Shoulder Release Pose

We are excited to announce February’s #IYPOM (Inspire Yoga Pose of the Month) – Shoulder Release pose. This pose is mere magic for releasing tension in the shoulder and neck. It’s wonderful after a long day at the office or to incorporate into your morning routine after a rough night’s sleep.

Here’s what recent Inspire Yoga 200HR Graduate Karen (pictured) had to say about the pose:

“Shoulder release pose is one of my favourite poses. I love it so much that I make time for it on a nightly basis. Usually tension builds up from a full day of slouching, making it nearly impossible for me to sleep. This pose serves as a great counter pose for shoulder slumping, and it also increases shoulder mobility. My nights are more restful and my body is happier all thanks to this pose.”

Directions:

Option A at the wall…
