Marichyasana 1. We're going to begin by extending your left leg, grounding both sit bones, so
that we find equal; that we're lifting the spine. And then we're going to go ahead, and
step the left foot, and we're going to bring it as close to your bottom as is available
to you. We're going to keep the heel in line with the knee, in line with your hip. And
the inhale this time is going to extend the left arm, and on the exhale we're going to
open to the left, twisting the spine, you can invite your right hand into the right
foot; lengthening the spine, twisting from below the right shoulder blade. Shoulders
are coming down; create length between your shoulders and your ears. Again, being able
to breathe and relax in your poses is what's going to allow you to deepen your poses, so
that over time you feel the relaxation effect of yoga.
