Stand straight with your feet together and your hands by your side in Tadasana, the Mountain Pose.
Inhale as you bend your left leg and grab hold of your ankle from the outside with your left hand.
Push out your left foot and lift the leg higher, till your left ankle and shoulders are aligned.
Reach out diagonally upward with your right hand.
Keeping your right leg straightened, flex as you pull up the kneecap.
Settle your gaze upon a point to help stay in balance.
Breathe deeply as you hold the pose for 10-15 seconds.
Exhale as you gently release the left ankle and shift back to Tadasana.
Repeat the process, this time raising the right leg and staying in pose for the same length of time as before.
For the advanced position, hold the ankle with both hands and bring the sole of your foot onto the back of your head.

This pose tones and strengthens the legs, expands the chest and stretches the thighs, groin and abdomen.
It also improves your balance and aids digestion.
