Yoga is a practice that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and body types. It is an ideal evening habit, as these exercises will help relax the muscles and mind after a busy day. The most important thing is to take care of yourself in order to understand what your body needs.
Today we want to show you 8 nighttime yoga poses to relax your body and mind. They will help you sleep better at night.
1. Hero Pose (Virasana)
Get into a comfortable position on your knees: your buttocks on your heels, your feet on the floor, gently stretch your knees and ankle area.
2. Cat and Cow Pose (Marjaryasana and Bitilasana)
From Hero Pose, roll forward onto all fours. To come into Cat Pose, as you exhale, draw the crown of your head and tailbone toward the floor, arching your back and drawing your shoulder blades apart. As you inhale, draw the back of your head and tailbone toward the ceiling, rounding your back. Move from position to position, coordinating the movement with your breath, feeling your spine relax and lengthen.
3. Child’s Pose (Balasana)
From the previous position, place your buttocks on your heels and your chest between your hips. The big toes are touching, the knees are wide apart.
4. Four-up wall pose (modified Sucirandhrasana)
Lie on your back with your buttocks 25 cm from the wall. Place your right foot on the wall and place the ankle of your left foot above your left knee.
5. Legs against the wall (Viparita Karani)
Extend your legs and place them against the wall. Bring your tailbone close to the wall; your buttocks may even touch it.
6. Happy Baby (Ananda Balasana)
Again, bring your knees towards your chest, grab your toes with your hands. Then pull your heels towards the ceiling, keeping your tailbone on the floor. Your knees will be in the area of your shoulder blades.
7. Reclining Goddess Pose (Supta Baddha Konasana)
From the previous position, lower your feet to the floor. Bring them together in front of you and separate your knees out to the sides, bringing your heels as close to your pelvis as possible.
8. Corpse Pose (Savasana)
Release your feet and extend your legs, allowing your feet to relax in a relaxed manner.
