With all intermediate yoga asanas, you should listen to your body. Only go to 70% of your maximum possible movement. If you are injured or have a serious mobility problem, keep to 40% and gradually aim to work up to 70%. If the asana involves ONE leg or arm, remember to execute the asana(s) equally on both sides and in particular be aware or present – In other words concentrate on what is happening within the body whilst you are doing these exercises.
