Kneel, place your hands on the floor and step your legs back. Straighten them only as far as comfortable and lift your tailbone. Lower onto your forearms with your feet shoulder-width apart and parallel. Lengthen your back and let your heels move toward the floor without forcing them. Breathe freely. Bend your knees, sit back on your heels and rest your hands on your thighs.

If It’s Difficult

1
Bend your knees slightly if the backs of your legs feel too tight or your back rounds. Relax your shoulders and neck; let your head move gently if it helps release tension. Allow your abdomen to move naturally with your breath and take time to settle into a comfortable position.
