There are many variations of Moon Salutations, but this one feels the most grounding to me—since we stay close to the mat the entire time, with no standing poses. As the name suggests, Moon Salutations are practiced in honor of the moon, which carries a calm, cool, and feminine energy—quite the contrast to the fiery, masculine energy of Sun Salutations. This makes them a beautiful choice if you're looking for a gentle, soothing way to wind down your day.
