• From Wide Squat, bring your right arm between your knees. Try to lower your right shoulder as far under your right knee as possible, so you can bend your elbow and reach the back of your right hand up towards your waist.
• Then reach your left arm up as high as you can, bend your elbow and bring the back of your left palm to your lower back.
• Try to touch your fingers together. If they're close enough, hold your left wrist with your right hand, with the left palm facing behind you.
• Stay here for five deep breaths, then come back to Wide Squat for one complete breath to release the pose. Then do the other side.
