7 Min Yin Yoga For Sleep | Bedtime Wind Down Practice

Bedtime Wind Down | 7-Minute Yin Yoga for Sleep with Anna Viktoria If your mind is still moving faster than your body at the end of the day, this short practice is for you. We begin with chandra bhedana, a calming left-nostril breath that cools the nervous system, then move through a supported forward fold and two long reclined twists, letting each exhale release a little more of the day. Everything here is done low to the ground and can be practiced on your mat or right in your bed. Come as you are, and let this be the last thing you do before sleep. WHAT YOU'LL NEED A mat or your bed A cushion or pillow (to sit on, and to rest under the knees) A bolster or folded blanket Something soft to rest your head or forehead towards GREAT FOR Falling asleep faster and settling a racing mind Releasing tension in the back, hips, and shoulders after a long day Calming the nervous system before bed An evening ritual when you only have a few minutes CHAPTERS 0:00 Welcome & Intro 0:19 Chandra Bhedana — Left-Nostril Breathing 2:13 Supported Seated Forward Fold 4:07 Knees to Chest 4:18 Reclined Twist, knees to the left 5:34 Reclined Twist, knees to the right 7:12 Final Rest "Where can you soften and let this day melt away?"
