DAY 6 of the 6-Day Stress Release Series.
Movement is one of the most powerful forms of stress relief. Why? It gets us into our bodies, circulates blood, resets the nervous system, stimulates new breathing patterns, it helps to produce endorphins.
Today, we move through a series of postures we sometimes call the “Moon Salutations” - a more grounded, soothing flow for the nervous system, with all the benefits of a movement-based practice to reset and revive.
Have a folded towel or blanket or a cushion nearby. Two blocks (or full toilet paper rolls or cans) may help bring the floor closer in our standing poses.
