Seated Sky Gaze

Seated Sky Gaze (Waist)

Positioning:

1. Begin by sitting on the floor with your legs bent at the knees. Your feet should be flat on the ground.

2. Lean slightly back, supporting your weight with your hands placed behind you on the floor, fingers pointing toward your body.

Movement Instructions:

1. Engage your core muscles to help support your spine.

2. Inhale deeply, and as you exhale, gently arch your back while lifting your chest upward, creating a curve in your midback.

3. Simultaneously, tilt your head back and look up toward the ceiling, allowing your neck to relax.

4. Hold this position for a few breaths, focusing on lengthening your spine and expanding your chest.

5. To return to the starting position, gently lower your chest and head back to a neutral alignment.

6. Repeat the movement as desired, maintaining smooth and controlled breaths throughout.

Tips:

• Keep your shoulders relaxed throughout the movement.

• If you feel any discomfort in your neck or back, reduce the extent of the arching movement.

• Use your hands for support, but avoid putting too much weight on them to prevent straining your wrists.
