How can you practice to enhance your sleep? This practice will focus on relaxing the nervous system and allowing you to tune into the breath. The science shows that the number one thing that we can do to improve our health-span and prevent chronic disease is to make sure to get good quality and ample sleep. In this Iyengar sequence, we will go through some of the asanas that will help you have a better bedtime, sleep, and relaxation. When we relax the nervous system our body and brains both respond. Not only that we can activate this response by your body position and your breath. Whenever we focus on our breathing, the breath slows down, and so do we, slow down both at a physical level as well as mentally. This class is led by senior Iyengar teacher Kathy Cook
Disclaimer: If you suffer from chronic insomnia, please consult a doctor and seek professional help.
Happy Practicing! And let me know if you have any questions.

[@neemajain9071]

Came across your channel today. Really liked it . Can you please suggest whether this practice should be done just before sleep time or otherwise when

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi Neema, welcome! This practice can be done anytime. If you can manage a few hours before bedtime that would be ideal. Having said that, also if you wake and cannot sleep bits can be done to calm your self and relax you. If you do earlier, then just pick one pose before sleeping to quiet your nervous system and re-engage the autonomic response. See how that goes. Enjoy your rest and of course remember to detach several hours before bed. Namaste, Kathy
