Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you. Bend your knees and bring the soles of your feet together, allowing your knees to fall out to the sides. Hold onto your ankles or feet with your hands. Sit up tall and lengthen your spine. Gently press your knees down towards the floor, feeling a stretch in your inner thighs. Hold this position for a few breaths. To release, slowly bring your knees back up and extend your legs.
