Brush away the cobwebs

This simple yoga exercise really brushes away the cobwebs and sends a burst of energy right through your body. Try it today!

1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees relaxed, feet facing forwards, and eyes open so you can keep your balance.

2.Clasp your hands behind your back with your palms facing the floor. Slowly bring your hands up behind your back, as far as is comfortable.

3. Now, bend forwards from the waist so your back makes a right angle with your legs. Keep your head in line with your back (press your chin into your chest rather than stretching out your neck – you can strain your neck by looking upwards or forwards). See how far you can stretch your still-clasped hands above your head. Now breathe as slowly and deeply as you can and come back to a standing posture. Let your hands drop back to your sides. Repeat.
