While sitting can be wonderful and a well-earned break after laborious physical work, a lot of us spend most of our days sitting for prolonged periods without having done anything physical beforehand. This can leave our bodies feeling tight and tense, especially in your chest, shoulders, hips, hamstrings and lower back.
This is where yoga is the perfect remedy to long periods of sitting as lots of yoga postures target these areas. You can practice these postures as a yoga sequence or you can do them individually as and when required. Some postures I’ve included can even be done during the work day next to or at your desk, but you can also use a yoga mat, too.
