Instructions
1. Start by sitting on the floor with your legs crossed (or in a comfortable seated position that allows you to maintain balance and posture).
2. Keep your back straight, and engage your core muscles.
3. Place your left hand on your right knee and your right hand behind you for support.
4. Gently rotate your torso to the right, leading with your shoulders, and look over your right shoulder to achieve a stretch in your spine and oblique muscles.
5. Hold this stretch for 15-30 seconds, breathing deeply and evenly, keeping the rest of your body as relaxed as possible.
6. Slowly rotate back to the center and then repeat the stretch on the other side by placing your right hand on your left knee and your left hand behind you, rotating your torso to the left.
7. Repeat this stretch 2-4 times on each side, ensuring you move into and out of the stretch slowly and without any sudden movements.
