Yoga tip

YOGA TIP!  I just learned from my yoga instructor today that after a pose that focuses on lengthening the spine, like the seated spinal twist for example (pose above) it's best to let that settle in after coming out of the pose.  For instance you might be tempted to lay on your back after this pose and bring your knees to your chest...or do something to sorta stretch everything out again.  DON'T  Because with these sort of poses what you're doing is training the spine to lengthen itself, and if you don't let it settle in on it's own your body will just jump back into it's regular routine.  So hold it out, and work it like a pro!
