Stretching the psoas (the deep core muscle connecting your spine to your legs) counteracts the stiffness caused by prolonged sitting. Regular stretches provide pain relief, improve posture, enhance mobility, and prevent injury by bringing your hips and lower back into proper alignment.
You can also do this pose in bed or on a massage table, allowing the inactive leg to gently dangle off the side.
Be patient with this pose, breathe deep while you allow the muscle to release. Count to at least 10 while stretching each side. Namaste ๐
