Libra Yoga

Yogastrology: the lower back (Libra).

Libra yoga is practiced in conjunction with Yogastrology. Libra rules the lower back.

Libra yoga is a series of gentle back bends and variations on the pose Shalabasana, a supported back bend also known as the "locust" pose. As Libra is the sign of partnership, Libra yoga includes the option of including a partner pose called the "child's pose sacrum press." The standing partner does Uttanasana, a forward bend that nurtures and rejuvenates her own lower back, while she gives a much-appreciated sacrum press to her partner in the child's pose. Partner poses show us how to take care of our partner's and our own bodies at the same time.
