This gentle stretch can help relieve tension in the hips, lower back, and glutes.
Instructions
- Lie flat on your back with both legs extended.
- Bring one knee toward your chest, holding underneath the thigh or shin—not directly on the kneecap.
- Gently pull the knee closer toward your nose until you feel a stretch.
- Hold the stretch for 20–30 seconds, then switch legs and repeat.
