• Make a crouching motion like you’re sitting in a chair.
• Raise your arms above your head and maintain them there in a straight position, pointing towards the ceiling.
• Maintain this posture for thirty seconds, and at a minimum, do it four to five times.

2) Bhujangasana

• Lay down on the ground with your face pointing toward the floor.
• Now, position your hands so they are facing outward and slowly elevate your torso.
• At this stage, the only portions of your body that should be in contact with the ground are your hands and your lower body.
• Keep your body in this posture for thirty seconds, then release.
• Three to four times on a daily basis.

3) Tadasana

• Maintain an upright stance with your shoulders and legs at the same distance from one another.
• Raise your hands so that they are towards the ceiling.
• Spread your hands apart and raise your arms as high as you can.
• At this moment, bring your hands together and entangle them so that your palms are facing up toward the ceiling.
• You are strongly urged to glance toward the direction of the sky.
• Tend to this stretch for ten seconds, then do it three to five more times.

4) Vrikshasana

• Maintain an erect stance.
• Raise your arms upwards and keep them out in front of you in a straight line.
• Now, elevate one of your legs and place your foot on the thigh of the opposite leg.
• You have the option of resting your right foot on the side of your left knee or any place from that point up to your thigh.
• In a perfect world, your foot would be perched as high on your thigh as it possibly could be.
• Maintain this posture for thirty seconds, and at a minimum, do it four to five times.
