STRETCH LIKE A WARRIOR
A common cause of tight hips is sitting too much. After a long day at a desk, take a moment to practice Warrior 1, which stretches the hip flexors.
From standing, step your right foot back in a long walking stride. Feet should be hips distance apart width-wise, and your back foot should be turned out at a 45 degree angle with the sole of the foot down. With both legs straight, press your back heel into the ground and engage your glute. Tuck your tailbone down. Then bend into the front knee until you feel a good stretch at the front of your right thigh. If you like, reach your arms up as well. Stay for five deep breaths, then switch sides.
AFTER EXERCISE
After a bike ride, a hike, or a run, stretch your hamstrings and IT band area.

STALKING YOUR Mind
Stalking the Mind is part of an ancient Indigenous American Medicine Way to tame your guilt, fears, and shame.
