Trouble sleeping? You’re not alone. It seems the more people I talk to, the more I realize insomnia is becoming sort of an epidemic. Especially for those on the awakening journey. A recent study reported that people who suffer with insomnia are much more like to experience health related problems such as depression, anxiety and diabetes. Not to mention the fact that you’ll feel like you’re dragging around all day.
But Don’t worry! We’ve got you covered. A great way to beat the night time restlessness is to establish a bed time routine. These quick and easy poses will allow you to get in touch with your breath slow your heart rate and calm your mind. When you are able to hold the poses you can effectively feel which part of your body is holding the tension thereby releasing it. How can we expect to sleep well when we are holding tension in our bodies?
