The perfect arm, wrist and shoulder stretch that can be done practically anywhere!
Garudasana is normally a standing pose in yoga, and one of the primary poses of Bikram yoga, but this pose can be modified in so many ways, based on how much space you have, the muscle groups you want to focus on and how much time you have.
I have chosen to show you the kneeling/ seated variation, where the focus is solely on the upper body.Those following me on Instagram, already know, that I managed to injure my wrist during a weightlifting session at the gym. I am already pretty much back to normal now and all I can say it this pose as been my go to pose during those painful days.I love when I can always rely on yoga to fix up my gym injuries and garudasana really did help with my wrist and shoulder pain
.Stay in this pose for up to 30 seconds, or 5 full breathes.Try to suck in your stomach (activates your pelvic area), so as to keep your back straight.
Lift and fingers as much as you can towards the ceiling.
Keep your gaze soft looking right between your arms, with a steady and soft neck.
