Child’s pose is also called Balasana and is a child's resting pose. This pose is a very simple calming pose that you can do in bed too. It also stretches and strengthens the muscles of the hips, thighs, and ankles. Pregnant women and those who suffer from high blood pressure should avoid this exercise. This posture can be used as a resting pose during yoga practice after and before.
