TREEmendous Tuesday

When you pretend to be a tree, it helps reduce anxiety, relieve a scattered mind or channel frenetic energy.  It also helps you feel stable in your body, steady in your mind and balanced in your mood and emotions.

Take a deep breath and stand tall.  Press the sole of one foot to the ankle, lower leg, or thigh.  Your balancing leg is straight and strong, but don't lock your knee.  You can raise your "branches" high to help with balance.  Squeeze your tummy muscles if you wobble.  Breathe!  Try it on the other side.  It's helpful to find a focal point if it's difficult to balance.   "Be a tree" for a TREEmendous Tuesday!

Wanna know why you should take a five-minute yoga break?? Remember when I flew back and forth to Chicago?  Here's thoughts from my teacher of that 95-hour children yoga teacher certification:  http://yogachicago.com/2018/10/five-minute-yoga-breaks-in-school/?fbclid=IwAR2noiqpihNYd4fF-lWcDLAiP4NMMe08Zf8zKijS6QgqZxh74aivDDL45w0 #mrsbroamhats #mrsbroamMOVES #beatree 🌲🌳🌴🎄 #focus #balance #steady
