I just barely decided to read through a month's worth of emails and discovered this lovely, yet brilliant blog! I'm so excited and think it is a great idea. I don't have a whole lot to add at the moment, except my new favorite yoga move. It's very simple and is surprisingly helpful for all of us. It stretches out your hips, stomach, and lower back muscles...all of which become tight and strained when you spend a lot of time sitting in a chair or in your car.
Lay on your back, and bring your feet together so that your legs make a diamond shape. This is called reclined cobbler's pose. That's it. Just lay there and breathe in and out through your nose. Pay attention to your breathing and imagine that you are breathing air into your hips to let them open up even more. After you've been in that position for perhaps 15 breaths, and this will sound weird, but just do it, just slightly pull out on your upper buttocks. this will help your hips to open even more. Stay for another 15 breaths or so. It's incredibly relaxing and will help stretch out a lot of muscles that cause us pain...so it is awesome.
Okay, that's it for now. Love you all!!
