For this lie down with butt at the wall, if it is not possible at least try to close to the wall. Then extend your legs your legs up to the wall. Hold this pose up to one minute.

4. Reclining Pigeon

It is great to say about this pose because this pose can releases lower back and hips both which are hold a lot of stress.
Stay on your back then bring your right leg on top of left thigh. Reach your arms around your right leg, grab your shin, and pull knee your chest. (if you can’t reach your shin then grab the back of thigh only).
You can hold this pose for at least 3 minutes do it for another side.

This is one of the best pose for stress relief because it opens and stretches the shoulders, hamstrings & lower back.
Bring your hands, shoulders apart and hip, feet distant apart. Touch and press your hands to the ground and lift your butt toward upside, then bend your knees to bring movement to this pose.
