My first stretch of the day is the yoga pose, extended child’s pose, which I do in bed. I stay in that position, breathing purposeful and in my mind, saying my affirmations that encourage me to get out of bed (which I never want to do, so I have to make myself get up)

I stretch by folding forward, and then folding forward sideways. I then stretch myself tall. I also bend 90 degrees on the bed to give my back and nice stretch.

I like touching my toes, holding, and then slowly raising my body up my spine, feeling every vertebrae align, finally getting to my head. Breathe deeply throughout!
