It’s World Yoga Day, which is a great reminder that mobility matters.
Gentle stretching and regular movement can help reduce joint stiffness, improve flexibility and make everyday activities feel easier.
The key is consistency. Just a few minutes of movement each day is often more beneficial than an occasional intense workout.

If you feel up to it, there’s plenty of great resources to try yoga at home – check out this NHS instructional video:
