Reclining Bound Angle Pose

Lie on back on mat with buttocks touching wall and legs extended up wall. Lay baby on abdomen or place on mat beside you.

Widen legs sideways, bend knees, and place soles of feet together. Allow heels to descend toward pelvic floor. For additional inner thigh stretch, press thighs to wall. 

If baby is sleeping, close your eyes and relax. With each exhalation release inner thighs, spine, and facial muscles. Rest arms at sides and breathe normally.

Remain in pose 5 minutes. To release, place baby beside you, lift legs, bring knees together, roll onto one side, and sit up with back resting on wall.

This pose relaxes back and stretches inner thigh muscles.
