Warrior style

Auxiliary tools: yoga mat, solid chair.

Practice requirements: sit astride the chair, bend your right leg, align your knees with your toes, stretch your left leg backward, buckle your feet and step on the mat evenly. Inhale, raise your hands to your sides at shoulder height, turn your head to the right, look straight at your eyes and keep breathing evenly. Keep practicing on the right side for 30 seconds, and then switch to the left side.

Simple sitting abdominal breathing

Auxiliary tools: yoga mat, pillow.

Exercise requirements: keep sitting cross-legged and put a pillow under the coccyx to form a comfortable open sitting posture. Relax all your muscles. Don't inhale hard. When inhaling, let the gas slowly fill the lower abdomen and upper abdomen, slightly expand the ribs, and then slowly exhale the gas completely. The whole breathing process is as slow and deep as possible.

Cat stretching

Auxiliary tools: yoga mat, soft towel.

Practice requirements: support the ground with limbs, keep your knees width apart from your pelvis, and relax your instep. Support your arms vertically and relax your head and shoulders. Inhale, exhale, relax and sink your back and waist, expand your chest, and feel your spine relax. Inhale and restore, exhale, arch your back slowly, relax your head downwards, and increase abdominal pressure appropriately. Finally, restore the movement and pay attention to the coordination of breathing and body rhythm.
