YOGA Pose of the day

This pose is called child's pose, it will bring instant relief to aching shoulders and lower back pain. It is great for relaxation and steadies your breathing rhythm.

• Sit on your knees and buttocks and bring yourself forward, stretching out your arms in front of you, bring your arms around so that they are behind back and legs.
• If you are having trouble getting your head to the floor you can put your hands in a fist shape, bring them back in front of you and rest your forehead on your fists.
• Breath into your lower abdomen slowly and deeply. You will feel your lower back just above your hips extending as you breath in, this helps you to feel that you are breathing from your abdomen. Hold this for a minute to two or until you find relief.
