3) Exhale, turn your head to the right with your body and look at the heel of your right foot, hold for 6 seconds, and breathe naturally while maintaining the posture.

4) Follow your natural breathing and slowly turn your head forward. Now the entire center of gravity is concentrated on the waist and abdomen, the arms are stretched forward, the feet are straight together, and the insteps are on the ground.

5) Exhale, turn your head to the left with your body and look at the heel of your left foot. Hold for 6 seconds. Breathe naturally while maintaining the posture. While turning around, don't forget to keep the instep of your feet close to the ground.

6) Slowly turn your head forward, exhale, slowly bend your elbows downward, and then enter the final relaxation step of yoga. After each set of yoga, don't forget to perform relaxation exercises to relieve tight muscles and bones.
