Stand up straight. Bend the right leg. Place the back of the right foot against the left thigh, as high up as possible. If that is difficult, place it where you can on the left thigh.
Join your hands overhead (or at the chest) in a namaste gesture. Hold the pose, breathing normally. Relax and repeat with the other leg.
Points to note: This is an advanced version. For a simpler variation, place the sole of the right foot on the inside of the left thigh.
Benefits: Same as the Crescent, Dancing Shiva and Eagle poses.
