WOWs are a great way for you to stay on top of your exercise or emotional wellness program. Every week a new WOW will be added to keep you on your toes and excited!!  So check back often to maximize your wellness program.

This month’s WOWs will focus on stretching out your shoulders! Sitting at the computer can cause your shoulders and upper body to become tight and tense. Taking a couple of minutes to move your body can help with pain and discomfort. Place both hands on your ears and pull the elbows back while keeping your spine upright and chest lifted. Hold for 20’s and repeat for 2 sets.

Hip Flexor Exercise: Squats With Lateral Leg Raise

Sitting and working at our desk can be hard on our bodies, especially if we don’t get up and move around. Therefore, this month we have been working on improving our hip flexors by introducing an easy massage, a quick stretch and strengthening exercise with lunges. This week we will be working on strengthening the hip flexors by performing squats with lateral leg raise.
