If you are feeling stressed, anxious, or otherwise not relaxed, try some Yoga.  Yoga is a great way to redirect you thoughts and mind to a place of inner focus instead of on budgets, plans, after school games, and what you are going to prepare for dinner.  Yoga can definitely compliment other activities you employ to reduce stress.  For example, I choose to workout to help with stress, but doing Yoga on non-workout days is a better benefit.

Below are 10 Yoga moves that are simple enough for beginners but effective enough for anyone in coping with stress.  Face it, life will only get more stressful in the days to come.  Learning how to alleviate it could be a life saving tactic!

For each pose below, hold the yoga position for 5 deep breaths.
