A perfect beginner’s backbend! Sphinx is a Pose I practice almost daily.
Its name in Sanskrit, "Salamba Bhujangasana" (sah-LOM-bah boo-jahn-GAHS-uh-nuh), comes from four Sanskrit words:
* "Sa" — meaning "with"
* "Alamba" — meaning "support"
* "Bhujanga" — meaning "cobra" or "serpent"
* "Asana" — meaning "pose"
Enjoy & incorporate it into your personal practice!
NAMASTE!
