Editing Morning Stretches for Flexibility and Energy (section)

=== Why Morning Stretches Matter ===
Stretching in the morning is a fantastic way to kickstart your body after hours of inactivity. After a night’s sleep, your muscles can become stiff, and your body may feel sluggish. Stretching helps to:

# '''Increase Blood Flow''': Stretching helps stimulate blood circulation, delivering oxygen to your muscles and brain, which promotes wakefulness and mental clarity.
# '''Improve Flexibility''': Regular stretching improves muscle elasticity and joint mobility, which can help reduce the risk of injury throughout the day.
# '''Boost Energy''': Stretching in the morning activates your muscles and encourages the release of endorphins, leaving you with more energy and a positive mindset.
# '''Enhance Posture''': Morning stretches can correct posture issues by lengthening tight muscles and engaging those that may have weakened from poor posture during sleep.
