Power Stretching for Deep Sleep

The fresh morning begins with a good night’s rest. It’s hard to say that ypu’ve had quality sleep after waking up with discomfort in your neck, shoulders or back. A full-body stretch before you go to bed will help ensure a good night of rest.
Full-body stretching before going to bed
1.     Lie down on your back and bend one knee.
2.     With your fingers laced, pull the bent knee all the way up towards your chest. The other leg should be straight, flat on the ground. Maintain this position for 15 seconds then alternate. This exercise helps to relieve your tired hip muscle.
1.     Lie down on your stomach and plant your hands next to your chest.
2.     Push off and straighten your arms to lift your chest upwards making sure the pelvis is fixed. Maintain this position for 10 seconds and repeat 3 times. This exercise helps to relieve the tensed muscle around spine.
