Want to Balance in Forearm Stand? A Yoga Sequence to Get You There

This Camel variation will open the quads, abs, and shoulders.

• From the Seated Heart Opener Pose, lift your torso so you're standing on your knees.
• Reach your right hand back, placing it on your right heel or on the mat behind your right toes. Extend your left arm in the air.
• Shift weight forward onto your knees to increase the stretch in your quads, belly, and chest. Lower your head behind you and stay here for five breaths. Switch sides, holding for another five breaths, and then lift the torso up to release.
