Lie on your back. Bend your knees and place your feet wider than hip-width apart on your bed.Carrie Cockburn/The Globe and Mail
Let your knees fall gently to the right. Pause, then use the left side of your waist to pull your knees back to their starting position.Carrie Cockburn/The Globe and Mail
Repeat on the opposite side by dropping your knees to the left. Alternate side to side for eight reps, or until your back and hips feel more awake.Carrie Cockburn/The Globe and Mail
