Total Body Chair Yoga/Stretch 20 Minutes (spine/posture focus) | Part 4/6

This week's chair yoga video focuses on bringing gentle movement to the spine as well as opening up the chest and neck muscles, all with the intention of promoting better posture.


All you need for this class is a comfortable chair to sit in. I recommend using a chair that does not have arms (so you can use it from multiple directions) and is not too soft (so that its easier to maintain good posture). If you need you can always add a thin pillow to the seat for more comfort.


*If you experience a lot of back pain you will want to take these moves very gently and intentionally (i.e. focusing especially on good posture for the poses and moving in your current range of motion only). If this routine bothers your spine at all you can also try checking out one of my alternative chair yoga videos. I really believe there are enough exercises in the world that we can focus on doing the ones that best for our particular body (i.e. we don't have to do the exercises that cause our body "bad" pain). I'll make sure to link my current favorite alternative chair yoga video I have filmed below in case you decide that something different would work better for you. :)
