Reclining cross-legged pose (Supta Svastikasana)

Five minutes. Set up for the pose by placing a bolster (or folded blankets) on your mat to support your torso and a folded blanket on top of the bolster to support your head so that your forehead is slightly higher than your chin. 

Sit in front of the bolster (not on it) and lie back. 

Cross one leg over the other, placing support under your thighs if you feel any tension in your groins.

You can also use a strap around your legs to increase abdominal relaxation. 

Halfway through the exercise, switch the cross of your legs.
