um today we're just going to do several moves that calm the mind and also just stretch the body this can be done by itself or you know after any time any yes to next workout all right so um we're doing this obviously in the chair and that's pretty much all you need is is that in your breath all right so we'll take a quick pause and get started okay so before we get started just want to point out that we took our shoes off so you don't need shoes for this one but if you like to keep shoes on for support of your feed that's fine but this is your choice okay so let's just get our body uh warmed up a little bit let's do some inhale and exhales inhale exhale good you can close your eyes or open your eyes and yeah and exhale good and one more inhale [Music] all right so first thing we're going to do is just the mountain pose and this pose is sort of like the foundation for for all the moves that we're going to do so um you basically want to sit in your chair with your feet hip distance apart okay solidly your feet are solidly on the floor all right all right now take a deep breath inhale always through your nose and exhale through your mouth or through your nose and you can close your eyes think like you're having a long spine and your shoulders hips and ankles your shoulders and hips and ears are all in alignment deep breath exhale give me two more inhale and exhale one more inhale and exhale just calm the mind and your hands can either be on your thighs or to your sides all right so our first move is going to be just a cat Cow so from this mountain pose we're going to take a deep inhale and as we exhale we're going to round the back pulling the navel into the spine chin the chest hold and inhale we're going to lift our head up and Arch our back look up to the sky and exhale to the same thing navel to back spine and let's do a couple of these so inhale again exhale [Music] very nice and one more inhale push them back gently and exhale [Music] and come back

  6. Love this! My cat, LeeLee, was tribing me the whole time & jumped up on the back off the chair when I moved forward. Mochi is in good company ❤ Thank you for this video ~

  7. After nearly a month, have been given the go ahead to start gentle exercising…hooray. But, boy, am I stiff after all that sitting and lying about. So it's back to square one with my exercises. Am allowed now to go out walking, but not if it is windy or wet…needless to say, every day last week was very windy and very wet…typical English weather.

  8. This was so wonderfully relaxing. I feel so blessed that I found your channel. You and your mom are helping me so much. Thank you❤🙏🙏❤️
