Standing Forward Bend Shoulder Opener

Stand comfortably with your feet a few inches apart.

Inhale deeply. As you exhale, gently fold your torso forward over your legs.

Interlace your hands behind you and let your arms fall over your back. If your hamstrings feel tense, bend your knees slightly and rest your belly on your thighs.

Relax more deeply into the pose with each exhale.

Begin to lengthen your exhales a bit more than your inhales; this will encourage the body to open and the mind to settle.

Stay here for five long, deep breaths.
