Hanumanasana is a beautiful pose to stretch and open our hamstrings. It also asks us to slow down and prepare our bodies in a way to receive this intense pose. The sequence is designed to educate and open your body, mind, and energy to create a healthy shape that feels supportive and spacious. With one leg in the past and one leg in the future, it's a lovely reminder to keep your head and heart in the present and listen to the intuition and intelligence of your body!
