Refresh

Hi everyone,

After a while away from yoga class (because I don't believe in going to class when it's a triple-digit oven outside), I started up again last week. As usual, I realize how much I've missed yoga within the first five minutes of practice--even if I feel like a creaky old lady. One of my favorite poses is Triangle.

Here, Mini demonstrates it:

• Place your back foot parallel with the back of your mat and your front foot toward the top of your mat, pointed ahead.

• Outstretch your arms, facing toward the top of your mat.

• Reach your front arm as far as you can before bending from the hip and placing your hand on your shin, ankle, or foot.

• Stretch your opposite arm toward the sky.

• Turn your gaze upward.

• Breathe.

• Use your core to lift and stretch in these opposing directions, maintaining your balance, as if between two panes of glass.

Be sure to do both sides!

Ahhh, refreshing!

And, breathe…
