Reclining Pigeon pose or Dead Pigeon pose is a relaxation pose for your back and legs. In this pose, lie on your back, and position your legs in a number four formation. Next, hold your lower leg and pull it towards your chest for a deep lower body opening stretch. Performing this on both sides for 4-5 minutes will release all tension in your lower body. This pose soothes tight muscles around your groin, quads, lower back, and hamstrings.
