Step 2
Reach for your big toe. Grab it with your right hand and straighten both legs. You should now be standing on your left leg with your right leg extended straight in front of you being held by your right arm, which should also be straight. Take in a deep breath.

Step 4
Open your left arm to the side and hold it in a strong, flat stance. As you open your arm think about opening up your chest and expanding your ribcage. Push down your shoulders and lengthen your spine. Turn your head to the left while maintaining your pose. Inhale and exhale 5 deep breaths.

Step 5
Turn your head to the right and take in 5 more deep breaths and exhales. Turn your head back to the center for 5 more breaths. Slowly release your leg and bring your arms and leg to the floor as slowly as you can. Repeat on the opposite side. Enjoy!
