Total Body Tension Melt
About this Course
Let "Feel Good" therapist Sunaina Rekhi help soothe your body from head to toe. In this 15-session course, you'll learn yoga, breathwork, and other exercises to reduce cortisol (less stress!) and release tension and negative emotions from your body. The results? A healthier, happier you.
*This course uses Kapalbhati breath (pranayama), a cleansing and invigorating rapid-breathing technique. Consult your doctor before practicing if you have high or low blood pressure, are pregnant, experience dizziness, or have problems with your eyes, ears, nose, head, lungs, or heart. To practice: Sit in a comfortable position with a long spine. Inhale to about 3/4 capacity, allowing your belly and your lungs to expand. Contract (pump) the low belly sharply, exhaling forcefully through the nose. Inhale passively as the abdomen relaxes. Repeat the rapid exhales and passive inhales several times until the sensation becomes familiar. Increase the tempo when you are able to maintain the rhythm.
