Sitting Chest Open

Expert Advice

Keep your shoulders down and away from your ears to prevent tension in the neck and ensure the stretch targets your chest and shoulders effectively.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Sit on the floor with your legs crossed and your back straight.
  2. Clasp your hands behind your back and straighten your arms.
  3. Lift your arms gently to increase the stretch across your chest and shoulders.
  4. Hold the stretch for 20-30 seconds, breathing deeply.
  5. Release and repeat if desired.
