Simple yoga for beginners: Child’s pose

Are you just starting your yoga practice? Child’s pose is a great pose you can perfect.

The benefit of this pose is that it’s very calming. No matter how stressed you feel in your daily life, this short sequence will give you instant stress relief:

* Tadasana (mountain pose)

* Child’s post

* Sitting pose

Stand in mountain pose for several breaths, ensuring that your weight is evenly balanced, on the balls of your feet, as well as on your heels. Stretch out your toes.

Then get onto your hands and knees, and sit back on your heels.

Move forward into child’s pose, and rest in the pose for a minute or two.

When you come out of the pose, sit in sitting pose, and feel the difference in your body, and in your mood.
