If you're looking to increase flexibility in your spine and get an amazing neck stretch, Plow pose is just the thing. Sometimes doing it on your own can be a little too intense, so if you do this pose with a friend, you can help support the weight of each other's legs. There will also be less pressure on your neck so you can spend more time in this restorative position.

If you work all day at a desk, you're not doing your neck, shoulders, or lower back any favors. That's why I love doing poses that gently stretch these much forgotten about areas.
Plow looks really bizarre at first glance, but take it from me - it feels amazing.

If you're looking to increase flexibility in your neck and spine, half wheel is the pose to do. It also tones your glutes, hamstrings, and quads, so it's a great pose to include in your stretching routine. To make it slightly more challenging and offer support to a friend doing a modified shoulderstand, do this pose called double bridge.

Mischa Barton rolled her luggage right into the Sundance Film Festival last night with her mom, and brought with her a bit of a snowstorm...literally. The falling flakes didn't get in the way of the festivities, however, it did make for some seriously cold people waiting in line for movies (yours truly included). It also certainly didn't stop Miss Barton from plowing right through the swag suites to pose and pick up some freebies.
