Yoga to relieve stress - III

3. Stretching your spine

 

Spine tension also accumulates while sitting down for a long time. Stand in the tadasana position. Inhale deeply while raising your hands above your head. Keep your arms straight while doing this. Raise them until they are parallel, with the tips of your fingers stretching to the ceiling. Now intertwine your fingers so that they form a horizontal bridge above your head. With your palms facing the ceiling, stretch upwards while breathing out. Your feet remain flat on the floor. When you have finished stretching, inhale and lower your arms.

 

Still standing in the tadasana, breathe in and raise your right arm above your head. Your arm remains straight, your palm faces in and your fingers stretch to the ceiling. Keep your hips facing forward and your feet flat as you let your arm lead you to a stretch to the left. Stretch three times. Breathe out as you stretch and in as you relax. Return to tadasana as you exhale. Breathe in and repeat for the other side.
