The mythology goes that the peacock is one of the only predators of the cobra, because it can digest its poison. Metaphorically speaking, if you know you can handle something no matter how intimidating or confrontational, there's no need to be afraid. This practice peaks in peacock pose, but peacock pose is not recommended if you are dealing with wrist injuries, or if you're pregnant! Please pick another class for today if that's you. Peacock pose requires balance, focus, and strength, it can aid digestion, and it strengthens the core, arms, chest, shoulders, thighs and wrists. Enjoy, yogis!
