Ardha Chandrasana – Half Moon Pose
❌ Common Mistakes:
🦶 Floppy top foot, weak ankle
✋ Top hand and arm unengaged
🤸‍♀️ Hand & foot too close – poor balance & alignment
🌀 No leg activation – hips collapse
🔻 Result: Instability, lack of core strength, and risk of injury.
✅ Better with a Block:
🦶 Foot flexed, toes spread, arch lifted
💪 Hand vibrant, arm active
🦵 Inner thigh hugs to bone, energy extends through heel
🟩 Block creates space for optimal alignment
✅ On the Floor (No Props):
✨ Floating ribs lift, back supported
🔁 Outer spiral on standing leg
➿ Inner spiral top leg
✅ Natural lumbar curve (no back sway)
🙌 Reaching from heart through top hand
✅ Floating (Advanced):
↕️ Extend & draw energy through both legs
❤️ Expand through chest and heart
➡️ Gaze toward thumb
🧘‍♀️ Long side body, full-body engagement
💡 Tip: Imagine energy shooting out through your limbs in all directions. Stay rooted yet light – this pose is all about balance, strength, and expansion.
