Stand up straight. Place palms together in a namaste gesture at chest. Bend right leg at knee. Place sole on the inside of left thigh. Ensure the right knee is not jutting in front, but flared to the right. To hold the pose longer, focus on a spot in front of you. Breathe normally throughout. Release right foot back to ground. Rest. Repeat sequence for left side.
