From Vasisthasana, slowly let your hips get heavy and bring them down onto the floor. Lower all the way down and lie on your right side. Bend your right arm and use it to support your head; try to find a Mountain Pose–like alignment. Then externally rotate your left leg and bend your knee. Take hold of the big toe with the first two fingers of your top hand and, on an exhalation, extend the leg up toward the sky. Your top leg will likely go forward on a slight diagonal line. See what you can learn from the rocking and rolling quality of this pose. Can you draw in and expand out at the same time without tension? Look for the answer in your physical alignment and notice how that affects your breath and your mind. Work on this pose for 5 to 8 breaths, then release the top leg and roll over onto your tummy.
