Child’s Pose is one of the most calming poses around. It stretches your hips, thighs, and ankles while giving your body a chance to give in to gravity. Make sure to keep your arms outstretched above you for the full effect.

Tree Pose

This pose is a deceptively challenging one that helps with your balance and stability. Find a spot on the wall to focus on, then lift your right foot to the inside of your left thigh. Once you feel steady, extend your arms in front of you with your palms together.

Cobra Pose

Not just a fun way to shed your serpent skin, Cobra Pose helps with your back and core muscles and is a great way to energize your body. As you press your hands into the ground, use your arms and back to lift yourself up, creating an arch with your spine.

Seated Spinal Twist

This pose is great if you’re feeling a bit stiff. Crossing one leg over the other, you’ll twist your spine from left to right and hold your arms straight out in a T-shape. Make sure to move slowly, allowing the twist to move through your body.

Bridge Pose

Bridge Pose is great to open up your chest and lengthen your spine. Squeeze your legs together, then press up on your arms and lift your hips up, creating an arch with your back. Make sure to keep your neck comfortable as you move through this pose.

Cat/Cow

This pose is great if you want to energize your body and is also a nice way to transition between poses. Start in a table-top position with your palms and knees on the ground. Move your spine up and down, arching your back as you exhale and curving it in as you inhale.
