Exhale into Chaturanga by bending the elbows, keeping your body raised a few inches from the floor.  Using your toes and hands for balancing and keep your body stiff, parallel to he floor from head to heals. Hold this pose while inhaling and exhaling. Gradually extend your whole body forward so your feet rest on the uppoer portion of the toes on the floor.  Below are other variations to try.

Bend your knees to the ground and then lower your upper body into Chaturanga.  This will help relieve the pressure in your legs and heels.  Keep your heels upwards and toes on the ground. 

This is a great way to feel your way into Chaturanga.  If you have yoga blocks, place them where your stomach and legs.  Your blocks should be placed on its side with the longer side horizontal just like the picture.  Lower your body into Chaturanga until you can feel the blocks.
