Hello friends,
It’s time to say hello.Yoga Pose of the Week: Crescent Moon
Breath Play: Snore Breath
As you stretch in Crescent Moon pose, pretend you are a person sleeping on the moon. As you take a deep breath in, make a snoring sound. Let out a slow, soft whistle as you exhale.

Climb aboard my rocket ship.
