Tara Stiles: Pigeon

Feeling stressed and can't sleep? That's the time, Tara says, to move into Pigeon, since it helps calm the body and mind by releasing built-up tension. And for those times you feel completely overwhelmed, go deeper by moving into Pigeon Crescent, which will help to further open the chest and spine. Most importantly, Tara says, connect with your breath: "Your pose should feel easy with deep breaths helping to guide you from the inside out — no struggling; no clenching; slow, slow, slow."
