Spotlight pose of the week, wc 03/04/2017 Savasana – corpse pose.

This week marks the end of our ‘Journey through the chakras’.  Most of the class blocks end with the 7th chakra, crown, or sahasrara, chakra.  This 1000-petal lotus chakra is associated with spiritualism, self realization, bliss and enlightenment.
savasana

Lie on your back on the ground (Grass/Earth is best).

If you find that you need some neck support, you can fold a towel and place it under your neck.  Stretch your legs, spread them comfortably apart (whatever feels good for you) and relax your lower body.

Draw your shoulder blades underneath you, tilt your chin slightly towards your chest (to lengthen your neck) and relax.

Your arms should be by your side, palms facing up or down, whatever is most comfortable.

There should be no effort to maintain this position.  Breathe deeply and feel the connection of your body with the ground.  Visualize deep violet in your Crown chakra as it is pulsing – expanding and contracting, spinning and moving.  Observe the flow of energy and feel the stability that this pose provides you.
