It's Good to Be HONEST!

We studied chapter 5 of Liz Curtis Higgs' "It's Good to Be Queen!"  We worked a "box" move to remind ourselves that BEING TRUTHFUL breaks us FREE of the "boxed in" feelings that lies, secrets, deceptions, and disguises lock us to.  Queen Sheba "shelved her pride, ditched her embarrassment, and spoke the truth, holding nothing back."

We moved one side of the box with goddess steps:  step sideways into goddess pose,

 then slide feet and hands together and repeat.

1st Box Corner:  "SHELVE YOUR PRIDE" 

Standing on the left leg, cross the right ankle over the left knee.  Bend the left knee and balance your half lotus.

Step back in Warrior 1 to make the 2nd box side.  Step back left,

 step back right.  Be intentional and strong as you move.

2nd Box Corner:  "DITCH YOUR EMBARRASSMENT" 

Again, standing on the left leg, crossing over with the right.  Left elbow stacks in right, arms back to back and maybe twisted once, depending on your flexibility!

Move the 3rd side of the box with cross steps.  Step to the side,

then cross right over left.

Step to the side,

crossing right behind left.

3rd Box Corner:  "SPEAK THE TRUTH"

Standing on the right leg, crossing over with the left.  Right elbow stacks in left, arms back to back. Wrap the arms if you need more stretch!

Step forward in Warrior 1 to make the final box side.  Step forward left,

step forward right.

4th Box Corner:  "HOLDING NOTHING BACK"

Standing on the right leg, cross the left ankle over the right knee.  Bend the right knee and balance your half lotus.
