With New Years Eve fast approaching, most of us are feeling a bit of a holiday burnout. If you have 30 seconds, and a chair consider trying this quick stretch routine. Jill Miller, a yoga instructor says breathing deeply while you stretch oxygenates the blood, and perks up your brain! You may also notice tight muscles relaxing a bit….

Sit on the edge of a chair, with your feet flat on the floor. Place your right hand in chair seat behind, and left hand on your right thigh. Take a deep breath, and exhale as you slowly twist to the right, looking over your right shoulder. Hold the position for a few deep breaths. Slowly return to center, and repeat in the opposite direction…… Prevention  January 2013

 

May you have a healthy and pain-free new year.
