can change the tone of your entire day.
