Focus:
Focus on breathing, moving gently, and paying attention to your body. Looking for muscle length & tone here so do not force any positions or push into discomfort. Muscle tension is neurological. Flexibility is a skill, and more about control than forcing it.
These are longer holds; still, don’t force the positions. Breathe into them.
