Happy Baby

How to do it

  1. Lie on your back and draw both knees toward your armpits.
  2. Hold the outsides of the feet, or the backs of the thighs if you cannot reach the feet.
  3. Open the knees wider than the torso and flex the feet.
  4. Gently pull the feet down as you keep the tailbone and shoulders on the floor.
  5. Hold for the set time, breathing steadily. Rock side to side only if it stays comfortable.
