Change sides. Press left elbow against right knee, and twist torso toward right. Bend right elbow and place right hand on wall to increase twist. 

To release, remove hand from wall, separate knees slightly, and stretch torso for- ward between legs. Relax forehead on floor. Release and sit upright.

This pose helps align spinal vertebrae, massages back muscles, and stretches outer hip muscles.
