Benefits of the Half Moon Pose: Stronger ankles, knees and lower body. This pose improves focus, balance, confidence and concentration. - Start in a lunge with the left foot forward, take a deep breath and lean forward toward the left leg, placing your hands on the floor. - Keeping it straight, lift your right leg behind you and try to make it parallel with the floor. - Straighten your left leg. - Lift your right arm toward the sky, perpendicular to the floor. - Really open up your hips and shoulders so they’re facing the side wall. - Look up at the sky. - Modifications: If need be, you can use a yoga brick under your left hand. If you can an advanced skill level, have the lower hand hover 1-2 inches above the floor and balance with the foot on the floor. Try Ardha Candrāsana and let me know what you think below!
