I think even people who are complete strangers to yoga have heard the words “sun salutation”. Or at least, some kind of salutation!
Truth is there are many different forms of sun salutations. There is also the moon salutation!
The sun salutation is great to free the joints, massages the digestive system, boosts the immune system and helps to improve flexibility (in the body, and maybe in the mind too???).

But remember that we all have a different, unique, body. This means there are
as many different sun salutations as there are people in the world.
Crazy, no?

Listen to your body, your breath, and enjoy.
You can find your own gentle sun salutation.
You can explore with how you feel in the different movements. You can take as much time as you want.
