Exhale and extend your right leg straight up. Walk your hands up the strap until the elbows are fully extended. Keep your neck relaxed and make sure you are not throwing your head back.
Lengthen the back of the leg between the heel and buttock bone. Try not to be overly enthusiastic about pulling your leg toward your chest. Instead emphasize the grounding of your left leg as you draw your arms back into their sockets and lift your collarbones.
Stay for 30 seconds to one minute breathing evenly. Slowly release. Repeat on the left side.
