5 Minutes standing stretch for busy days

The past few days were extremely stressful for me and as I mentioned in a previous post, I didn't have enough time to workout. I also didn't have enough energy to do longer yoga sessions, but I didn't want to skip yoga as I made a promise to myself to practice it regularly.


That's why I chose this yoga video that's titled 5 min STANDING STRETCH | Full Body Yoga Stretch | Yoga without mat.






It's a quick full-body stretch that you can do any time of the day for a little energy boost or even after a workout to cool down. 


You don't need a mat to do this yoga class and you can do it anywhere as long as your feet are on a stable and non slippery floor.


This yoga session helped in releasing any tension in my body.


In my opinion, all yoga can be helpful, either in long or short sessions, you'll witness good results as long as you practice it. 


Why a five minutes stretch is better than doing nothing?


- Increases blood circulation and oxygen flow to the muscles, which helps to loosen them up and reduce stiffness.

- Improves flexibility and range of motion, making it easier to perform daily activities and reduce the risk of injuries.

- Enhances muscle coordination and balance, leading to better posture and alignment.

- Relieves muscle tension and stress, promoting relaxation and reducing the risk of chronic pain.

- Boosts energy levels and mental focus, making it easier to concentrate and be productive.

- Stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good hormones, which can improve mood and reduce anxiety.

- Helps to prevent muscle imbalances and postural deviations that can lead to chronic pain and musculoskeletal disorders.

- Can be done anywhere, anytime, making it a convenient and accessible form of physical activity.

- Can be incorporated into a daily routine without requiring a significant time commitment, making it a sustainable habit.
