This time of year, things can be super busy. We are often left feeling exhausted and we're only half way through our list.
Here is a short Ki Yoga sequence to help boost your Kidney meridian energy. When Kidney is in balance you feel motivated and flow through life's challenges with ease.
If any part of this sequence causes discomfort or pain, discontinue the practice.
