Deep Squat Hold
Malasana
How to
Feet slightly wider than hip-width, lower into a full squat, elbows pressing gently against the inner knees, chest lifted.
Benefits
- One of the most effective stretches for hip and ankle mobility
- Encourages a naturally relaxed, lengthened pelvic floor
- Widely used to prepare the body for labor and pelvic release
Practice
Use a rolled towel under your heels if they lift. Hold and breathe rather than bouncing.
