Sun Salutation or Surya Namaskar

Breathe in as you release your legs and stand up. Breathing out, immediately lunge forward with your right leg, keeping your toes tucked under.
Support weight on both hands, right foot,
left knee, and toes of the left foot. Tilt the head back; look up. Inhale and retain breath.
When you repeat this exercise, alternate the leg you lunge forward
with. For example, use the left leg instead of right. You may also want
to do some experimentation to determine the comfortable distance to step forward so
that you can perform Steps 4 and 5 in one fluid movement. Try to keep your left knee off the floor. |

Breathe in as you gently raise your arms in a wide circle out to the sides and overhead, palms together, looking up at your hands. Hold your breath.
Hold the position for a few seconds with body in pose, breath held, eyes focused, and mind
silent. |
