Increase the spread of your toes for better balance

≤15 min. A wide base with engaged arches creates a stable foundation for standing, walking, and of course for one legged balance poses in yoga. Here are some tips on how to strengthen the arches of the feet and gain greater flexibilty and spread to your toes while seated -- these actions can be done either on the floor or a chair.
