, my first inclination is to call my mom and whine for a solid 15 minutes.

"There are so many elements of a yoga practice that support this shift, like the present moment awareness that allows our nervous system to focus on just one thing, and the breath as a medium to shift the stress response through its influence on the sympathetic nervous system," she explains.Cruikshank also believes there's an energetic shift that happens as we are moving and stimulate energetic pathways or meridians.
Start in low lunge with your back knee on the floor — feel free to put some padding under your knee here. "This standing inversion can be a great way to calm the mind in times of stress and intensity and a great way to shift your mood and perspective," Cruikshank notes.Feel your torso drape off of your pelvis as you hang here — feel free to bend your knees here if your hamstrings are resistant, or you can rest your head and arms on a nearby couch or chair.
Then, reach your right arm up and back until you feel a gentle stretch through the right side of your torso.
