Women's secret "weapon" is actually this thing

Introduced here are 6 classic yoga moves. Practicing them on the floor at home can help you relieve stress, keep a calm mind, make you more flexible and have better balance. It is also a secret weapon for staying slim.

1. Tree pose:

Start in mountain pose with your feet together, toes fully extended and extended, using your front thigh muscles to engage the muscles near your knee joints. Straighten your spine and lift your chest and shoulders. Put your hands together in a prayer position, with your thumbs close to your chest and your elbows bent close to your body. Then lift your left foot and place it tightly against the inside of your right leg (you can use your hands to help if necessary) to maintain balance. Make sure your right leg remains upright and hold for five breaths. If you have poor flexibility and softness, you can put your left foot on the calf or foot joint, as if you were a tree, rooted in the earth, and breathe deeply.

2. Crescent shape:

Start from the tree pose, take a big step back with your left foot, lift your heel, straighten your legs, bend your right knee, form a straight line front and back, raise your arms up, put your hands together, press down your shoulders and back, and hold for 5 breaths.

If you think yoga isn't a real workout, try this move! Your thighs will tell you how it feels.

3. Warrior shape:

Starting in a crescent position, place your left foot flat, turning your toes 30 degrees, leg still straight, and your hips 90 degrees. Keep your right heel in line with your left instep, your knee at 90 degrees, your hips, body, and shoulders relaxed and centered, your arms extended at shoulder height, your palms facing down. Stretch your fingertips as if to touch a wall. Focus your eyes on the middle finger of your right hand and hold for 5 breaths.

The name says it all: you are a very powerful warrior.

4. T shape:

Start in warrior pose, place your hands on your hips, lean forward with your torso straight, lift your left foot, find your balance, then bring your torso fully forward and lift your left leg until your torso is parallel to it. Fully extend your left leg from hip to toes. Keep your hips straight and face toward the floor. Stretch your arms out at your sides with your palms facing inwards, and hold for 5 breaths. If this move is too difficult for you, you can start by resting your legs on a chair.

This is a very challenging change, and you will slowly realize that you are now capable of doing anything.

5. Half Moon:

Start in a T shape with the fingertips of your right hand touching the floor (if you can't touch the floor, you can use something like a book to pad it), and transfer your weight to your right hand and right leg. Lift your left foot off the floor, rotate your left shoulder, and keep your hips and left leg parallel to the ground. To better maintain balance, look up and hold for 5 breaths. At the end, rotate your torso and hips forward to return to mountain pose.

The Half Moon teaches you to be still. Doing it now will solidify the other movements.

6. Triangle:

Start from the mountain pose, take two steps back with your right foot, turn your foot and the outside of your leg to the right at 90 degrees, move your left foot forward, use your leg as the center of the circle, turn your hips forward, and make your right heel and left instep form a straight line. Raise your arms with your palms facing down. Inhale as you straighten your legs (if this is not possible, bend your knees 90 degrees) and lengthen your torso and arms. Place your other hand on your shin, ankle, or floor, keeping your left and right arms in a straight line. Look up and hold for 5 breaths. Return to the starting position and start on the other side.

This movement makes you feel like you are lengthening, growing taller, and fully stretching your body.
