Try this series for a practice that promises to increase flexibility.
OM: Chant three times. BREATHING EXERCISE: Sit in Easy Pose and slowly deepen your breathing. Then touch your bottom ribs. Notice how they move when you are breathing. Feel the space in between the bottom rib and the one above it. Then touch the next rib up. Keep going all the way up. Notice the solid feeling of your ribs, the texture between them, and the delicate power of your breath.
WARM-UP VINYASA: Repeat this sequence slowly four times:
SUN SALUTATION: Do the following sequences four times, twice on each side: On the third Sun Salutation, add warriors I and II to the right side after Down Dog. On the fourth add Warriors I and II to the left side. MINI STANDING VINYASA: Hold Eagle Pose for five breaths with the right leg wrapped around the left, hooking the toes around the calf, and the right arm under the left. Then unwind the right leg and lift it directly into Tree Pose for eight breaths. Slowly lift the arms overhead, then lower them and repeat to the other side. FEATURED SEQUENCE: Perform the flexibility sequence twice—once leading with the right leg, then leading with the left.
CLOSING POSE: Do Savasana for 10 minutes. MEDITATION: Sit for five to 10 minutes. OM: Chant three times.
