Do you feel like you carry all your stress in your shoulders? If you're chained to a desk all day and have some serious knots, try this pose to stretch your shoulders:• Start on your hands and knees. Hands should be shoulder-distance apart with palms flat on the floor.
• Bend your knees, engage your abs, and pull yourself back into what looks like an inverted V. Feet should be shoulder-distance apart.

• Relax your neck and body, then do it again for about a minute.
