Balancing with the Equinox (that's on the 20th!!)—
The myth is that you can balance an egg on its end on the equinox-- but what about a person on one leg?
This chimera of a posture is a combination of good ol’ tree pose and uthitha hasta padangusthasana.
Use it to develop and research:
-active mobility: try not to use your hand to put the foot into place.
-balance: watch how you have to micro adjust while changing leg positions.
-irradiation: use anjali mudra to create and keep useful tension/tensile integrity in the body.
The posture facilitates neuromuscular development, end range of motion strength, and of course heightens proprioceprion.
