Himalayan Siddhaa Akhar, yoga expert and Akshar Yoga Kendra founder, told Ht Lifestyle that yoga helps calm the body and mind, bringing a peaceful balance before bed. Moreover, it is also easier to fall asleep when you turn yoga into your night mode when the body begins to associate soft stretch marks.
He said: “Yoga trains us to strength and disciplined our body, but it is also a way to calm the mind. Ten to fifteen delicate breaths with deep breaths will help free the pressure accumulated during the day. In the ultimate, this soft practice creates a precedent for your body, preparing it to relax.”
Yoga Expert listed 5 poses you can do at bedtime:
1. Balasana (baby post)

- On the rug, touch your toes, knees and sit on the heels, stretching your hand forward when your forehead lay on the rug.
- Breathe slowly and deeply.
- Stay for 1-2 blows and allow yourself to relax.
2. Drown Posa butterfly (SUPTA BADDHA KONASANA)

- Collect your feet together and your knees fall to the bottom.
- Let your hands rest on your stomach or near you. This disguise opens the hips and is slowed down and sustainable.
- Stay for a while, soaking time to rinse all the hassle from the day.
3. Korova (Marjasan-Bitilason)

- Come to all four. Inhale, lifting your breasts and caudal bone (cow position).
- Exhale, around your back and season your chin (cat position).
- Repeat slowly for 1 to 2 beats. This sequence is not offered by the built -in tension.
4. Legs- up- on the wall (Viparita Karani)

- The posture is well suited for a deep rest of tired legs and legs. Lie on your back when your feet were resting to the wall.
- Let your hands relax behind your sides, your eyes closed.
- Take slow breaths while remaining in this position for 5 – 10 minutes.
