Simple Desk Stretches 
to Alleviate Stress

A few of these simple desk stretches done a couple times per day will 
help you feel energized, relaxed, and more focused. Our bodies are made to move, we are not meant to sit in a chair all day. The best thing you can do for your body is to take periodic stretch breaks.

By stretching at your desk you'll instantly notice how good it feels for your back, neck, shoulders and wrists. All your tension will disappear and combined with deep abdominal breathing it's perfect for stress relief.

Use deep abdominal breathing during these stretches. Do not push further than is comfortable.

1. Sitting up nice and straight in your chair, feet firmly on the floor, inhale, stretch your arms up over your head interlacing the fingers, palms away from you, 
exhale, stretch to the right side. 
Inhale, stretch up to the center, 
exhale, stretch to the left. 
Repeat once more. 
Inhale, stretch up to the center, exhale, slowly lower the arms back down.

Hello, my name is Sue-Anne Hickey and I am a Naturopath and Weight. Loss Specialist. 

 I used to be much weaker, had up and down energy all day with my energy crashing in the afternoon. I was hypoglycemic, constantly craving sweets, my body was overly acidic and I had eczema on my hands for over 20 years.

All that changed when I started following my plan for my body type.

The results were amazing! I healed myself completely and my strength and energy increased like never before. When I showed my clients how to follow their plan with Natural ways to lose weight by eating right for their type, they had similar results, healed their ailments and easily lost the weight they had been struggling to lose for so long.

Now I enjoy optimal health and high energy every day. I maintain my ideal weight, feel balanced and continue to gain strength and stamina as I get older. I'd love to show you how to have similar results.
