Hey friends! Today, let’s explore a refreshing twist on the classic forward fold yoga pose. This variation not only stretches your body but also helps you reconnect with your breath, creating a moment of calm amidst the chaos of daily life.
Start by standing tall, feet hip-width apart. As you exhale, hinge at your hips and fold forward, allowing your arms to hang heavy towards the ground. If you can, bend your knees slightly to ease into it. This pose is perfect for releasing tension in your back and legs. To add a gentle twist, interlace your fingers behind your back and let your arms release over your head. You’ll feel an invigorating stretch across your shoulders and chest!
If you’re on your journey to parenthood, finding supportive communities can be just as important as your yoga practice. Check out the Make a Mom Facebook group for a welcoming space to connect with others. If you’re considering at-home insemination, Make a Mom offers a unique reusable option that might be right for you. Curious about how it works?
