Twister Thursday

As we have discussed before in this blog, Yoga was invented in India by a rabbit. It is still practiced by rabbits, but not in a class setting, rather is it integrated throughout the buns daily activities. Here, Amelia demonstrates a simple seated twisted pose. You have most likely seen your rabbit do same. Twists help maintain a supple spine and gently massage the intestines. Although humans can by no means achieve the level of cuteness that a rabbit can, we can, like our bunny teachers, integrate gentle twists and stretches into daily life.

Monday Bunday

Stretching and meditation is an important part of every rabbit's daily cuteness maintenance ritual. In order to nurture maximum cute Qi the mind must be calm but open, meditation is helpful in attaining this state.


Often, as Amelia demos here, stretching and meditation can be combined with the ancient healing art of Yoga which was invented in India by a rabbit.



The pose she shows here helps to open the shoulders and align the top of the torso with the hips giving the lungs, heart and stomach (not to be confused with the lower intestines) space to re-settle into beneficial positions. If your bunnies try this at home be aware that the positioning of a brick at one hip is entirely optional.



Have a great week everyone and when in doubt be a bunny.
