Stretch, move and bring awareness to the inevitable tension patterns in the body that arise from the concentrated effort of knitting. Enjoy a light hearted, gentle seated yoga practice specific to the (over) use of hands, and discomfort in the wrists, shoulders and upper spine. Breathe easy and keep creativity painless!
