Recently, I’ve re-introduced myself to stretching.
I’m not talking about yoga. I’m talking about good old fashioned sit-and-reach stretches, like the kind you did in junior high school.
I started to realize that walking around in heels every day was making my calves and hips feel tight. I know I should stretch them out every day, especially because I wear heels, but I just didn’t think it would make a difference.
It actually made a huge difference – and as an added bonus it made my back feel better!
Stretching like I’m about to hit the soccer field feels good.Ā I stretch every day now because it’s a great way to release tension.
Maybe I should take up yoga, too.

Do you practise yoga? What kind of yoga do you do? Leave me a comment.
I tried stretching like that one day last year and pulled something.
Lesson: don’t stretch cold! š
Let’s do some yoga classes together š
