Having hard time falling asleep? Here is one thing you definitely need to know

How to do it
Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you and toes flexed towards you.
Keep your spine as straight and comfortable as you can
As you inhale lift your arms up
Add length to your finger tips
As you exhale draw your navel closer to your thighs first and then fold from your upper back.
Rest your palms wherever they reach. It’s could be your shins, big toes or wrap them around your feet depending on your personal flexibility levels.
Closing your eyes take a few deep breaths and relax
Beginner’s tip
Do not force yourself to bend forward beyond your existing flexibility levels.
