Child's Pose

1. Kneel on the mat with big toes touching and knees hip-width apart (or wider for comfort).

2. Sit back on your heels, exhale, and fold forward, bringing your torso between your thighs.

3. Extend your arms forward, palms down, or rest them alongside your body with palms up.

4. Rest your forehead on the mat, using a block or blanket for support if needed.

5. Breathe deeply into your back body, feeling your ribs expand with each inhale.

6. Soften your shoulders away from your ears and release any tension.

7. Stay for as long as comfortable, focusing on deep, calming breaths.
