This June 21st is International Yoga Day, and it’s the perfect time to recalibrate and get stretching. While you can invest in new yoga gear, you can actually launch your wellness journey from the comfort of your own bed. That's right — yoga in bed is a thing! Stay in your pajamas while practicing these simple pillowtop poses to start your stretching routine. If you’re wondering where to start, we’ve got you covered with the best beginner yoga positions that you can practice right on your favorite SHEEX® Cooling Sheets

Corpse Pose

To begin your session, gently awaken your mind and body from a deep sleep with the corpse pose, one of the fundamental lying yoga poses. Lying flat on your back with your arms slightly outstretched, inhale and exhale with deep, steady breaths. Let the constant rhythm of oxygen flow through your veins and energize your body. Once you've taken a few deep breaths, carry that cadence throughout the rest of your new yoga routine atop a set of Original Performance Sheets. Designed to be wrinkle-free with stay-fit corners, these durable sheets won’t leave you with worries about budging when you get on with your session! Plus, they’re Ridiculously Soft® and moisture-wicking, so you’ll stay comfortable while practicing your pose.

Child's Pose

For this position, sit on your heels and roll your torso forward, bringing your forehead to rest on your bed. Keep your chest as close to your knees as possible, then lean your arms forward and sink your hips into the mattress. Hold this position for one minute while ensuring a cadence of deep breaths. With this pose, you’ll be making a lot of contact with your bedsheets, so you’ll want a comfortable and frictionless surface.

Locust Pose

Lying with your stomach against the mattress, slowly raise your arms behind you towards the ceiling for the locust pose. Then, gently lift your head, followed by your chest, while planting your toes into the plush layers of our Performance Cooling Mattress. This light stretch, combined with 10 to 15 breaths, will wake up the brain while strengthening your core. Since this position may make you work up a sweat, temperature-regulating sheets will help keep you cool.

Figure Four Pose

The figure four pose is a great stretch to help you relieve discomfort in your lower back if you feel sore around the hip and groin. Lay on your back with your feet flat on the floor. Cross your right ankle over your left knee, then bring your left leg up towards your chest by keeping your arms beneath your left knee. (You should look like the number four.) Stay with the stretch for 10 to 15 seconds, then switch your leg positions. With the figure four pose, incorporate a pillow under your neck for extra support. One of our go-to’s is the Infinite Zen Performance Pillow, which offers breathability, softness, and medium firmness with SHEEX Serene•Chill™ Memory Foam.
