I HOPE IT WILL BENIFIT A GREAT TO THE MASSES WHO HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM THIS PROBLEM WHILE WORKING.
Chest expansion: From a seated position at the very front of your chair, interlace your fingers behind your back and straighten your arms. Breathe into an open heart and lungs.
What it works: Stretches the upper body, head and neck
Benefits: Calms the mind
Seated Backbend: From a seated position at the very front of your chair, place your hands or fists on the bony points along your spine. Firm your glutes, push your hips forward, and lift your chest toward the sky. Lift out of your lower back, drawing your elbows back to expand your chest. Look toward the sky without dropping your head back.
What it works: Stretches the lower back and opens the heart center
Benefits: Calms breathing
Lateral Flexion: From a seated position, lift your arms over your head. Create dynamic tension by lifting your upper body and pressing down through your feet. Slide one hand down the outer thigh and reach the other hand toward the sky. Gently lean to the side without dropping your chest. Breathe into your sides, ribcage, waist, and chest. Keep your head in line with your spine. Don’t let your upper body fall forward. Switch sides.
What it works: Opens side and waistline muscles
Benefits: Tones the obliques
Seated Twist: From a seated position, bring your right knee up with the sole of your foot on the chair. Place your right hand next to you or behind the chair and sit tall. Beginning at the base of the spine, rotate to the right, bringing your left forearm around to hold your right shin. Use your core strength rather than your arm to deepen the twist. Lengthen your spine with every inhale; twist further with every exhale. Switch sides.
What it works: Internal organs, core, postural muscles
Benefits: Massages the internal organs, tightens the core, elongates the postural muscles from sitting all day
Extended Leg Forward Fold: From a seated position, extend your legs. Pull your toes back toward your body. Reach forward, placing your hands on your legs, ankles, or feet, or on the floor. Draw forward through the top of your head using your abdominals. Continue to reach forward toward your feet with your chest and the crown of your head. Firm your quads. Relax your shoulders back and down and enjoy the stretch.
What it works: Spinal muscles, legs
Benefits: Unkinks muscles along the spine, stretches rear legs
