"SCOTT SOLLER: Hi, my name is Scott Soller, yoga instructor, here on behalf of Expert Village. From standing mountain pose, have the weight more at the balls of the feet, letting your toes and heels stabilized. And the navel comes in, the tail points down, rooting the feet further. Inhale into your vital center. Exhaling, unfurl the arms. Find a gaze point. And then shifting weight to your left leg, hold your right leg up, eventually bringing your foot to the inner thigh, if possible, and pressing that foot in, the outer thigh to the inner thigh to sole. Bring the palms together at the emotional balance center of the heart chakra. As you root it down, simultaneously branch up, find a gaze point as you strengthen the Ajna chakra or your third eye point, the inner, invisible muscle. The chin tucked in a little bit. Remembering trees move in the breeze, just like the inner currents and the winds move your inner tree. When you are ready to release, go down and out and simply accelerate at the end, exhaling and release."
