Our 3rd chakra, solar plexus or manipura, is associated with our sense of personal power, will, and drive. It is here that we define ourselves and feel empowered and confident. In this practice we are working with the Lung/Lg Intestine meridians to bring balance to this power center of the body - adding some deep twists to help with digestion. Enjoy!
