The Lion's Pose gives the muscles of the jaw, throat, eyes, and face a stretch that can ease problems like teeth grinding and clenched jaws. It's also excellent preparation for a KISS concert.

To complete this How-To you will need:

Comfortable clothing suitable for stretching and moving
A calm place where you won't be distracted or disturbed
A yoga mat or folded blanket

Step 1: Sit comfortably

Sit in a comfortable position, such as kneeling, the Lotus Pose, or just sitting cross-legged.

Step 2: Place hands on floor

Exhale, and place your hands on the floor, shoulder-width apart and with your fingers spread out, about two feet in front of your knees.

Step 3: Make lion's face

Inhale deeply, and as you exhale, open your eyes as wide as possible, raise your eyebrows, roll your eyes up in their sockets, open your mouth wide, and slowly stick out your tongue like you are trying to touch your chin with it.

Tip: Some people like to add a little 'roar' as they open their mouths.

Step 4: Hold expression

Hold the facial expression for the entire length of your exhale.

Step 5: Relax face

When the exhale is done, relax your face.

Step 6: Return & repeat

Return to your comfortable sitting position. You can repeat the facial expression anytime—whether you're in the Extended Side Angle Pose or just impersonating Gene Simmons.

@ukinvasion My guess is that he could be trying to bring awareness to her temporomandibular joints in her jaw. Lots of people hold a lot of tension there.

Now there are benefits in doing the lion pose. The lion is the bravest animal in the jungle as we all know and therefore when we do this pose we get rid of the fear in our system and become a brave individual . When we exhale we also release any bad energy in us including bad breath. By removing the fear in our system as I have mentioned earlier it also relaxes our nerves and the major contributing factor it does when we roar during exhaling is that it eliminates stutter. Thank you Yoga.

if you look carefully you can see the girl has a "get me out of this fucking place" look on her face x3

@ukinvasion He's checking to see if her muscles are stretching, its like when gymnasts train splits, the instructor will touch their back to make sure their stretching as far as they can
