Supine hand to foot pose, to the side (Supta Padangusthasana II)

Using a strap, fifteen to twenty seconds, two times on each side. 

Start by lying on your back, with your knees bent and the soles of your feet on the floor. 

Next, bring your right leg into your chest, wrap a cotton yoga strap around the arch of the foot, straighten your leg until it is perpendicular to the floor, and then transfer both ends of the strap to your right hand. Hold the strap with a light grip. 

Straighten your left leg along the ground, then allow your right leg to drop out to the side and pull it up toward your shoulder.


Keep your shoulders dropped and your hips level. 

Breathe through your nose, keeping your breath soft, and relax your temples and your throat. 

Hold the pose for approximately fifteen to twenty seconds. 

Repeat on the other side.
