Wooden Stick

Description

In Stick Yoga, practitioners use the stick as a tool to assist in reaching further into stretches, maintaining proper alignment, and enhancing balance. The stick can also be utilized to deepen breathing exercises and meditation postures.
Some common poses in Stick Yoga include:

• Standing Forward Bend (Uttanasana): Holding the stick overhead, practitioners can use it to gently pull themselves deeper into the forward bend while keeping the spine straight.
• Triangle Pose (Trikonasana): Holding the stick horizontally, one end resting on the ground, practitioners can use it to maintain alignment in the torso and legs while reaching the top arm towards the ceiling.
• Warrior II (Virabhadrasana II): Holding the stick horizontally behind the back, practitioners can use it to maintain proper alignment of the shoulders and open the chest while holding the Warrior II pose.
• Half Moon Pose (Ardha Chandrasana): Holding the stick vertically in front of the body, practitioners can use it as a support to balance while extending one leg behind and reaching the opposite arm towards the ceiling.
• Seated Forward Bend (Paschimottanasana): Holding the stick overhead, practitioners can use it to help lengthen the spine and reach towards the feet while maintaining proper alignment.
