A quick 5-minute yoga stretch can do wonders for your body and mind. Here’s a simple routine to help you feel good:
1. **Cat-Cow Pose (Marjaryasana-Bitilasana)**: Start on your hands and knees. Inhale, arch your back and lift your head (Cow Pose). Exhale, round your spine and tuck your chin (Cat Pose). Repeat for 1 minute.
2. **Downward-Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana)**: From your hands and knees, lift your hips up and back, forming an inverted V-shape. Hold for 1 minute, pedaling your feet to stretch your calves.
3. **Standing Forward Bend (Uttanasana)**: Stand up and fold forward from your hips, letting your head hang and your hands reach towards the floor. Hold for 1 minute, gently swaying side to side.
4. **Cobra Pose (Bhujangasana)**: Lie on your stomach, place your hands under your shoulders, and lift your chest off the ground. Hold for 1 minute, keeping your elbows slightly bent.
5. **Child’s Pose (Balasana)**: Sit back on your heels, stretch your arms forward, and rest your forehead on the mat. Hold for 1 minute, breathing deeply.
Remember to move mindfully and listen to your body. Enjoy your stretch! 🧘♀️🍑👙
