While in bed, lie on your back and bring the soles of your feet together, allowing your legs to fall to the sides in a diamond shape. Raise your arms above your head and lengthen your neck. (You can place a pillow under your head or shoulders to ease any tension.) Then hover your pelvis over the mattress for a moment to straighten your lower back, dipping your tailbone toward your feet. Hold for about 12 breaths.
