Welcome to day 22! The four-limbed staff pose is really just a low plank. This pose shouldn’t be performed if you have wrist or shoulder injuries.

To perform: Beginning in plank pose. Inhale and shift shoulders forward slightly. Exhale, bend your elbows keeping them directly over your wrists. Slowly lower your body into a straight line. Your elbows should hug the body and your shoulders should be at a 90-degree angle from the elbows. Breathe slow and steady. Hold pose for 30 seconds then lower yourself to prone position.

Benefits of Four-Limbed Staff Pose:

• Strengthens arms & back muscles

• Improves endurance

Stay safe and have a great day! 😷 Come back tomorrow for another pose.
