Look, I get it, you are dying
to have more energy, get more sleep, and/or lose weight but you are so stressed
out and overwhelmed that starting a new diet, exercise plan, or even getting 30
minutes more sleep seems totally impossible. And I know that some days you feel
like you are absolutely drowning in to-dos, conflicts, and obligations and you
just don’t have any time for yourself. Therefore, to help you get your head
above water, I have three stress reducing practices to offer you. And because
you are so busy, each one can be done in less than 1 minute.
Your first
stress management practice is a simple yoga pose called legs up the wall pose. Legs
up the wall pose, or viparita karani for you yogis out there, is an amazing
pose that re-establishes a sense of balance and promotes a feeling of calm and
well-being because it allows the lymph and blood from your legs to flow with
gravity towards your head and heart. This is especially beneficial if you have
tired and/or swollen legs resulting from prolonged sitting, standing, or
travel. This gentle inversion (the legs are above the heart and head) can help
bring relief for a headache, energize your tired body, or relax your mind to
encourage sleep and rest. And don’t worry, you don’t have to know anything
about yoga or even be flexible to do this pose.

pose whenever you need to rest. Stay for as little or as long as you can.
Let me know how it goes!
