Tree Pose
Vrksasana (vrik-SHAHS-anna)
I send roots down deep into the earth.
- Breathe in and out.
- Stand straight and tall.
- Feel your legs reaching toward the ground.
- Feel your head reaching toward the sky.
I am focused and stable.
- Place one foot inside the opposite leg.
- Imagine roots growing from your foot into the ground.
- Let your leg be strong like the trunk of a tree.
I reach high to the sky.
- Breathe in and out.
- Stretch your arms out like branches.
I am a beautiful tree.
{Remember, don’t worry if you start to fall; just smile and start from the beginning.}
