Frequently Asked Questions

How much time do I need to dedicate to flexibility daily?

You only need 10-15 minutes. Focus on consistency over intensity; performing short, targeted mobility drills between meetings is more effective than one long session.

Can this help with stress management?

Yes. Deep, controlled stretching activates the parasympathetic nervous system, helping to lower cortisol levels accumulated during high-pressure startup decision-making.
