Yoga – Anti-Rheumatic Sequence

Here’s a short, standing practice to loosen up the joints in your arms and legs. By moving all the joints in sequence you systematically ‘oil’ all of the joints in turn. Try it everyday for a couple of weeks and I’m sure you’ll notice a difference, especially if you suffer with arthritis or rheumatism. If you experience any pain or are having a flair-up in the joint (it feels sore, is red or swollen) then don’t do these exercises for that joint. REST it for now and then when it feels easier do the movements. You can do the actions/movements on all the other joints though and this will help to increase circulation around the whole body which, in turn, will help the painful joint to heal.
