Yoga Level 1: Cross Legged Twist

Sit tall on the floor cross legged. You may want your hips raised slightly on a folded blanket.

Inhale and rotate your torso to the right. Your head stays in line with the torso. Your hips stay even.

As you turn, place your left hand on the outside of your right knee.

Your right arm extends directly out from the right shoulder. Let the right hand find the floor.

Hold for 3 to 5 breaths.

Inhale to lenthen your spine as you return to facing front.

Repeat on the other side.
