ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Samakonasana

Samakonasana is a yoga pose where you sit down and spread your legs out into a V shape. It's like sitting down to make a snow angel, but without moving your arms.

To do it, you sit on the ground with your legs in front of you. Then, you spread your legs apart until your feet are as far apart as they can go. Your toes should be pointing up towards the ceiling.

You want to make sure that your spine is straight and your shoulders are relaxed. You can use your hands to support yourself behind you or place them on the ground in front of you.

Samakonasana is a good stretch for your inner thighs, hips, and lower back. It can also help with your flexibility and balance. Remember to breathe deeply and hold the pose for as long as is comfortable for you.
