A standing yoga sequence of about 9 minutes to undo long hours of sitting, with no floor work and no equipment.
Adriene designed this standing sequence for days when you have been sitting a little too long, whether at a desk or on the road. You move mindfully to wake things up, stretch out and invite fresh energy back in, without overthinking it. The video runs about 9 minutes, so it slots easily into a break at home.
Who Is It For?
Desk workers, drivers and anyone who has been sitting too long and wants a quick standing reset.
Who Is It Not For?
Not ideal if you want a sweaty workout or a deep floor stretch: this is a short, mindful standing sequence.
Key Benefits
Loosens a body stiff from sitting, brings fresh energy back and gives you a mindful movement break in under ten minutes.
Things to Keep in Mind
Move mindfully within a comfortable range, keep a chair or wall nearby if you feel unsteady and skip any pose that causes pain.
