Brush Knee and Twist is an excellent exercise that you can do when you are deep in practice, or when you are relaxed, in the garden, at work, or in your kitchen!
It is a nice exercise that can help relax tension in the shoulders, increase circualtion in the back and hips, and counteract sitting for long periods of time.
The circular movements are also wonderful for softening the chest and heart, and moving the stagnant Qi due to stress and tension.
