Stand on your knees. Your knees and feet should be together; your legs should touch the floor with your back straight.
Then, hold your ankles with your hands and push your body forward while your head and shoulders backwards. Stay there for 10-15 seconds. And then get back to the previous position. Do this for 3-5 times. However, if you find keeping your knees and feet together challenging, there can be a gap between them. If you can't hold your ankles with both hands, grab one ankle with one hand and have a wall or strong support beside you. Alter your hands with the wall each time. Regular practice will correct the posture.
