Wellness Wednesday: Yoga For Gratitude

Strike A Pose: Yoga For Gratitude
Take a moment to do the most important thing you will do all day. Join Ria Benerofe, Program Associate Penn Medicine Princeton Health and certified Yoga Instructor to extend your deepest gratitude for this moment and for all of the many blessings in which bring you joy in this life. In gentle yoga, the movement is slow, each movement is linked with breath, and we enter into the postures gradually- moving in and out of each pose first, and then finding a holding position. This preparation and fluid entry into postures protects and nurtures the joints, muscles, and connective tissues. With dynamic gentle yoga, you explore your pain-free range of motion and find your edge, so you can come safely and comfortably into the pose, depending on what's right for your body on any given day. Gentle yoga relieves stress, increases flexibility, calms the mind, and strengthens the body. Gentle yoga, in particular, can be relaxing and help enhance your range of motion.
