Today's Yoga Posture is.............



Boat Pose

This is a great core strengthening posture that tones everything from the abs to the shoulder muscles.  A simple modification to this pose is to bend the kness until you gain the strength needed to straighten the legs.  This is a wonderful alternative to crunches and some other ab exercises and puts zero strain on the neck.  As with all yoga postures, I suggest holding the pose for 5 deep breaths and repeat 4 to 5 times closer to the end of your practice for a little added abdominal and core work.
