Pose of the Day
Bharadvaja's Twist (Bharadvajasana)
Try it for: 6 breaths each side
No need to make it fancy—Bharadvaja's Twist. Sit tall and twist without yanking. Think ‘wring out’ not ‘crank.’. Add a tiny challenge if you want. If it feels good: Hold longer and soften shoulders.
- Make it easier: Sit on a blanket for height.
- Make it stronger: Hold longer and soften shoulders.
- Props: Blanket
Listen to your body. If anything hurts (sharp pain, pinching, numbness), back off or skip it. If you're working with an injury or are pregnant, check with a qualified professional.
