30 minute Traction Action
Gentle Yoga
•
31m
Practice one of Dani's favorite sequences. All of the little nuances throughout the practice are designed to release tension in the muscles and create space. You may not see a lot of big movement because a lot of the actions are invisible to the eye, but can be felt deep within the body. These traction stretches will help decompress any areas that may be tight or compressed due to how you sit, stand and simply go through your everyday life. Recommended props: 1 strap, 1 block
