Video Transcript

"So now you've done all these back bending actions and by now you maybe feeling that you're very energized and very stimulated. Ustrasana or Camel Pose or Urdhva Dhanurasana, just a slight variation we did on the chair. You notice you feel very stimulated and that's natural. So when you do this kind of postures, take time to also come out of them and feel essence and more repose. This will take a little bit of doing. Not very much, I'm just going to show you very simple one. Taking the feet, hip wide, bringing the buttocks to the wall and bringing the chair towards you and just rest bringing the head down to the arms. This is the way to rest the back. And now you bend the legs slightly, rest your head. Okay. Turn your chair around. Sit cross legged on your mat. This is the way to release the lower back and give you little bit of the counteraction of the poses you've just done. Bring the hands unto your chair, bring your forehead down, relax your shoulders, allow the lower back to soften, to round. So if you can hold that about five minutes, resting and then take your freshener. Thank you for sharing this time with me. Enjoy your heart opening poses."
