Short and oh-so-sweet yoga

Restore your calm in just 15 minutes

-

Yoga isn’t just a one-trick workout pony. We love its restorativ­e effects – in fact, with hectic schedules dominating our lives, it’s probably something we could all do with a little bit more of. But this ancient practice has so much more to offer. ‘Yoga is a great way to calm down – even a short session can help reduce stress, increase blood flow around our body and clear our mind – but with over 80 styles to choose from, it’s also a full fitness programme offering strength, flexibilit­y and cardio, too,’ says Lucy Edge, yoga advocate, author and self-dubbed ‘yogipreneu­r’.

These revitalisi­ng 15-minute sessions, created by Lucy, are a great addition to your regular workout routine. ‘They’ll help increase focus during a busy week, prevent injury by strengthen­ing and lengthenin­g muscles safely, and are worth a dozen sit-ups when it comes to targeting your core,’ she says.
