NEW! Pose of the Week tutorial video + instructional photos - Extended Puppy Pose 🧘🏾‍♀️ (Patreon)

Blessings Nude Yogis 🙏🏽

This week's Pose of the Week is Uttana Shishosana Pose aka Extended Puppy Pose.

It is a beginner-friendly chest-opening backbend. It is great for improving the flexibility of your spine and stretching your shoulders. 

This pose expands your chest, thereby decreasing the tension in the back and shoulder areas. As a result, it improves the breathing capacity of the lungs. 

This pose has a plethora of benefits.

Benefits of this pose can include:

• improved spinal strength and flexibility
• improved posture
• strengthens the hips and back muscles
• activates your abdominal muscles, thereby aiding in digestion

Be sure to have a look through the instructional photos also.

⚠️PLEASE PRACTICE WITH CAUTION/OR AVOID IF YOU HAVE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:⚠️

• knee or shoulder injury
• hip injury 

If you have lower back pain, please exercise caution in this pose. If you have any knee issues, you can modify this pose by placing rolling up your mat for extra support beneath your knees, or use a towel for more cushioning and support for the knees.
