How to do it

  1. Arch and round through the spine, one vertebra at a time.
  2. Hands under shoulders, knees under hips.
  3. Match the movement to your breath. In as you arch, out as you round.

Move within a range that feels comfortable and stop if something feels wrong. Movemint plays this with a 3D guide, a spoken countdown and a rest timer, free and offline.
