Hi, I'm Christina and welcome to my channel ChriskaYoga in today's video
We will be doing a yoga sequence for tight hips.
If your hips are tight that is generally an indication that you are stressed anxious
maybe
Emotional about something we carry a lot of our emotions our stress or anxiety in our hip joints in our hip muscles
So it's always great to release them out and make sure that they are stretched out relaxed
