Instructions

1. Sit on the ground with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.

2. Slowly lean back while keeping your back straight until you feel a stretch in your abdominal muscles.

3. Wrap your arms around your knees gently, as if hugging them. This helps stabilize your position.

4. Maintain the stretch without bouncing or pushing too hard, and keep your breathing slow and steady.

5. Hold the stretch for 15 to 30 seconds, depending on your comfort level.

6. Release the stretch slowly, returning to the starting position.

7. Repeat for 1 to 3 sets if desired.

Please note that stretches should never cause pain; only a gentle tension in the muscles should be felt. If you experience any pain, release the stretch immediately.
