One-Legged Stand: Stand on one leg and try to maintain your balance for 30 seconds. Switch to the other leg. You can gradually increase the duration as you improve.
Heel-to-Toe Walk: Walk in a straight line, placing the heel of one foot directly in front of the toes of the other with each step. This mimics a sobriety test and challenges your balance.
Leg Swings: Hold onto a sturdy surface and swing one leg forward and backward. This helps improve dynamic balance.
Tai Chi: Tai Chi incorporates slow, flowing movements that enhance balance, flexibility, and overall stability.
Yoga Poses: Yoga poses like the tree pose and warrior pose strengthen your core and leg muscles, improving balance.
Stork Stands: Similar to the one-legged stand, but with your eyes closed. This increases the challenge and enhances proprioception (awareness of body position).
Balance Board: Stand on a balance board or wobble board, which provides an unstable surface to practice balance.
Mini-Squats: Perform shallow squats while maintaining balance. As you get more comfortable, you can increase the depth of the squat.
