  1.  Lie gently on your back with both knees bent and angled slightly to one side of your body. Stretch your arms out to your sides and lay you palms flat on the ground. Once you're in position, gently twist your head in the opposite direction of your knees so that your cheek is on the ground. Rest in this position for 10minute and then do the same on the other side. For best results, repeat this four times.
  2. Lie on your back with your arms loosely on the ground beside you and your legs straight out, feet pointing up. From this position, bend one of your legs over the other and allow your lower back to twist gently in that direction. At the same time, let your head twist the opposite way. Repeat this the other way and keep your shoulders flat on the ground at all times. Repeat this exercise 20 times.
