Rabbit is a fantastic posture for balancing out the spine after the deepest backbend in the series, Camel pose. It rounds out the body for the final couple of postures.
Tips:
- To get the proper grip in this posture cradle your heels in the palms over the towel, getting a firm grip.
- Lower tour chin, round your shoulder, collapse your chest and curl your torso.
- As you exhale and curl you lift your hips into the air and pull. This opens the back of the spine.
Benefits:
- Rabbit posture improves digestion, regulates metabolism, helps insomnia and depression.
- It also improves conditions of the sinus and can help with colds.
- Practising rabbit stretched the whole spine and thus increases proper nutrition to the whole nervous system.
