What you need
Any floor that does not feel actively hostile. Optional: yoga mat, towel, cushion, or foam roller.
Preparation
Clear enough floor space to lie down without kicking furniture. Put your phone somewhere out of reach unless you are using it as a timer.
How to do it
Sit or lie down and breathe slowly. Stretch your back, shoulders, hips, and legs. Hold each stretch. Move gently. Sharp pain means stop. Finish by lying still.
