I highly recommend stretching your legs! Your standing balance poses will thank you. And so will your stress levels (especially when they need to take a break).
I hope this video inspires you, to try some of these leg stretches and leg lifts.
Now, recline. Lie down!
Take it easy. One leg at a time.
Hug your knee to your chest. Compress.
Then basket your hands behind your thigh.
Find the muscle belly (not the tendons behind the knee)
Breath.... Relax.... Explore.
Carry the basket of your hands beyond your knee to your calf if you can keep your leg extended (knee straight). If not, keep nurturing your hamstrings or return to hugging your knee to your chest.
Practice a few leg lifts with this leg, then see how you can stretch your leg up without the help of your hands. Feel the burn! Your back should still be comfortably resting on the ground.
Then switch to the second side.
After you have stretched both your legs with the basket of your hands, and challenged you stretch with no hands.... play with some leg lifts to strengthen your core.
Enjoy!
