I designed this yoga sequence specifically for my clients who are looking to relax the body and mind, promoting deep, restorative sleep These poses, when practiced regularly, can help you unwind, release tension, and prepare your body and mind for a restful night’s sleep. So, dim the lights, breathe deeply, and embrace the tranquility of this soothing yoga sequence for your best sleep yet. Standing Forward Bend Transition from the child’s pose to the standing forward bend to elongate the spine and release tension in the hamstrings. From the child’s pose, rise to a standing position with your feet hip-width apart. Inhale, and reach your arms overhead. Exhale, and hinge at your hips, folding forward with a straight back. Allow your hands to rest on the floor or grab opposite elbows for a gentle sway. Keep a slight bend in the knees if necessary. Hold for one to two minutes, breathing deeply to increase relaxation. Reclining Bound Angle Pose Transition to a gentle hip opener with the reclining bound angle pose to release tension in the groin and lower back. Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet together. Let your knees fall out to the sides, bringing the soles of your feet to touch. Place one hand on your heart and the other on your belly. Close your eyes, and focus on the rise and fall of your breath. Hold for five to 10 minutes, allowing your body to surrender to the pose.
