STRETCH YOUR HAMSTRINGS MINI YOGA LESSON Hamstrings are a group of muscles that cross the hip and knee joints and are responsible for walking, running, jumping, and many other physical activities. The More You Sit, the More You “Shorten” Your Hamstrings. Biking and running also tighten up the hamstrings. No worries! Stretching the hamstrings—for 15 minutes— will greatly improve your overall mobility and release tension in your lower back. In this mini lesson we give the back of our legs a good stretch, teasing the hamstring into lengthening. We also ‘pump” the hamstring and psoas muscles to further release tightness. For props have a chair ( for your feet), a long belt, strap or rope. You can do this stretch on your bed if you are chair-restricted.

How to set up for today's hamstring mini lesson. YOga Mini Lesson begins at 15. Usually 15 minutes--sometimes 16 or 17.

MINI YOGA LESSON FOR SEASONAL ALLERGIES
Pollen season! Yikes! Many of us suffer during this colorful but pesky season. The best thing we can do is to relax the stress that allergies put into action by keeping the relationship between sinus/nose, throat and lungs open and as relaxed as possible. Lifting the heart and visiting the upper lungs is important, since we tend to get tight shoulders and necks during the allergy season. I demonstrate four chest lifting options for you to practice at home. I introduce you to alternate nostril breathing. Finally, at end of the mini-lesson, we do bee-buzz breathing, which will vibrate your sinuses.
