Stretching Journal (29/6/16) and examples of restorative poses

After a 5 days break caused by health issues I'm back at it again. Here's how today's session looks like:
  • Exercise 1 (forward bend): Touch Toes - 15 sec / 10 reps
  • Exercise 2 (backbend): Cobra - 15 sec / 5 reps 
  • Exercise 3 (backbend): Locust Pose 3 variations - 10 sec / 2 reps x3 
  • Exercise 3 (side bend): Side bend - 3 sec / 9 reps x2
  • Exercise 4 (Twist): Marichi's Pose - 10 sec / 5 reps x2 
  • Exercise 5 (backbend): Bird-Dog Pose - 10 sec / 3 reps x2
  • Exercise 6 (forward bend): Cat Pose - 10 sec / 5 reps
And of course restorative poses between each exercise.
Locust pose variations 



Dog-Bird pose, alternate left and right


Cat pose 


Child's Pose and Knees to Chest. Hold one of those poses for 30-60 seconds between each exercise so your spine can realign.
