Try an inversion

“Legs up the Wall”  pose is one of our faves when we need to unwind:

• Find an empty wall and lie on your back
• Stretch your legs straight in the air
• Scooch toward wall and rest legs on the wall
• Rest with legs on wall for 5 minutes
• {PS this is really good for digestion too}

Try a calming breathing exercise

• Place right thumb over the right nostril
• Breathe in through the left nostril for 4 counts
• Cover the left nostril with right ring finger
• Remove thumb from right nostril
• Breathe out of the right nostril for 4 counts
• Continue for 20 breaths or until calm

*This sounds complicated…it’s not!*
