A yawn for your side body...

Your body works together as the most brilliant, responsive web where nothing works alone. As many of us are breathing quite shallowly and utilizing muscles of our neck for respiration, this is an accessible motion to increase air flow into the side body which will help restore diaphragmatic function, soothe achey ribs, provide a lovely stretch for the scalenes and SCM of the neck (if you look to side foot!), elongate the QL's (low back relief), IT band and TFL muscle...so many benefits AND it feels so delicious. Your fascial body will say THANK YOU and if you're into TCM, a real gorgeous one for lung + gall bladder meridians.

I wish that I could include a short video (but photo below) because if you root through the feet, anchor into bottom hand (on chair as if you're pushing it away) and then arc the top arm over to create a side bend in the OPPOSITE side, you'll get a side body opener in both directions! Move downwards and upwards like an ocean wave.
