sun stretch

Taking a break from insurance billing to stretch and admire the sun.



"The Sun Salutation is a graceful sequence of twelve positions performed as one continuous exercise. Each position counteracts the one before, stretching the body in a different way and alternately expanding and contracting the chest to regulate the breathing." https://www.sivananda.org
