Open Book Stretch

1 - Begin by lying on your side on a comfortable surface, such as a yoga mat. Extend your legs straight.
2 - Extend your arms straight in front of you, with your palms together.
3 - Inhale deeply and, as you exhale, lift your top arm (the one that’s not in contact with the floor) and begin to rotate your upper body.
4 - Roll your upper body backward and open your chest by twisting your spine.
5 - Keep your lower body and legs in the same position on the ground.
6 - Rotate as far as your flexibility allows, aiming to bring your top arm to the floor on the opposite side.
7 - Hold the stretch for 15-30 seconds while taking deep breaths.
8 - Inhale and return to the starting position.
