How to do it

Lie on your back, press the soles of your feet together, and let the knees drop slowly open to the sides. Rest the arms beside the body and settle into the breath.

What it should feel like

The inner thighs opening gently under gravity alone, the whole body sinking toward the floor.

Common mistakes

Forcing the knees down to the floor. Cushions under the knees let the legs release completely.
