Grab your right calf with your left hand. Then place your left hand on the floor. Now grab your left calf with your right hand. Place your right hand on the floor. Continue this alternating body twist, grabbing your calves with the opposite hands. Place your hands on the floor. Lift your torso up. Stand up straight. Bring your feet together.

What to do if it does not work out, as in the video

1

If you feel strain in your hamstrings and your back, try bending your legs generously. Only stretch your spine and legs as far as is comfortable.

2

Relax your shoulders, allow space and length in your neck. Shake and nod your head slightly to release tension. Push your shoulder blades towards your tailbone, releasing tension from your neck.

3

Relax your abdomen while breathing, letting your abdominal wall move in and out together with the flow of your breath.

4

Always take your time to make slight adjustments in this pose in order to get comfortable, with relaxed breathing.
