So, today's video is really an application of what we have already prepared, which is how
to learn how to do the tree pose, how to prepare it. So if you missed that video then please click
in the cards and watch this before you do this practice, because in this video we are going to
learn how to do tree pose step by step. So it is a tree pose yoga practice and you stand
on your left leg, bend the knee and press the right foot into the thigh, so against your
left thigh. Remember if you like my content click the like button, subscribe to the channel

to learn how to do the tree pose. So remember on the back we prepared this in the other video and
remember you need to activate your lower abdomen to get this. My knee is not in line with the hip,
so we will look at this from a different angle but although my right knee points out,
I do get a stretch at the inner thigh just as I did when I was on the back. So let me show you the
same thing from the side view. So, you turn your left foot out slightly, so like a 10 to the hour,
10 minutes to the hour, and then you lift your right foot up and your right knee
is supported by a wall. You press your right foot into the left thigh and you can see here that my
knee is slightly forward and that is because I have tension in my right hip and this is how it
should be. It is not what you see on Instagram all the time, where the knee is basically on the
same height as the, the hip, so fully further out and then you compromise at the hip, No!
You do want to get the same alignment that we prepared on the back. So turn your right foot out,
lift your left foot off the ground and press your left foot against the inner thigh.
Keep your pelvis square, your left knee pointing away and with every exhalation,
you move your left knee away from the midline, you can even have a sensation of your left hip
extending into the left knee. Your spine is long, you can push the spine
all the way through the crown of the head, and then with your inhalation, you take your arms
overhead. You can bring the palms together over your head. Notice the good work, the balance,
breathing into the body. A very, very strong pose, keep your right knee a tiny bit soft
and breathe regularly. Great job! Let's do this with a little bit more support,
so again you turn the right foot out slightly, you lift your left foot off
the ground then you open up the leg, you press your left knee into the wall,
and you stand on your right leg. Inhalation, lift your arms up, keep the pelvis square,
very strong pose. If you would like me to help you figure out what's going on in your body, then
