When you’re still a little groggy, this one will feel really simple:


– Lie still on your back. Inhale and bend your knees such that your feet are flat on the bed
– Exhale and twist your hips, lowering your knees on the left side, keeping them bent
– Straighten your arms in line with your shoulder. Look towards your right palm
– Take a few deep breaths and stay in the position for a few seconds
– Repeat with the legs bent towards the right and head turned to the left

Why is it awesome?
• Stretches and relaxes your spine
• Strengthens your abdomen and removes toxins
• Helps in healthy digestion
#2 – Happy Baby Pose or Ananda Balasana:

To get you prepped up for a hectic day, move on to this calming pose that stimulates the body with prana (life force).


– Lie on your back with your knees bent
– Spread out your thighs and raise your knees up, holding your feet or big toe
– Gently rock your body while pushing your feet into your hands
– After a few seconds, release your hands and relax

Why is it awesome?
• Elongates your lower back and gives a good hip stretch
• Stretches inner thighs, groin, and knees

– Stretch your legs forward in front of you
– Inhale and slowly bring your arms above your head
– As you exhale, bend forward from your hips bringing your arms in line with the head
– Lengthen your spine and place your hands anywhere on your legs. If it’s comfortable, touch your toes. You can bend your knees slightly if you feel pain in the back
– Let your head rest in between your arms and breathe normally
– Inhale and come back up. Relax.

Why is it awesome?
• Stretches the spine, shoulders and hamstrings
• Stimulates the liver, kidneys, ovaries, and uterus
