Another Try this Today - Fake Yoga for freedom and mobility

Put one hand, or foot, or knee on the ground and try to move as far as possible away from that body part. Make sure you don't jerk or strain the body- do move slowly, and wherever possible, remain in each position for a couple of relaxed breaths. To discover additional movements, try to shuffle into a new position rather than jumping or lifting the body. Treat your joints like porcelain - don't grind or crunch them into the floor…

To explore this idea, you can begin lying down, to take most of the strain off the body and foster a feeling of safety and security.
