Half Wheel

Begin lying flat on your back with your arms along the sides of your body and your palms facing down.
Bend your knees, and place your feet flat on the floor. Walk your heels as close as you can to your butt.
With your palms and feet pressing firmly into the ground, lift your hips up, keeping your thighs parallel.
Bring the hands underneath the hips for support. Rock your weight from side to side so you can bring your elbows underneath the wrists and shoulder blades closer together.
Stay here for five deep breaths, actively pressing your feet into the floor to lift up your hips and increase the stretch in your torso and neck.
