For a first trimester student with front thigh flexibility.
Arrange pillows to form a wedge shape. Kneel with back to pillows, separate feet, support body weight with hands, and lower buttocks onto mat.
Stretch feet straight back alongside hips and squeeze knees closer together. Place narrow edge of pillow wedge to tailbone. Lower spine onto pillows, support head with small pillow, and relax arms on mat.
Close eyes and deepen breath. Concentrate on expanding chest with each breath. To release, press down with hands, lift chest, and sit upright. Bend forward and rest forehead on folded arms. Sit up and extend legs.
This pose stretches front thighs and improves digestion.
