Dharma Yoga Sequence
There are many yoga sequences that one can practice, and the following is one of my personal favorites. This sequence is designed to open the hips and hamstrings, while also stretching and strengthening the spine.
1. Start by standing in Tadasana (Mountain Pose), with your feet hip-width apart.
2. Inhale as you reach your arms overhead, and then exhale as you fold forward into Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend).
3. Allow your head and neck to relax as you hang from your hips.
4. Stay in this position for a few breaths, and then inhale as you slowly rise back up to standing.
5. Next, step your left foot back into a lunge position, with your left knee bent and your right leg straight.
6. Reach your arms overhead, and then exhale as you fold forward into Uttanasana.
7. Hold this position for a few breaths, and then inhale as you come back to standing.
8. Step your right foot back into a lunge position, with your right knee bent and your left leg straight.
9. Reach your arms overhead, and then exhale as you fold forward into Uttanasana.
10. Hold this position for a few breaths, and then inhale as you come back to standing.
11. Finally, stand in Tadasana and reach your arms overhead.
This sequence can be repeated 2-3 times, depending on your time and energy level. If you’re short on time, you can simply do the first and last poses.
