Spinal Flex



2. Spinal Flex (Camel Ride)

Start in rock pose sitting on the heels with hands on the thighs, the spine is straight, chin tucked in.. If you cannot sit in the rock pose sit tall in easy pose with the legs crossed

Spinal flex helps to bring flexibility to the spine and creates tapa that activates, energizes and moves Kundalini. The head and shoulders should remain fairly stable. The flex should be concentrated at the 3rd lumbar vertebrae of the spine and in vagrassan at the 4th vertebrae. Spinal flexes help to increase the spine's flexibility and are excellent warm-up exercises for yoga poses such as shoulder stand and cobra pose.
