Seated Forward Bend - Paschimottanasana is the Pose of the Week

By , About.com GuideOctober 8, 2006

Follow me on:

Paschimottanasana and other forward bends really benefit from working with the breath. Rather than rushing into your forward bend, come forward over the legs slowly. On each inhale, lengthen the spine, and on each exhale bend more deeply. Slowly but surely you will come into your maximum pose.
