Let's close out our May Pose of the Month, Half Moon Pose (Ardha Chandrasana), with a few helpful tips! 🌙
As you enter the pose, keep your standing foot pointing toward the top of the mat and flex through the lifted foot.
To help yourself "lift off," place the fingertips of your lower hand on the floor (or a block), bend into the standing leg, and use that support to float the back leg up.
Open the hip of the lifted leg and broaden across the chest as the top arm reaches toward the sky.
If it feels available, begin to straighten the standing leg while drawing that hip in and up for stability. Gaze toward the top hand, or wherever helps you feel steady and balanced.
And remember: wobbling is part of the practice! 😄
Need a little extra support? Use a block, or practice with your back against a wall.
Have fun exploring it! ✨
