Get that Yoga Glow

Aside from alleviating backpains which definitely worked for me, Yoga has been proven to help relieve stress and increase one's patience.  It also serves as a great primer for workouts. The sets below are the positions I practice at least three times a week (or when my back calls for it in the morning). To avoid cramming my site with a long blog about yoga poses, I just pasted pictures and would recommend to do at least 5 to 10 slow breathing of each steps. It would be best to follow the sets - in this order.

Set 1. Warrior Pose


Set 2. Dancer Pose


Set 3. Triangle Pose

(do both left and right sides)

4. Forward Fold



5. Downward facing Dog


6. Cat-Cow Pose


7. Pigeon Pose


(do both left and right sides)
8. Chaturanga *warning - hardest



9. Cobra Stretch


10. Child Pose
