Practicing yoga first thing in the morning offers you a way to clear your mind and get your body ready for the day. Energizing poses, such as backbends and sun salutations, feature prominently in a morning session. Yoga in the morning sets the tone for the day. It gives you time to set goals and reflect on the ways you'll deal with challenges posed by your family, friends and coworkers. - Livestrong.com Day Four: The Triangle Pose Triangle pose is an ideal way to pinpoint the stress we carry in our lower backs. It also opens the shoulder and extends the neck — two places where tension lives. Moreover, Triangle requires focused concentration and attention to the breath to keep the ego from making us feel inadequate or unsteady. This breath, and total presence in the moment is the single most powerful tool in relieving stress. - Camille Dodson The triangle pose offers both solace and release of all the anxieties and feelings you store in your body. It also can become a reminder to stay emotionally present to yourself, on a day-to-day basis, so that your feelings can be processed and released as they arise.
Meditation Moment: take a moment just to focus on breathing slowly and deeply. Open your heart to letting go of any toxic feelings you have been carrying around, and as you breathe in, breathe in comfort. As you breathe out, let go of tension and stress. See you tomorrow!

That pose took me a while to learn because of the balance issue. It is a great pose, however, and I think that I can do it. Hmmm...

I had trouble with it, too. But I was glad I tried it, because I could tell it would be worth mastering it. It was a great stretch for my back, for one thing.
