This is such a great practice for anyone nursing or spending a lot of time with a babe in their arms. As much as I try to sit up straight and be mindful of my posture throughout the day, I still find myself with an achey back, tired arms and legs, and tight shoulders all the time. I would recommend this for anyone feeling tense, sore or stiff – it somehow manages to target all of problem areas in one go: the neck and shoulders, spine and ribcage, hips and hamstrings. The entire practice is low to the ground as well, which I find really soothing when I’m low on energy.

This is one of those deceptively slow and simple practices that somehow goes way deeper than you realise at the time. I would recommend it for anyone with a sore back, chest, neck and shoulders, for anyone tired or low on energy (hello sleep regression!), or for anyone anxious who carries tension in the upper body and/or struggles with shallow breathing when feeling stressed.
