Use these practices when you roll a #3 for the following colors!
Red -- Breathe
Gently touch fingertips and thumbs together. Create a space between your palms. You can hold in front of the chest or belly button. This hand gesture is "Hakini" or "Whole World" Mudra. A mudra is yoga for your hands. As you hold, breathe and broaden your perspective, expanding your awareness in all directions.
Orange -- Warm
Grab a chair for a Seated Sun Salutation:
Repeat these four poses on the opposite of the body!
Twist for Transition
Thread the Needle (ankle crosses thigh) then gently drop foot and thigh to the mat. Gaze in the opposite direction. The opposite arm can reach out to the side or cactus, bending the elbow and reaching the hand to the top of the mat. Repeat the twist on the opposite side.
Purple -- Rest
Sitting Still Like a Frog by Eline Snel
"A frog is a remarkable creature. It is capable of enormous leaps, but it can also sit very, very still. Although it is aware of everything that happens in and around it, the frog tends not to react right away. The frog sits still and breathes, preserving its energy instead of getting carried away by all the ideas that keep popping into its head. The frog sits still, very still, while it breathes. Its frog tummy rises a bit and falls again. It rises and falls . . . Anything a frog can do, you can do too. All you need is mindful attention. Attention to breath. Attention to peace and quiet."🐸
