Yoga helps to detoxify the body, relieve stress, tension, and anxiety, build lean muscles, and improve flexibility. And, yes, anyone can do it. Whether it’s your first time on the mat or it’s been a long time since you practiced, there are a number of poses you can do no matter your level of flexibility.
As for the best yoga mat? We recommend the Anthropologie Travel Yoga Mat because it’s thin enough to fold up, making it easy to do yoga wherever you please. So roll out your yoga mat and give the six poses below a try.
P.S. Make the most out of your yoga sesh by applying the Skinvolve Body Boost Gel before your flow. Its formula uses ginseng and green tea to firm and tone your skin and alleviate muscle tension.

Warrior I and II
While your right foot stays facing forward, step your left foot to the back of your mat and turn your toes to a 45-degree angle to come into Warrior I. Bend your right knee over your right heel, and keep both heels flat on the mat. Point your arms upward. To transition into Warrior II, lengthen your stance and sink your hips lower. Your right arm will come forward as your left arm goes back.

This pose stretches the neck, spine, and back. While laying on your back, bend your knees and place your heels on the floor as close to your tailbone as possible. Pressing your inner feet and arms into the mat, push your tailbone upward and lift your hips off the floor.
