The Yoga Wheel

No matter if it's your second time on your mat or if handstands are like second nature to you; the yoga wheel can help you progress in your practice. That's exactly why this bad boy is going in my list of favorites, the possibilities are endless. Some days I use my wheel at the beginning of my practice to help open up my spine, while other days I use it to help me progress in my more advanced asanas, like dancers pose. So no matter where you are in your journey, if you're looking for a new prop to play with give the yoga wheel a try. 

Here are a couple of my favorite ways to use my wheel: 
  • Place it between your shoulder blades and lay your arms out in a T by your sides. This is a great heart opener.
  • Come into a high plank position with your wheel underneath the tops of your feet, roll yourself forwards and backwards engaging your core and working on the mobility in your wrists.
  • Sit on top of the wheel and try to find your balance in a boat pose (make sure that there's nothing near by that you might accidentally roll into).
  • Go into camel pose with the wheel between your feet, then grab the wheel and roll yourself backwards. This will help you work towards little thunderbolt pose.
