Happy Lunar New Year! I'm wishing you and your family good health and good fortune all year. May we all have compassion for ourselves and others as we navigate life in 2022. To help celebrate the tiger energy coming in this week, I've included a couple of watercolor illustrations of Tiger Pose (Vyaghrasana) in this email. This is a wonderfully stabilizing balancing pose and also an invigorating backbend that moves energy from the pelvis to the chest. Often in my yoga class, we will do the One-Handed Tiger Pose version with a straight leg in the back and an arm extended out in the front to work our minds and bodies asymmetrically. Try Tiger Pose three times on each side. Get into a rhythmic flow- inhaling as you lift your leg (and arm), exhaling as you round inwards. After moving some energy through your body, take a moment in Downward Facing Dog or Child's Pose. Settle into stillness while you absorb and assimilate the echoes of movement from the Tiger Pose.
