Yoga Sequences to Relieve Stress and Anxiety
Share
When life feels overwhelming, yoga offers a gentle way to calm the mind and ease tension. Here’s a simple sequence to help you release stress and reconnect with your inner peace:
1. Child’s Pose (Balasana)Begin in this restorative pose by kneeling, stretching your arms forward, and resting your forehead on the mat. Focus on deep, steady breathing to ground yourself.
2. Cat-Cow Stretch (Marjaryasana-Bitilasana)Flow between Cat (arching your spine) and Cow (dropping your belly) to release tension and invite movement into your body.
3. Forward Fold (Uttanasana)Stand tall, then hinge at your hips and fold forward, letting your arms hang loose. This pose soothes the nervous system and relieves mental fatigue.
4. Legs-Up-The-Wall (Viparita Karani)End with a deeply relaxing pose. Lie on your back and extend your legs up against a wall, allowing the gentle inversion to calm your mind and reduce anxiety.
Incorporate this sequence into your day whenever you need to reset and restore balance. Just a few minutes can make a world of difference for your body and mind.
