On day 16 of our 30 day yoga challenge I am going to show you 3 ways to use a yoga bolster. In this video we will do restorative yoga and yin yoga with the bolster to release your tight shoulders and upper back. I will show you how to use your yoga bolster to open your chest and finally I will show you my favourite way to use my bolster, which is for a psoas release. 

The first way we will use a yoga bolster in this video is to modify a yin yoga pose called bowtie pose. This yin yoga pose with the bolster will release your shoulders and upper back which will help you to improve your posture and relieve the stress and fatigue caused by shoulder tension. The restorative yoga bolster chest opener is probably the best antidote I know if you experience upper back pain. It will help you to improve your posture, confidence and breathing. Finally the restorative yoga bolster psoas release will help to relieve low back pain and stiffness, it relieves stress and anxiety as well as menstrual cramping.
