Heart openers are not only popular in yoga, they bring many benefits for everyone. Opening the chest stretches the front of the body, especially the heart and lung area. This trains the auxiliary breathing muscles. The improved oxygen intake has an invigorating effect on the body, cell metabolism is stimulated and concentration is improved. Especially during stress we often breathe shallowly and restlessly. Through the heart-opening yoga exercises, deeper breathing and a better quality of breath becomes possible again. Especially for those who spend a lot of time in a forward bent posture, heart opening exercises offer the perfect balancing posture.

Through heart opening exercises you can
  • balance your desk posture
  • strengthen your back muscles
  • Stretch the front of your body
  • widen your breathing space to deepen your natural breathing and improve breath quality
  • improve the mobility of the thoracic spine and shoulders
  • Practice more openness again (physically, mentally and emotionally)
