Yoga to release muscle tension combines movements and stretches for different parts of the body. Paying attention to how you feel can help you notice habitual tension and find more comfortable ways to move.
In this 30-minute class, you'll practice “Dynamic Bridge”, “Bridge Pose on Tiptoes” and “Cat Stretch Pose”. In the Bridge movement, you'll gently lift and lower your pelvis. Towards the end of the class, you'll do the breathing practice “Alternate Nostril Breathing Pranayama”. The class ends with time to rest lying down.
Don't force a stretch in a painful area. If you feel pain or excessive tension, reduce your range of motion.
