Melt Into One of These Expert-Recommended Yoga Poses Each Day to Release Stress and Sore Muscles

You can do a simple Mountain Pose anywhere and anytime, said yogi Anita Perry. It's simple "but so beneficial for the mind and body," providing a lengthening and posture-improving stretch in your feet, legs, and spine.

• Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your hands by your sides or pressed together in front of your chest as pictured.
• Elongate through your torso, engaging your core and staying strong from your thighs. Imagine that you're lengthening your whole body through the crown of your head.
• Take at least five deep breaths.
