Parivrtta Trikonasana using the trestle

Using the trestle for Parivrtta Trikonasana gives me the stability to extend the trunk further and access a deeper twist. The feedback I get from having my back body touching something helps me align my head, ribcage, and pelvis with my legs. This presentation allows for spaciousness in my chest and ribcage, which allows me to breathe more deeply and feel settled and calm in this simple but challenging pose. – Adia Kapoor, Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher
