STEP 1:

Come onto all fours. See that your shoulders are above your wrists and your hips are above your knees. Walk your hands forward a few inches and curl your toes under.

STEP 2:

As you exhale, move your buttocks halfway back toward your heels. Keep your arms active; don't let your elbows touch the ground.

STEP 3:

Drop your forehead to the floor or to a blanket and let your neck relax. Keep a slight curve in your lower back. To feel a nice long stretch in your spine, press the hands down and stretch through the arms while pulling your hips back toward your heels.

STEP 4:

Breathe into back, feeling the spine lengthen in both directions. Hold for 30 seconds to a minute, then release buttocks down onto heels.
