This pose is perhaps one of the most relaxing yoga poses. It also aids in digestion when your knees are directly below your stomach because it massages your intestine track as you take deep breathes.

Seated Cat-Cow

Reclined Cobbler's Pose

This pose will help you relax and let your body focus on digesting all that food.

Supine Twist
