Utthita Parsvakonasana

Option 1:
Add a bind!
To deepen the stretch and open the shoulders (yum)

Adding the arm bind behind the back in Extended Side Angle pose allows an extra stretch for the shoulders, chest, and upper back.
This gives a sense of expansion and release (it’s giving heart opener 💓💓)

This would be a progressed variation so please remember to be gentle with your body and modify the bind as needed - we don’t want any strains or overstretching 🙅‍♀️

Option 2:
Keep that range small
Our bodies are different every. single. day. Some days we feel extra stretchy and other’s a little less.

If you’re just starting your yoga practice, building up to a pose, or in a warm room you might like to keep with that reduced range.

Sometimes the reduced range IS our full range. This is dependent on joints and muscles and all kinds of things.

Remember: yoga (as well as Pilates and barre) aren’t a competition with yourself or anyone else. If you move how feels good for YOU, today, then you’ve succeeded.
