Vrksasana (Tree Pose)
Stand tall, with your arms raised above your head, as you do in Tadasana or the mountain pose. Bend your right knee and rotate your right thigh outward. Make sure your pelvis does not turn. Take your right foot off the ground and place it above your ankle or knee of your left leg. Bring your palms in front of your chest. Keep your head straight ahead. Repeat on the other side.
Utthita Parsvakonasana (Extended Side Angle Pose)
Your beginning position should look like Virabhadrasana II or the Warrior II pose. From there lengthen your torso and lower your left forearm onto your left thigh. Stretch your right arm up and over your right ear. Now, stretch your right leg straight. Repeat it on your other side.
Salabhasana (Locust Pose)
Lie face-down with your arms alongside your torso. Lift your chest up as you raise your legs and stretch them out behind you. At the same time, lift your upper body without straining. Make sure your arms are stretched out along your torso. Your palms should be facing down.
Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward-Facing Dog)
Assume the tabletop position with toes tucked under feet and heels raised. Lengthen your spine and raise it toward the ceiling. Maintain a slight bend in your knees. Make sure your ears should be in line with your upper arms or move your chin towards your chest. Hold the position for up to 1 minute. Repeat it at least 1 to 3 times.
