Getting a little sentimental here on ya… This pose takes me back to when I first started yoga. I originally started practicing yoga because I had killer back spasms and major lower back pain. I had heard yoga was good for back pain but I had no idea how good it was or how much healing I could receive from my practice. That’s why I am so excited to share this pose with you.

Chest openers specifically target those muscles that are limiting your ability to take a deep breath. While there are lots of chest opening poses you can do, Warrior 2 is my favorite since it is what I call a “multi targeting pose” which means that it works and targets lots of yummy areas all at once, thereby, providing LOADS of benefits!
