Raise your knees and pull them up and towards you and then clasp around your knees with your arms. Your feet must not touch the chair and you must keep your back straight. Hold for a count of five, and then lowered your legs slowly to the floor. Repeat 3 times.

2. Breathe normally and stand straight. Take your left arm and reach behind your back as far as you can reach. Now take your right hand and reach over your right shoulder, reach your left hand up your back and try to touch or hold your fingers. Hold for the count of 5, now reverse hands. Repeat 3 times with each arm.

3. Stand with your legs apart, toes pointed to the sides. Keep your hips square to the front. Place your hands on your hips, keeping your legs straight; gently push your left hip over to the right. Feel the stretch on the inside of your left thigh, hold for the count of 10 then release. Repeat 5 times to both sides.

Slowly slide your feet towards your buttocks until your knees are raised Then gently slide them back down the bed and point your toes. Repeat 4 times.
