The Happy Baby
Note:
The happy baby works to open your hip joints while stretching your spine, back, and groin. This is a very relaxing pose for your mind and can help relieve anxiety. Those who are pregnant or have a knee injury should avoid performing this pose. If you have a neck injury, use a blanket to support your head.
Pose Instruction
- Begin by lying on your back.Breathe out and bend your knees toward your stomach.
- Breathe in and grasp the outsides of your feet with your hands. Spread your knees to hip width and lower them toward your upper arms.
- Pull your legs down until each ankle is straight above its knee. Flex your ankles and slowly push your feet into your hands while providing opposing force with your hands.
- Remain in this active tension point for up to 30 seconds before releasing your grasp and returning to the original position.
