Lie down, facing upward, with the feet together, palms at your sides. Inhale, and raise the right leg up to an angle of about 30 degrees. Bend the right knee, catching the knee with both hands and pressing into the chest. Exhale, and raise your head, touching the forehead to the knee. Inhale and bring the head back to the ground. Stretch the right leg forward at an angle of about 30 degrees. Exhale, and bring the right leg back to the ground. Repeat the steps with the left leg. Next do the steps with both legs together. Repeat a second time first with the right leg, then with the left leg, and finally with both legs together. Rest in Shav Asana
