Child’s pose

Your spine, glutes, and hamstrings are stretched and lengthened in this resting position. The child's pose helps the neck and lower back tension release.

How to do it:

• Knees should be touching, big toes should be in touch, and heels should be splayed out to the side while you sit on your shinbones.
• Walk your hands out in front of you as you bend forward at the hips.
• Go return to lowering your hips toward your feet. If your thighs won't go all the way down, support them with a pillow or folded blanket.
• Turn your head to the side or lay your forehead gently on the floor.
• Keep your arms out in front of you or put them on your body.
• Inhale deeply into your waist and ribcage's back.
• For up to five minutes, relax in this posture while continuing to inhale deeply.
