A flow for every feeling
SLEEP BETTER
Having trouble getting that much-needed shut-eye? Yoga to the rescue! “Restorative postures are the perfect precursor to a good night’s sleep,” explains yoga instructor Fiona Clark. “When the parasympathetic nervous system is triggered, this signals to the body and mind it’s in a safe environment to sleep and restore after the day’s activities.” Try this before bed.
LEGS UP THE WALL
(a) Bring your hips to a wall, with your back flat on the floor and your bum as close to the wall as comfortable (and possible). Pop a pillow under your head if you want a little extra support or chill time.
(b) Gently raise your legs straight up, resting them against the wall. You can also place a pillow under your bum to ease any discomfort in your lower back and help you to hinge at the hips. Stay here for 5 to 15 mins for best results.
CHILD’S POSE
Kneel on the floor with your knees as wide as you feel comfortable and your big toes touching. Exhale and lean forwards to rest
