Stretch toxins out with this yoga move (pictured above) that brings nutrient-rich blood to your organs. Follow these steps to feel rejuvenated, refreshed and revived.
1. Sit on the floor, knees bent, feet flat. Slide right foot under left leg, place right knee outside of left ankle and right heel by your butt.
2. Inhale deeply and reach right arm up, lengthening spine.
3. Exhale deeply and twist to your left, bringing right elbow to the outside of your left knee and pushing to twist further your left knee and pushing to twist further (as shown).
4. Lengthen your spine on each inhale and twist deeper with each exhale, using Lion's Breath: mouth wide-open, tongue out, exhaling with an audible ''hahhh.''
Continue for 5 breaths.
5. Untwist and repeat the pose on the other side
