Eagle Arms, This stretch will open your upper back - a fairly hard to reach area unless you deliberately practice this pose.

Step One: Sitting in your chair, lengthen your spine. Open your arms wide into a T shape then wrap your right elbow underneath your left elbow. Try to also cross your wrists but if that is not accessible then stay with only your elbows crossed.

Step Two: Lift your elbows up so that they are at the same level as your shoulders, bring your hands towards you, so that they are directly on top of your elbows. Now take five deep breaths into your upper back. As you inhale, feel the space you are creating with your breath and as you exhale focus on releasing tension.

Step Three: After you have taken five breaths, inhale and lift your elbows slightly above your shoulders, until your body tells you to stop. Then, as you exhale, lower your elbows slightly below your shoulders. Repeat this three times.

Step Four: Open your arms wide again, switch sides and repeat the same breathing pattern.
