3 Deep Chest Openers + MFR

3 Deep Chest Openers + MFR

Are your shoulders rounded & causing pain?

Feeling closed off physically and emotionally?

Need to open your body and mind?
But want to do so in a safe, gentle way?

When the world feels heavy on our shoulders we tend to move inward and close off.
This can cause our posture to become hunched or rounded with the shoulders and chest pulled inward.

Not only can this lead to a feeling of tightness or constriction in the chest and make breathing difficult, but it can close us off emotionally as well.

Being closed off means you feel guarded or resistant to vulnerability and emotional expression. It can manifest as an unwillingness to open up to others, to be defensive or reactive, or to avoid situations that could trigger emotional discomfort.

Both physical and emotional closure can be interconnected and impact overall well-being.

I invite you to roll out your mat, grab a tennis ball and some blocks or pillows and let’s encourage some compassion, receptivity, and openness to come to the surface.

Unlock tight chest muscles and experience a deep release with this chest opening yoga practice.

Focus on expanding your heart center through gentle, yet intentional postures that encourage relaxation and release through stillness in the poses and feel the tension melt away.

What you’ll experience:

🌸 Expansion of the chest and heart area, improving posture and breathing.
🌸 Creation emotional openness, receptivity and vulnerability.
🌸 Increases compassion for yourself & others.
🌸 Time to be still, relax, and release tension.

DETAILS:

👉 PROPS: Tennis ball, two blocks or pillows
🌟 All Levels Welcome
👐 Wrist Friendly
🧘‍♀️ Inversion Free Options provided.

See you on the mat 💖

Enjoy! Be well.
Remember to breathe.

I hear ya!

I don’t know about you but my back and hamstrings are almost always in dire need of
some self-love stretching.
These simple but effective stretches incorporate these areas perfectly without too much effort
PLUS
10 minutes is a sweet spot for stretching;
It’s just enough time to provide a gentle opening.

🖐 Wrist Friendly ?? There are no poses where there’s a lot of weight on the wrists, however, there is gripping and grabbing. So if you have tender wrists or hands, be gentle with them.

✨ Inversion Free ?? If you are inversion free — make sure when we lie down, that you prop so your head is the highest point as I did not perform this practice that way.


DETAILS:

👉 No props needed, unless you want ‘em.
🌟 Good for ALL Levels.
✨ Inversion Free means no downward facing dog, no head stand, no poses where the head goes below the heart. Great for those with glaucoma, cardiac issues, vertigo, acid reflux, or if you just don’t like going upside down.


Enjoy! Be well. 
Remember to breathe.
