K is forever pulling out my yoga mat to “exercise” or spontaneously busting a yoga pose. We love Legs-Up-The-Wall (Viparita Karani), especially when settling down for bed.

inviting mindfulness: the heart at rest ~ mudra of the inner self
Mudra of the Inner Self[1]
With the hands held in prayer position,
the thumbs represent the Inner Self—
surrounded by a temple of your creation.
Touching the Heart,
Nurture the Self with Breath & Loving Awareness.
Acknowledge your Commitment to
Compassionate Self-Understanding & Well-Being.
Smile & Bow Deeply to your Self with Gratitude.
