Hip, Trinkle Chick, May 28, 2007.

Bonjour, this is Kimberly Wilson and welcome to the 85th edition of the Hip Trinklechick

podcast, a guide to life on and off the yoga mat.

Today's menu features a must-have pose in On the Mat, an entertaining interview with Sarah

Kramer on veganology in Off the Mat, and we've got Omwork and Savvy Sources for you, too.

View our show notes at Hiptrinklechick.com slash blog.

Continuing our new format that follows the outline of the book, we'll start with on the mat.

And today's pose is actually definitely not a pose you want to start your practice with.

So incorporate this pose into your daily yoga mat routine.

And this is a beautiful, beautiful back bend. It's called locus pose,

Shalambasana. So we begin lying on our belly. So come onto your belly on your yoga mat.

Lift your shoulders about 10 inches off the earth. Arms along the sides of the body, palms facing

down. Now go ahead and lift those legs and think of flying. Sometimes this is

translated, it's not literally translated, but described as a Superman pose, right? So you can also

bring your arms along the sides of the body interlace your hands then. And that always helps

keep my shoulders upright a little bit more, which feels nice.

Then see if you can glue those legs together. And let's take five deep full breaths. Inhale.

Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Exhale. Inhale. Inhale. Inhale. Inhale. Inhale. Exhale Inhale
