I tried this stretching routine and it made me feel amazing

Woman sitting cross-legged on a yoga mat in front of a sofa stretches one arm overhead and to the side. She is wearing athletic leggings and crop top and her brown hair is in a pony tail.

Some days fitting any form of movement into my day can feel like an impossible task, however, taking just a few minutes to stretch can make a huge difference to how I feel. On days when I don't have much free time or enough energy for a big workout, I look for a gentle bodyweight sequence to get me moving. This short stretching routine from Paola Pilates was just what I needed today.

Paola’s flowing movements make these stretches look graceful, and even if I can't quite match her elegant movement, the continuous movement felt great in my muscles and joints. It also put me into a calm, meditative state.
