Bananasana

With the shoulders, spine and hips flat to the ground, the legs and arms are outstretched and walked as far over to one side as possible for this deep body stretch. The wrist can be grabbed or the arms can be stretched simply high overhead.	This is a common mistake that students make: to get the maximum benefit from the pose, be sure to instruct the students to keep their hips and shoulders down on the ground and focus on stretching the side of the body.	Cue students to make their arms stretch overhead to ensure the deepest stretch is experienced. Stretch arms outreached also stimulates the lung, large intestine, heart, small intestine and gallbladder meridians.
To bring a deeper stretch, bring the outside leg over the inside leg crossing at the ankles.	Be sure to do this relaxing stretch on both the left and right side of the body!
