Locust Pose - Shalabasana Is the Yoga Pose of the Week

Sunday June 29, 2008
I'm always trying to get my husband to help me out with some partner stretches and he's always looking at me like I'm crazy. But even he couldn't object to this, the easiest assist ever. Just come into locust pose and have your partner stand on your feet. You'll be able to get a feeling for how much higher you can come when your feet are strongly anchored to the floor. And you'll get a nice deep backbend, which feels so good.
