After you can keep your spine neutral with one sweep down and up, then stop at 30, 60, & 90 degrees for more of a challenge. Just remember IF there is pain … no gain.

You should feel a good stretch across the upper chest and the arms.

Improve Your Posture with Yoga – Part 4

Lillah — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 19:29:17 +0000

Here is part 4 in the series, how to create better posture with yoga.

Good posture can be elusive for many Americans as so many of our daily activities have us bending forward or “stooping over” in some fashion.

Slide your yoga mat up against the wall. This pose is a variation of warrior 1 or Virabhadrasana 1. We will use this pose to completely open the front thigh and chest in order to extend the spine and bring relief to the neck and shoulders. Use this pose as a stand alone when you have been at your desk for more than 2 hours and un-crimp your spine!
