RAINBOW Yoga -- zipaDee-PURPLE

Use these practices when you roll a #6 for the following colors!

Red -- Breathe
Treasure Box or Hidden Treasure Mudra
Mudras are typically one sided, not like yoga postures that are practiced on one side and then the other.  Traditionally, the left hand supports the right. In this mudra (yoga for your hands), cup the left hand up in front of the belly button.  Cup the right hand down on top of the left to create the treasure box.  What kind of treasure is hidden within you?  Use this mudra when you want to feel gratitude for who you are or wish to discover what gifts you have to share!

Purple -- Rest
Toothpaste Tube ~ Squeeze and Release
You are a tube of toothpaste, and there's just a little left!  Target the little bit of paste by squeeze the toes and feet . . . release!  Then squeeze the legs and bum . . . release!  Move the toothpaste further up the tube by squeezing your tummy, chest, shoulders, hands, and arms . . . release! Now neck, face, head  . . .  release and POP?!  The toothpaste squirts out the top of your head, and your whole body is relaxed and ready to rest.🦷
