The front splits might seem out of reach, a pose just for dancers or gymnasts. However, practising the splits is one of the most effective ways to release chronic tightness and pain deep in the hips and lower back.

At CloudC Yoga, our core philosophy is that practice is not about forcing your body into a perfect pose but a process of self-discovery. As mentioned in the video, we are here to "slowly discover your own front splits through regular practice."

Back pain is closely linked to lifestyle choices and emotional well-being. Yoga and meditation can help relieve discomfort and release mental stress.

Some gentle yoga stretches can be helpful for beginners. Here to highlight the FOUR of them,

1. Cat Cow Pose (Sanskrit: Viralasana)

2. Thread The Needles (Sanskrit: Supta Kapotasanaa)

3. Supine Spinal Twist (Sanskrit: Supta Matsyendrasana)

4. Knees to Chest Stretch (Sanskrit: Apanasana)
