Gentle Yoga Warm up - Yoga spinal twist

From this position, moving into the next one, you're going to leave that top leg where it is and just pull the bottom leg straight. Kind of slide the foot around, so it aligns with the knee. We're just moving into a spinal twist. So you're going to take the outside arm, same arm as you have the knee up, for me it's my right arm. Inhaling up, exhale, placing it behind the back and slowly, gently twisting, over the shoulder, into a spinal twist. You can use the left arm, to press gently against the leg, if you like, to increase the stretch. Then, with every exhalation, you're using your breath to twist a little bit deeper, into the stretch. You can slowly walk your shoulder and hand, toward the back wall, turning the head more toward the back wall. Inhale, lifting, exhale twisting. The spinal twist helps loosen up the lower back and also helps to bind the kidneys and the lower intestinal a bit, to help bring out some toxins. It's very relaxing. Deep breath in and exhale, as you come out, very slowly twisting back to center, to set up your next pose. You're going to do the same two poses, on the other leg. So, from here, you want to just switch, crossing the opposite leg, opposite arms, you would pitch forward and down and lifting from that. Leaving that leg straight, other side and you would spinal twist, on the left side. Same exact thing. Using your breath, twist deeper with every stretch and exhale, slowly bringing it center and kind of just sitting and relaxing, feeling the effects of the stretches.
