Beginner Yoga Poses That Can Be Done From Home

Seated Twist

To assume a seated twist yoga pose, specifically Marichyasana III or Marichi's Pose in its third variation, simply sit on the floor and extend your legs out in front of you. Cross your right foot over your left thigh, bending your left knee while keeping your right knee pointed upwards. Place your right hand on the floor behind you to keep your stability and your left elbow on the outside of your right knee. Twist your torso as far as you comfortably can and hold the position for a short time. When you are finished, switch sides. By doing this seated twist, you will stretch your shoulders, hips, and neck. It is an excellent pose after a long day of work.
