Noose Posture

Pasasana This challenging twisting posture, where the arms wrap rope-like around the legs, works the ankles and shoulders as well as giving the abdomen a strong twist. Until your heels happily come down to the floor, balance will be an added requirement of this posture.

1 From Mountain Pose (page 46), squat down fully to sit on your heels with the knees together. Do not let your feet turn out, but keep the toes together. Rotate your abdomen fully to the right and put your right hand on the floor to balance. Deepen the twist by pressing the left hand to the outer right thigh, while also resisting with the thigh.

2 Continue releasing into this twist by pressing the left elbow against the left knee as you lever into the deepest possible twist. Let your heels come closer or completely, to the floor. Bring your left shoulder forward, your right shoulder back, and lift the chest. Don’t lean back—lengthen forward and upward from the base of the spine. Keep the knees facing forward. Take a few breaths.
