Make large, circular movements over both feet, again trying to take the hands over the toes on the forward swing and coming as far back as possible on the backward swing. Practise 10 times in each direction. Breathing: Inhale while leaning back. Exhale while moving forward. Awareness: On the breath, movement and lower back, hips and pelvic area.
