You know when you’re trying to balance in a yoga pose like Tree or Crow and feel yourself wobbling? Chances are you assume you’re doing something wrong.

You’re not.

Your feet contain 26 bones and more than 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments each. Together they take part in an intricate interplay of subtle involuntary movements that maintain your balance each moment you’re standing.

This orchestration of nuanced shifts in your muscles, tendons, and ligaments takes place largely unconsciously. Practicing poses that challenge your balance can bring your conscious awareness to the slightest sway in your stance and how your body corrects itself.
