Instant pick-me-up

Place both thumbs on your head and the rest of your fingers just below your eyebrows. Open your chest and relax your shoulder. Breathe through your nose.

While breathing through your nose, move your fingers towards your hairline so that you lift your forehead. Let your fingers touch your skull. Slowly lift your chin up and place both thumbs on your head. During the exhalation through your nose, slide with your palms down over your cheeks and slowly slide over your neck, chest, and armpits.

Lower your hands and relax.

It’s a great pose if you’re feeling a little tired or less fit.

Lifts up the face and the spirit at the same time. A great pose to do when you are feeling sad/ down.
