When all else fails, this beautiful, restorative pose can help heal the soul. When the world is just too much to bear, kneel, sit back on your heels, and place your forehead on the floor. Grounding. Settling. Letting the chaos swirl around you, but not in you.
This pose is a beautiful stretch for the low back, the quadriceps, the ankles, and even the shoulders, if you stretch your arms out like the woman in the photo. But to me, its real benefits are emotional.
This winter come inside your self, inside your body, and breathe in child's pose.
