Start your day with these three energising poses. Focusing on rotation for detoxification & heart openers for awakening & pranayama breathing technique for calming & centring.

1. Dirga Pranayama 

A three part breathing technique that relieves stress & tension. Calming the mind & setting a focus. Take in inhale for a count of three, hold the breath for a count of three then exhale for a count of three.

Repeat at least 5 times or as needed.

2. Supta matsyendrasana or supine twist

Laying on your back open the arms to a T position. Cross the right leg over the left leg like you are sitting on a chair and drop the knees to the left hand side. Hold for 5-7 breaths & repeat the other side.

3. Añjaneyāsana or Low lunges

Pressing into the front heel, connecting the back knee to the Earth & drawing the hips down. Lift your heart & arms to the sky. You can try this interlacing the fingers behind the back to open the chest. Hold for 3-5 breaths & repeat the other side.

We hope you try out these energising tips and feel the same benefits as our founder Emma does.
