Have you ever noticed that your legs start to feel stiff after a period of inactivity? Regular practice of these simple, relaxing techniques will help release tight muscles and joints in your legs and prevent tension from building.
Practice Guidelines
Before starting your yoga asana practice, please read the Practice Guidelines for helpful tips.
Diffuse lavender oil
Enhance your ability to relax and release tension by adding 5-7 drops of our Lavender Essential Oil to an aromatherapy diffuser while you are working or practicing the recommended techniques.
Our whole body relies on movement to stay limber and mobile. Regular movement increases circulation and hydrates our muscles and joints, allowing them to glide and move with greater ease. In this step, you’ll work on actively stretching your legs while increasing mobility in the hips, knees, and ankles.
Practice at work
You can practice the Leg Stretches session in your chair during a break at work.
