 | So now that we're one month into the new year, how are those resolutions going? Don't feel bad if a few have fallen by the wayside. It's easy to get too caught up in the idea of January first, when really you can start to make positive changes in your life any old day you want. | |

| Pose of the Week - Reclined Big Toe Pose
 Keeping the theme of good warm-up stretches from last week (see eye of the needle), you can't go wrong with supta padangusthasana. If your hamstrings are tight, bend your knee and put the sole of your foot on the floor (talking about the bottom leg here). Otherwise, keep both feet flexed and take some deep breaths before switching sides.
