Yoga: Standing wide leg forward fold.

Yoga.

Place the feet wide apart, big toes facing in, heels facing out, place the hands on the floor with a straight spine. Tuck the chin in to gently lengthen the cervical vertebrae. Lift the sigmoid up towards the sky and gently push down through all four corners of the feet. Maintain a neutral and straight spine. Pull the navel towards the spine to contract the abdominals and lift the pelvic floor muscles. Keep the legs straight and the kneecaps lifted to contract the quadricep muscles. Maintain this posture for 5 to 10 deep breaths.

Increases the flexibility of the abductors, groin and hamstring muscles. Alleviates lower-back pain. Tones the legs and strengthens the ankles. Calms the mind and increases the blood circulation to the lower legs and spine. Helps to increase the energy in the second chakra.
