🌗 Ardha Chandrasana 🌓
~ Half Moon Pose ~
This pose considers the Moon in great symbolism. And, as we’ve just reached the New Moon of May, I thought to share a little of this pose (which feels SO good in the body!) ~ This pose helps to activate & balance opposite sides of the body, just as the Moon and Sun are in an energetic Balance.
🌙
More than just the Moon, “Chandra” refers to something that is glittering, shining, a brilliant object that is illuminated by light.
The moon, which is feminine energy, is nurturing, receptive, tranquil, and symbolizes one half of the two polar energies in the body.
Benefits :
✨ Expands chest & shoulders
✨Strengthens core, hamstrings, glutes
✨Expands and balances energetic bodies
✨Relieves physical, mental and emotion fatigue
🌙
In this pose, Shift your gaze from the Earth to the Sky, turning your face to the sun and receive the brilliance of life’s blessings ✨
