Seated Shoulder Stretch

Equipment: No equipment needed.

Instructions:

1. Starting Position:
- Sit on the floor in a comfortable seated position. You can choose a cross-legged posture or sit on your heels. Keep your back straight and shoulders relaxed.

2. Arm Position:
- Extend your right arm overhead, bending your elbow to bring your hand down towards your upper back. Use your left hand to gently press your right elbow back for a deeper stretch.

3. Stretch:
- Hold this position and feel the stretch along your right shoulder and the back of your arm. Make sure to keep your neck relaxed and avoid shrugging your shoulders.

4. Breathing:
- Take deep breaths, holding the stretch for about 15-30 seconds. Focus on breathing deeply through your nose and slowly exhaling through your mouth.

5. Switch Sides:
- Release the stretch gently and lower your right arm back to your side. Repeat the same stretch on the left side by extending your left arm overhead and bending your elbow.

6. Final Position:
- Hold the stretch on the left side for another 15-30 seconds, maintaining a comfortable and relaxed posture throughout the stretch.

7. Completion:
- Slowly return to the starting seated position, taking a moment to notice how your shoulders feel.
