Summer is finally here and there's nothing like a relaxing vacation out of town to sabotage your studio yoga practice. Last summer in Athens, I was so excited to count my steps and realize I was averaging over 10 miles per day! But while the sights were great, by day's end, I could feel the tension in my legs and back from racking up the miles walking on ancient marble, concrete, and cobblestone in my fashionable, yet unsupportive, summer sandals.

Luckily, here are 10 postures I've demonstrated in First For Women for writer Ashley Lall's article. Check out the whole full article with step by step instructions HERE. Try them in the ease of your vacation bed at the end of the day to relieve tension and prepare for a good night's rest. Wake up refreshed for your day ahead!

Namaste,
