Begin by kneeling. Then separate your feet behind you as you lower your butt between them toward the floor, bringing your knees together. Modification: Keep your knees hip-width apart until you develop more flexibility and place a block or two under your sit bones if they don’t reach the floor when you sit back.
Press the tops of your feet into the floor, point your toes straight back, and keep your thighs parallel to each other. Sit up tall and take two breaths here.
When you’re ready, slowly walk your hands back behind you and rest your weight on your forearms. Relax your shoulders away from your ears. Gaze softly upward for two breaths. To go even further, release your back completely to the floor or to rest on a block. Relax your hands down by your sides. Keep your gaze up. Stay here for 5 to 10 breaths or as long as 15 minutes.
To come out of the pose, lift yourself back up to your forearms. Then use your ab strength as you walk your hands forward, bringing your torso back upright.
