Abdominal Activation

This is a wonderful opening practice for the trunk and abdominal area.

It is designed to safely elongate these areas, helping to release tension and promote a sense of relaxation and well-being.

This practice can be particularly beneficial if you’ve been sitting for long periods or feeling stress in your midsection.

Enjoy the process and the journey to a more relaxed state of being.

Namaste.
