Exercises/Mindful Movement
If you’re an athlete or someone who enjoys physical activity, try one of these mindful movements as your chill out activity.
Seated pigeon – improves mobility
Cobra – releases pressure in the spine.
Dolphin – stretches the upper back and shoulders, hamstrings, calves and foot arches at the same time.
Frog – improves strength of connective tissue around the ankles and knees, which makes it a great warm-up movement prior to lower-body exercises.
Supported Backbends – they very lightly stretch tight spots, while giving athletes a chance for deep relaxation, which speeds up recovery.
Fish
Bridge
Reclined Big Toe – strengthens the knees and can target the IT band (a common tight spot in runners) and can relieve backaches and sciatic pain. Using a band/strap makes it accessible for everyone.
Boat Pose – increases abdominal and hip flexor strength.
Bow Pose – stretches the front of the body, improves posture and strengthens the back muscles.
