Come Up Higher On the Toes


Above: my beautiful friend Bailey executing a fantastic toe stand on the beach.

Toe stand is one of those crazy postures that doesn't seem possible at all when you first start Bikram yoga. I love it because the entire standing series prepares you for it: pure concentration, only the breath and the body, intense focus. 

Cowboy boots: fun to wear year round.

Toe stand: an under-appreciated master posture. It stretches the feet, the heel, the mind.

Cowboy boots: they give you incredible ass-kicking power!


How is your toe stand going? Does it make you feel powerful and centered? Which postures help calm your mind?
