Perfect day for Rabbit Pose

Happy Easter Monday Everyone - what a great day fro Rabbit Pose!!

Instructions
1)  Begin in a child's yoga position--kneel down and then lower your buttocks to sit on your lower leg and feet. With your arms on the sides, lower your torso on your thighs, as you bring your head down on the floor. From this position, you can start the rabbit pose.

2)  Press your forehead slightly on your knees. Then, extend your arms backward and hold on to the base of your feet. Give your heels a firm hold and then take a deep breath.

3)  Exhale as you gradually lift or elevate your hips. Keep your forehead as close as possible to your knees and the topmost part of your skull (crown of the head) near the floor or mat.
      
4) Contract your abdominal muscles as you hold the pose for 5 to 8 seconds, then relax.
