Relieving tension in the back and neck, and calming the nervous system. The Child Pose can be done by: • 1. Begin by coming onto your hands and knees. From here bring your knees a bit wider than your hips, with your big toes touching. • 2. Slowly lower the torso down and allow your belly to rest between your legs. • 3. Drop the head down and let the forehead rest on the floor, releasing any tension from your face. Make sure the neck is neutral and without pressure on it. • 4. Drop the hips down towards your heels, as you extend and lengthen your spine and fingertips forward. • 5. You can either continue to lie with your arms out in front of you or bring your arms behind you with the hands next to your feet. • 6. Stay in this position for at least five deep breaths, or maybe much longer, if that feels right for you. • 7. If you are ready to come out of the pose, press your palms down and lift back up to your hands and knees • CAUTIONS • Read the following cautions to stay safe: • • Keep the neck safe from injury by holding it in a neutral position. • • Do not perform this position if you have, or are recovering from, a knee injury. • • If you are pregnant, make sure the legs are far enough apart, so your belly does not get pressured by the legs. • • If there is any concern, please contact your physician on whether this practice is good for you. • MAKING THE POSE EASIER • • This position is all about getting rest in a comfortable and easy position. If you experience any discomfort, for example, your forehead feels sore or your ankles. Please place a cushion underneath them, to make the position more comfortable.
