This is an excellent pose to improve digestion, stretching the calf, hamstring and lower back, opening of the hips, spinal flexibility and increase circulation to the liver and kidneys.
Points to Keep in Mind:
- Widen legs approximately 90 degrees
- Turn your torso to align the extended leg
- On the exhalation, extend forward and hold foot with both hands
- Press ball of foot into the hands
- Extend from low belly
- Root tailbone down and draw sides of waistline back
- Lead with your heart
- Bring forehead toward upper shin
- Stay in pose for several breaths
Om!
