Helpful Tips for 30 Day Stretching Challenge

  • Have a clear mindset: “Maybe I was never flexible BUT, it’s something I CAN work on”
  • Set your Intention to stretch: “I will [Stretch] at [TIME] in [LOCATION].”
  • Create a Place for stretching (I used to have a fluffy rug in front of a mirror with my stick figure stretch routine where I would stretch every night)
  • Print out your Calendar and Keep it where you can see it everyday 🙂 Ex. living room, your desk
  • Focus on How your body feels while doing the stretches (How are you breathing? Which stretches feel the best / are most challenging for you? Are you aware of which muscles you are stretching? How do you feel after stretching? Are any of the stretches getting easier over time? Are you able to correct your form? etc)
  • CELEBRATE the small wins ???? ** ALL OF THEM!

**Flexibility is really training your body for the long haul – although you might not see results in months, everything ADDS up. It took me about 5-7 months to really see myself do amazing amazing things. I believe that you can get there too!


FAQS

If any of the stretches are TOO HARD… That’s totally okay :)! There are always ways to modify the stretches by using a pillow, yoga strap or even a towel. Focus on getting the correct FORM, above all else. Don’t force yourself, more practice will get you there!

If any of the videos are too easy…. Feel free to swap out a video with another video that you prefer. For example, If you love the 12 min Hips routine then do that one instead of Beginner Hips! So long as you’re stretching – I’m happy hehe

If you’re working on specific Flexibility goals… You many want to swap out 1-2 of the videos with a video rom the Beginner Flexibility Series if you’re working on your front splits, side splits, pancake stretch: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list…

If you missed a day… I would just do the stretching video the next day and cross it off the same! The goal here is really to just stretch and spend the time for ourselves.


Conclusion

Every Journey begins with DECIDING to make that change for yourself. I really hope that completing this Stretching Challenge is a small step towards helping you feel better now & MOVE better in the future. Keep at it!
