Utthitha Trikonasana is one of the basic standing poses we learn as beginner yoga students. It may look and even feel easy at first, but after more than 10 years I'm still refining and working on it and I'm always discovering a little more space and stability each time...

Do you put other people's needs ahead of your own? What would happen if you spent a little more time loving yourself instead?

Ardha Adho Mukha Vrksasana is a bit of a mouthful(!) and a pose that's commonly taught to beginners to help build upper body, shoulder and arm strength, and begin to conquer the fear and unfamiliarity of being upside down.

What are your biggest fears? Do you avoid things and situations that scare you? What would really happen if you gave them another go?

Uttanasana is a pose that requires a bit of self-discipline and patience. At first glance it looks simple enough but it can be quite challenging, physically and mentally.

What activities do you enjoy but avoid? Why do you avoid them? Do you feel better or worse afterward?

Setu Bandha Sarvangasana is a great pose to help you slow down and let go. With the help of the block you can remain in this backbend position for longer, to experience the benefits without pushing, forcing or straining.
