Mountain


Benefits:

Cues:
  • Rock back and forth and side to side on your feet identifying the four corners - big toe mound, little toe mound and the inner and outer side of the heel

  • Knees should be pointed fairly straight forward
  • Bring the pelvis into neutral coming to a place where the hip flexors are relaxed and the spine feels like it is floating up from the pelvis
  • Engage the pelvic floor to activate the deep core muscles
  • With a subtle contraction feel the belly button and ribs move towards the spine and the spine move towards the belly button and ribs
  • Allow the shoulders to fall back and down using a slight contraction at the bottom of the shoulder blades
